Ask HN: What's the best self hosted/local alternative to GPT-4?
There is literally no alternative.You’re stuck with openai, and you’re stuck with whatever rules, limitations or changes they give you.There are other models, but specifically if you’re actively using gpt-4 and find gpt-3.5 to be below the quality you require…Too bad. You’re out of luck.Wait for better open source models or wait patiently for someone to release a meaningful competitor, or wait for openai to release a better version.That’s it. Right now, there’s no one else letting people have access to their models which are equivalent to gpt-4.
