Petals is a platform for decentralized inference and fine-tuning of large language models, using a network similar to BitTorrent.

AI researchers, ML engineers, data scientists, and hobbyists can use Petals to run large language models collaboratively.

Petals works by distributing the computational load of running large language models across a network of participants, much like BitTorrent.

Yes, Petals aims to provide free access to its distributed network for running and fine-tuning large language models.

Currently, Petals supports web and Linux platforms.

Yes, Petals allows for collaborative fine-tuning of large language models.

Inference can be up to 10 times faster compared to traditional offloading methods.

No, you can run Petals on your existing hardware and tap into the distributed network for additional computational power.

Yes, Petals provides a dashboard for monitoring the progress of your tasks.

You can choose from a variety of large language models available on the Petals network.
