alt Hacker NewsThank you Aleph Alpha team for making it open.
We as many other’s were curious to try and benchmark it.
On that note, as a small gesture of support, we’ve hosted and made Kolibri-1 free for anyone to try for the next few days.
No GPU. No setup. Just try it. tesseracted.com/kolibri-1-chat/

It's been surprisingly good at the things I threw at it (history, culture and conversing, web search)!
Not impressed. I asked it how to run itself (giving it the Huggingface link) on limited RAM i.e. less than stated as needed and on llama.cpp and true to what we read about "it will tell you when it doesn't know" that's almost all I got: It doesn't know, it told me I should go click on tabs in the Huggingface interface for more information. This was with extended thinking on.
No, I'm not gonna do that, I asked you to do that Mr Kolibri.
Also feedback on that interface: It's very annoying while answering. It almost immediately shows a list of sources, which on my screen fill up all the space and then when it starts answering it keeps those in view but also scrolls down the tiny part of actual text its outputting but I can't scroll up to start reading from the top, coz it keeps scrolling. I have to wait until it's completely done generating its output.
Friendly note: your website's font at its current size is pretty bad on a non-retina display before zooming in.
