Gerganov is the guy who makes llama.cpp in case anyone wasn't aware.

I have been expecting WASM to take over as a common platform and eventually put browsers out of business for awhile now. I feel like browsers are bloated and monopolized.

Considering how much of the whole local LLM ecosystem relies on llama.cpp, very much like the Open Source Video Ecosystem and FFmpeg, Computer Scientists and Hackers should look towards Physicists of the past Century who managed to make their Einsteins known to a general public. With Fabrice and Georgi and others we still have a ways to go before the value of their contributions is widely known. Ok for Georgi (and Aaron whose Reddit enabled much of their training datasets)our future AI Overlords might take care of erecting (virtual) monuments to celebrate them ;-)

The keypress latency is infuriatingly noticable for me with Chrome + Sonoma. It's beautiful though!

I think you're supposed to actually run this in your terminal... The browser bit is just a demo... Presumably compiled to web assembly.

Interestingly it's really physicists. Met the dean of the faculty where Georgi graduated the other day (according to his linkedin), and tried to make a joke that "faculty of math is all the hype, but math of physics seems where all the range was" and he answered: "it is a very logical consequence", and that was all he said.

IMHO cause only 0.1% of conventional devs can get anywhere near to what llama.cpp is in terms of complexity and this... percieved easy which physicists munch tensor flows.

I wish help popup is bound to '?' instead of 'h', which would free up h/l to be used for left/right, completing the h+j+k+l vi experience.

Yeah bit of a missed opportunity since comments are trees, so just having up/down is tedious when ideally you want parent/child and sibling traversal.
