🔧 Single Binary Release

LocalAI is expanding into offering single binary releases, simplifying the deployment process and making it easier to get LocalAI up and running on any system.

For the moment we have condensed the builds which disables AVX and SSE instructions set. We are also planning to include cuda builds as well.

This release introduces several exciting new models to our gallery, such as 'Soliloquy', 'tess', 'moondream2', 'llama3-instruct-coder' and 'aurora', enhancing the diversity and capability of our AI offerings. Our selection of one-click-install models is growing!

v2.13.0

2 weeks ago

Hello folks, Ettore here - I'm happy to announce the v2.13.0 LocalAI release is out, with many features!

Below there is a small breakdown of the hottest features introduced in this release - however - there are many other improvements (especially from the community) as well, so don't miss out the changelog!

Check out the full changelog below for having an overview of all the changes that went in this release (this one is quite packed up).

This is the first release with model gallery in the webUI, you can see now a "Model" button in the WebUI which lands now in a selection of models:

output

You can choose now models between stablediffusion, llama3, tts, embeddings and more! The gallery is growing steadly and being kept up-to-date.

The models are simple YAML files which are hosted in this repository: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/tree/master/gallery - you can host your own repository with your model index, or if you want you can contribute to LocalAI.

If you want to contribute adding models, you can by opening up a PR in the gallery directory: https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/tree/master/gallery.

Rerankers

I'm excited to introduce a new backend for rerankers. LocalAI now implements the Jina API (https://jina.ai/reranker/#apiform) as a compatibility layer, and you can use existing Jina clients and point to those to the LocalAI address. Behind the hoods, uses https://github.com/AnswerDotAI/rerankers.

output

You can test this by using container images with python (this does NOT work with core images) and a model config file like this, or by installing cross-encoder from the gallery in the UI:

name: jina-reranker-v1-base-en
backend: rerankers
parameters:
  model: cross-encoder

and test it with:


    curl http://localhost:8080/v1/rerank \
      -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
      -d '{
      "model": "jina-reranker-v1-base-en",
      "query": "Organic skincare products for sensitive skin",
      "documents": [
        "Eco-friendly kitchenware for modern homes",
        "Biodegradable cleaning supplies for eco-conscious consumers",
        "Organic cotton baby clothes for sensitive skin",
        "Natural organic skincare range for sensitive skin",
        "Tech gadgets for smart homes: 2024 edition",
        "Sustainable gardening tools and compost solutions",
        "Sensitive skin-friendly facial cleansers and toners",
        "Organic food wraps and storage solutions",
        "All-natural pet food for dogs with allergies",
        "Yoga mats made from recycled materials"
      ],
      "top_n": 3
    }'

Parler-tts

There is a new backend available for tts now, parler-tts. It is possible to install and configure the model directly from the gallery. https://github.com/huggingface/parler-tts

🎈 Lot of small improvements behind the scenes!

Thanks to our outstanding community, we have enhanced the performance and stability of LocalAI across various modules. From backend optimizations to front-end adjustments, every tweak helps make LocalAI smoother and more robust.

Introducing LocalAI v2.11.0: All-in-One Images!

Hey everyone! 🎉 I'm super excited to share what we've been working on at LocalAI - the launch of v2.11.0. This isn't just any update; it's a massive leap forward, making LocalAI easier to use, faster, and more accessible for everyone.

🌠 The Spotlight: All-in-One Images, OpenAI in a box

Imagine having a magic box that, once opened, gives you everything you need to get your AI project off the ground with generative AI. A full clone of OpenAI in a box. That's exactly what our AIO images are! Designed for both CPU and GPU environments, these images come pre-packed with a full suite of models and backends, ready to go right out of the box.

Whether you're using Nvidia, AMD, or Intel, we've got an optimized image for you. If you are using CPU-only you can enjoy even smaller and lighter images.

