purpose:: AI system that empowers both individual growth and community coordination while preserving privacy and autonomy. Enables members to choose their level of AI engagement - from fully private personal assistance to opt-in collective intelligence.
- dev questions
- multi-modal?
- context window size.
#### Assumptions
- 1000 person community
- High trust environment
- Members prioritize efficiency with privacy controls
- Community self-regulation works at this scale
- Regular system audits maintain accountability
- single centralized RAG can be used for public and private vector storage
- Privacy controls are technically enforceable
- For a **local AI system** with a **Mixtral 8x7B** model, the **primary advantage** lies in **privacy, customization, and control**, allowing fine-tuned, community-specific responses. However, frontier models like **GPT-4** or **Claude** excel in **creative brainstorming** due to their vast pretraining on diverse datasets, though the gap narrows with **local fine-tuning** and a robust **RAG pipeline** for up-to-date information. While frontier models offer broader, faster idea generation, a local model can perform comparably with specialized knowledge and deeper, community-relevant insights, albeit potentially with **slower responses** and **smaller context handling**.
##### Performance Targets
- Peak Load: 500 QPS
- Response Time: <150ms (99th percentile)
- Daily Queries: 150k
- Token Volume: 150M/day
- Storage Growth: 50%/year
##### Basic Components
##### Infrastructure
- Kubernetes cluster on-prem hosting serverless functions
- Vector store for RAG (targeting 20ms latency)
- 3x A100 GPU nodes for inference
- Load balancer for request routing
- chat layer: Hugging Face Spaces + Open Assistant (LAION) chat UI + Rasa for conversation flows
##### AI Stack
###### Model
choice: Mixtral 8x7B because the Mixture of Experts architecture is better at task specialization and 32k context can handle long documents.
