AI Experimentation - some hardware to use

[Alex J Lennon]

Hi DoES community,

I'm doing quite a lot of work with generative AI at the moment as I
believe there's a lot of value in knowing how to use these tools.

We've been setting up some hardware to support experimentation and play,
and you are invited to come and learn with us if you fancy.

This is a development system and will be upgraded and modified as the
mood takes me, but I shall attempt to keep it running in a somewhat
stable manner

We currently have Open WebUI (AI chat web portal) which is back-ended by
Ollama (runs various LLM models)

The GPU is an underpowered 1080Ti at the moment but we're shortly going
to upgrade this to an NVidia 5090

I'm in the process of properly supporting web access, image vision
(reading and OCR), and image generation (stable diffusion).

Then we'll move into MCPs to connect to e.g. KiCad and Meta Trader.

All I'd ask is that if you do use this please share anything you learn
with the rest of us

Enjoy!