To start LocalAI, pre-configured with function calling, llm, tts, speech to text, and image generation, just run:

docker run -p 8080:8080 --name local-ai -ti localai/localai:latest-aio-cpu

## Do you have a Nvidia GPUs? Use this instead
## CUDA 11
# docker run -p 8080:8080 --gpus all --name local-ai -ti localai/localai:latest-aio-gpu-cuda-11
## CUDA 12
# docker run -p 8080:8080 --gpus all --name local-ai -ti localai/localai:latest-aio-gpu-cuda-12

:heart: Why You're Going to Love AIO Images:

  • Ease of Use: Say goodbye to the setup blues. With AIO images, everything is configured upfront, so you can dive straight into the fun part - hacking!
  • Flexibility: CPU, Nvidia, AMD, Intel? We support them all. These images are made to adapt to your setup, not the other way around.
  • Speed: Spend less time configuring and more time innovating. Our AIO images are all about getting you across the starting line as fast as possible.

🌈 Jumping In Is a Breeze:

Getting started with AIO images is as simple as pulling from Docker Hub or Quay and running it. We take care of the rest, downloading all necessary models for you. For all the details, including how to customize your setup with environment variables, our updated docs have got you covered here, while you can get more details of the AIO images here.

🎈 Vector Store

Thanks to the great contribution from @richiejp now LocalAI has a new backend type, "vector stores" that allows to use LocalAI as in-memory Vector DB (https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/issues/1792). You can learn more about it here!

🐛 Bug fixes

This release contains major bugfixes to the watchdog component, and a fix to a regression introduced in v2.10.x which was not respecting --f16, --threads and --context-size to be applied as model's defaults.

🎉 New Model defaults for llama.cpp

Model defaults has changed to automatically offload maximum GPU layers if a GPU is available, and it sets saner defaults to the models to enhance the LLM's output.

🧠 New pre-configured models

You can now run llava-1.6-vicuna, llava-1.6-mistral and hermes-2-pro-mistral, see Run other models for a list of all the pre-configured models available in the release.

LocalAI v2.10.0 Release Notes

Excited to announce the release of LocalAI v2.10.0! This version introduces significant changes, including breaking changes, numerous bug fixes, exciting new features, dependency updates, and more. Here's a summary of what's new:

Breaking Changes 🛠

  • The trust_remote_code setting in the YAML config file of the model are now consumed for enhanced security measures also for the AutoGPTQ and transformers backend, thanks to @dave-gray101's contribution (#1799). If your model relied on the old behavior and you are sure of what you are doing, set trust_remote_code: true in the YAML config file.

Bug Fixes :bug:

  • Various fixes have been implemented to enhance the stability and performance of LocalAI:
    • SSE no longer omits empty finish_reason fields for better compatibility with the OpenAI API, fixed by @mudler (#1745).
    • Functions now correctly handle scenarios with no results, also addressed by @mudler (#1758).
    • A Command Injection Vulnerability has been fixed by @ouxs-19 (#1778).
    • OpenCL-based builds for llama.cpp have been restored, thanks to @cryptk's efforts (#1828, #1830).
    • An issue with OSX build default.metallib has been resolved, which should now allow running the llama-cpp backend on Apple arm64, fixed by @dave-gray101 (#1837).

Exciting New Features 🎉

  • LocalAI continues to evolve with several new features:
    • Ongoing implementation of the assistants API, making great progress thanks to community contributions, including an initial implementation by @christ66 (#1761).
    • Addition of diffusers/transformers support for Intel GPU - now you can generate images and use the transformer backend also on Intel GPUs, implemented by @mudler (#1746).
    • Introduction of Bitsandbytes quantization for transformer backend enhancement and a fix for transformer backend error on CUDA by @fakezeta (#1823).
    • Compatibility layers for Elevenlabs and OpenAI TTS, enhancing text-to-speech capabilities: Now LocalAI is compatible with Elevenlabs and OpenAI TTS, thanks to @mudler (#1834).
    • vLLM now supports stream: true! This feature was introduced by @golgeek (#1749).

Dependency Updates 👒

  • Our continuous effort to keep dependencies up-to-date includes multiple updates to ggerganov/llama.cpp, donomii/go-rwkv.cpp, mudler/go-stable-diffusion, and others, ensuring that LocalAI is built on the latest and most secure libraries.

Other Changes

  • Several internal changes have been made to improve the development process and documentation, including updates to integration guides, stress reduction on self-hosted runners, and more.
