Why host your own LLM?
I host an LLM because it&#x27;s cheaper for my use case. 
To many people focus on how an LLM interfaces with users but I believe the best most reliable use for an LLM is for analyzing free form text and having it put that data into quantifiable fields or tagging. 
Things like this would have taken an interns or overseas laborers weeks to months to do can now finally be automated.
