Key Points

  • The post asks which locally run language model people would use to brainstorm solutions for research-level mathematics problems.
  • It emphasizes interest in real, demonstrated success stories rather than hypothetical recommendations.
  • The request is framed as peer advice from the LocalLLaMA community, suggesting a focus on practical outcomes with local models.

If you are stuck on a research level math problem, is there any local model you might turn to to give you ideas?

I am most interested in examples where you have had real success.
