Everything you need to start self-hosting an open LLM.
Run it on your own hardware. No API keys. No per-token bill. Nothing leaves your machine.
The full path with @vllm_project: batch inference in Python, an OpenAI-compatible API server in one command, and quantized models that cut an 8B from ~16GB of weights to a quarter of that while keeping 98-100% accuracy.
Walkthrough by @cedricclyburn.

Just dropped a new overview of Automation Orchestrator, the new workflow canvas add-on for Red Hat Ansible Automation Platform. Your existing playbooks, job templates, and EDA rulebooks become reusable nodes instantly, no rewrites needed. youtu.be/CUPWc0sIDVw

Securing AI is a software engineering challenge. When we isolate tech behind closed doors, we shift risk rather than solving it. Read my latest blog on why open source models, agentic harnesses, and transparent sandboxing are essential for IT security: red.ht/4waaMWo.

There’s been BIG open source AI news this week, from Kimi K3 weights dropping 🔥 (shoutout day-0 support on @vllm_project) to @NVIDIA’s new open secure AI alliance (including yours truly @RedHat). Let me show you what it’s like in SF right now at the @aiDotEngineer World Fair, because from the models to the harnesses and beyond, *everybody* is building on open source. – at San Francisco, CA
