I just install Ollama on a MINISFORUM Mini PC AI X1 Pro. 48 GB of RAM is allocated for GPU usage. On the AI PC itself using the qwen3:30b model, questions are answered in seconds. But OpenCode running in Home Assistant on my HA Yellow Pi 5 & 8 GB of RAM takes 3-4 minutes to answer “What is 2 + 2?…

2+2 on a LLM? Search the internet and local learnt database. Find twenty million hits. Analyse everyone to look for any variations from the common answer 4. After 2 megawatts of electricity used it finds one reference to a child’s exam paper from a grade 2 exam paper that was loaded up thirty years…

Note I never said that was a good use of or a good idea? And yes it must load up all the tokens before it can answer. If what’s going on what I think is going on. His llm had to load up all its startup context THEN process it to get the answer.. If I cold start mine it an take up to 30 MINUTES (do…

The math problem was just a speed test. Which OpenCode failed miserbly. On my AI PC I can ask what is 2 + 2 and it answers in seconds. In OpenCode it takes many minutes. Forget about math, ANY question I ask on my AI server regardless of model is answered in seconds, not minutes. If there are a…

[image] NathanCu: Some models are let’s just say… Chatty and like to dump a 1000 tokens thinking about an issue before it gets to the point. Qwen is one of those Early Mistrals too If you use Mistral “Vibe” (stupid name) on a desktop you can see it talking to itself - like three or four boffi…

It’s not a Pavlovian hatred, but deep understanding of the current internal algorithms that brings contempt. Sorry, you’ve been oversold, hook line and sinker! I’ve been in (and out) of the industry to have seen the cycles and blatant hype that is integral to its’ survival. Yes, the industry is bui…

And contempt isn’t appropriate for this forum. Go make your case in other forums where people debate change for the social good and leave the home assistant enthusiasts to their hobbies. That’s all I’m suggesting. The OP asks a simple question and your response not only provided nothing positive to …

[image] mterry63: perhaps just link to one of your previous posts on the topic and leave it at that. What might actually be useful is if someone wrote a community guide on the use of AI agents or LLMs from the home automation perspective.

Probably needs at least a section in the Cookbook so several can contribute - there are so many ramifications. Edit: Oops, I see there is one already. But like all the cookbook it’s a bit haphazard. (Not a criticism - that’s the way the Cookbook works.) Maybe a few interested parties should collab…

Oh, you’re right… I haven’t looked at it in a while… Changes can be discussed on this thread . While I have experience with the tech, I actually haven’t set anything up on my HA instance, so my assistance would be more theoretical and practical.

Why does a simple math query take minutes in OpenCode using local AI?
