What it does

Kalavai is a platform made for AI devs and researchers so they can pool resources together and go beyond the limits of the hardware they own. We manage the technical complexity and facilitate distributed AI workloads.

Aggregates compute from spare GPU capacity. Contribute to kalavai-net/kalavai-client development by creating an account on GitHub.

Kalavai is an open source platform that unlocks computing from spare capacity . It aggregates resources from multiple sources to increase your computing budget and run large AI workloads. Kalavai helps teams use computing resources more efficiently. It acts as a control plane for all your computing resources , wherever they are: local, on prem andfrom github.com

    I have a favour to ask. I’ve been working for a while on Kalavai, a project to make distributed AI easy. There are brilliant tools out there to help AI hobbyists and devs on the software layer (shout out to vLLM and llamacpp amongst many others!) but it’s a jungle out there when it comes to procuring and managing the necessary hardware resources and orchestrating them. This has always led me to compromise on the size of the models I end up using (quantized versions, smaller models) to save cost or to play within the limits of my rig. Today I am happy to share the first public version of our…

  • Lovable▲1,477

    Hey HN! Previous CERN physicist turned hacker here. We've developed a way to make AI coding actually work by systematically identifying and fixing places where LLMs typically fail in full-stack development. Today we're launching as Lovable (previously gptengineer.app) since it's such a big change. The problem? AI writing code typically make small mistakes and then get stuck. Those who tried know the frustration. We fixed most of this by mapping out where LLMs fail in full-stack dev and engineering around those pitfalls with prompt chains. Thanks to this, in all comparisons I found with: v0,…

  • I wasn't quite sure if this qualified as "Show HN" given you can't really download it and try it out. However, dang said[0]: > If it's hardware or something that's not so easy to try out over the internet, find a different way to show how it actually works—a video, for example, or a detailed post with photos. Hopefully I did that? Additionally, I've put code and a detailed guide for the netboot computer management setup on GitHub: https://github.com/kentonv/lanparty Anyway, if this shouldn't have been Show HN, I apologize!
