abacaj/mpt-30B-inference. MPT-30B, released last week, is an extremely capable Apache 2 licensed open source language model. This repo shows how it can be run on a CPU, using the ctransformers Python library based on GGML. Following the instructions in the README got me a working MPT-30B model on my M2 MacBook Pro. The model is a 19GB download and it takes a few seconds to start spitting out tokens, but it works as advertised.
