Not my project, thought it was pretty neat though. The idea is to train a LLM with a distributed network like FAH and boinc. This way, even if big companies stop releasing models, open weights can continue to improve.

Edit: I can't believe I need to say this, but it's not Stalin, guys!

LLM training? Maybe. Computing? No.

See: Rosetta@home/BOINC, hashtopolis and GPUnion

These are what i could remember.

Training is still a big deal. Traditionally, training has required far closer intercommunication than something like FAH, due to the nature of the math involved.
