  • Yeh, i did some looking up in the meantime and indeed you’re gonna have a context size issue. That’s why it’s only summarizing the last few thousand characters of the text, that’s the size of its attention.

    There are some models fine-tuned to 8K tokens context window, some even to 16K like this Mistral brew. If you have a GPU with 8G of VRAM you should be able to run it, using one of the quantized versions (Q4 or Q5 should be fine). Summarizing should still be reasonably good.

    If 16k isn’t enough for you then that’s probably not something you can perform locally. However you can still run a larger model privately in the cloud. Hugging face for example allows you to rent GPUs by the minute and run inference on them, it should just net you a few dollars. As far as i know this approach should still be compatible with Open WebUI.
