LocalAI (via) “Self-hosted, community-driven, local OpenAI-compatible API”. Designed to let you run local models such as those enabled by llama.cpp without rewriting your existing code that calls the OpenAI REST APIs. Reminds me of the various S3-compatible storage APIs that exist today.
There are many reasons for companies to not turn efficiency gains into headcount or cost reduction. Companies that figure out how to use their newly productive workforce should be able to dominate those who try to keep their post-AI output the same as their pre-AI output, just with less people. And companies that commit to maintaining their workforce will likely have employees as partners, who are happy to teach others about the uses of AI at work, rather than scared workers who hide their AI for fear of being replaced.
