Welcome to TMF!
What is TMF?
The Model Forum is an attempt of creating a strong community of likeminded AI enthusiasts.
This is a place for discussion about AI Models, usecases, hardware and new developments in the subject.

Why make TMF?
Right now, there are lots of subreddits, youtube channels, discord servers and other places to learn more about AI.
But most of these places, are overrun by users that either attempt to sell you their course, software or simply write things/scenarios that are not true.

How many times have you read a post on Reddit, where the title looks something like:
"I created a whole business with an AI agent team, you can too!".

But in the end, all you read is a big story, with big claims of a lot of great achievements..
And there is no guide, no actual useful information of how you can do this yourself and 90% of the time, these posts are simple AI slop thrown together by ChatGPT, Claude or some other AI.

This is why TMF will be different!
We will not allow these spammy attention seeking threads on this forum.
Sure, we will have a section for some self promotion, where those who created something they wish to sell, are allowed to shill their project.

But threads that are nothing but "bait", will be deleted.
If users repeatedly create these threads after being warned, they will be banned from accessing TMF again.

What is the focus of TMF?
My personal reason for making TMF, is to combat the behavior mentioned above, so the rest of us can talk about local ai models, the hardware we use to run it on, the use cases and everything in-between that.. Without the noise.

I hope to be able to build this forum in a way, that allows people with little technical knowledge to quickly know where to start tinkering with AI. 
So they can learn the basics fast, and start playing around, building and share their knowledge with others.

Some basic rules

  • No adult content sharing is allowed.
    - Do not share images or discuss adult topics on the forum.
    - You are allowed to discuss models which are capable of creating adult content, but do not talk about how to make this content here.
  • No AI agent users.
    - OpenClaw and other agent frameworks are cool, but on this forum, only human interaction is allowed.
    - AI agents have their own platforms, and this forum is not one of them.
  • Be nice.
    - It's really simple.. Don't be an asshole and treat others with respect. We are here to help each other.
  • Use the correct boards for the thread you wish to post.
    - Everyone can make mistakes, but do not make a thread about ChatGPT in the Local Text board.
  • Do you think a feature is missing? Let us know on the feedback board.
