As an alternative to running LLMs on your desktop you can sign up to Groq AI for fast API calls.
If you don’t have a beefy PC + GPU combo, Groq AI is a good option for running hosted AI models from inside SCM.
Advantages
- You can get started with a free API key.
- Groq AI inference times are very fast.
- You can use current hosted models without running them on your PC.
- Good option if local AI models are too slow for your machine.
Disadvantage
- Low rate limits. You wont be able to run more than 1 AI thread
- Rate limit wait times can be long. SCM is able to wait between calls to maximize throughput though
