RsLLM is AI pipeline 100% in Rust for Transformer/Tensor code that is leveraging the Candle framework from Huggingface. It represents a systems programming language approach to AI model interaction and stream analysis. It can run locally on GPUs, it is focused on support of MacOS devices equipped with M1/M2/M3 ARM GPUs. This AI pipeline is designed for developers and researchers aiming to integrate local large language models (LLMs) with Rust, bypassing the need for external dependencies and Python code for chatbots and other AI programs. At its core, RsLLM emphasizes the utilization of local LLMs for generating text, images, and speech within a Rust environment, offering a robust suite of features for real-time data stream analysis and AI-driven content creation. RsLLM can run a Twitch channell chat bot and NDI video/audio with generated Stable Diffusion images and TTS Speech output through software compatible with NDI. You can setup OBS to take the NDI feed and setup your Twitch channel then have a full chatting and speaking/image generating customizable Twitch channel. Fully AI driven, you can automate a Twitch Streamer somewhat. Also you can analyze MpegTS streams or OS System stats too, if desired you can combine the two and have chat users comment and query the stream analyzing it effectively.
- Local LLM: Utilizes Candle's Rust-based LLMs, Mistral and Gemma, for direct and efficient AI interactions, prioritizing local execution to harness the full power of MacOS Metal GPUs.
- Comprehensive AI Analyzer: Embeds a sophisticated AI analyzer capable of processing inputs and generating outputs across text, voice, speech, and images, facilitating a seamless flow of AI-generated content. (Work in Progress)
- Voice and Speech Integration: Plans to incorporate Whisper for voice-driven interactions, akin to Alexa, allowing users to communicate with the toolkit using voice commands and receive streaming text inputs in response. (Planned Feature)
- Image Generation and NDI Output: Supports generating images from text descriptions and outputting through NDI for a wide range of applications, including real-time content creation and broadcasting. (In Beta Testing)
- TTS Support: Candle implements TTS using MetaVoice (default, WIP), OpenAI TTS API (high-quality, real-time), and Mimic3 TTS API (local, free). MetaVoice is being optimized for Metal GPUs, while OpenAI TTS API generates premium speech at a cost. Mimic3 TTS API requires running the mimic3-server but offers a good alternative to OpenAI TTS API. Mimic3 GitHub
- Twitch Chat Interactive AI: Integrated Twitch chat for real-time AI interactions, enabling users to engage with the toolkit through chat commands and receive AI-generated responses.
- Stable Diffusion Image Generation: Supports either Candle stable diffusion or the AUTOMATIC111111 API server. https://github.com/AUTOMATIC1111/stable-diffusion-webui/
Candle, a project by Huggingface, offers Rust-native LLMs like Mistral and Gemma, optimized for Metal GPUs on MacOS. This integration facilitates local execution of LLMs, ensuring high performance and low latency in AI model interactions.
While RsLLM's primary focus is on running local LLMs, it also provides support for the OpenAI API, enabling users to leverage external AI models when necessary. This feature ensures versatility and broad applicability in various AI-driven projects using custom models.
RsLLM excels in analyzing real-time data streams and generating AI-driven content, including text, images, and speech. It aims to create a dynamic interaction model where voice inputs can be converted into text commands for the LLM, and the generated outputs can be streamed back as voice or visual content.
- Ensure Rust and Cargo are installed. Rust Installation Guide.
- Ideally a MacOS system with an M1/M2/M3 ARM GPU. Nvidia may work, need someone to fix it up since I do not have Nvidia GPUs.
- NDI Library for OBS NDI streaming output. This is optional.
-
Clone the Repository:
git clone https://github.com/groovybits/rsllm.git
-
Navigate to the Project Directory:
cd rsllm
-
Compile with Metal GPU Support and NDI SDK support:
./scripts/compile.sh # Script handles NDI SDK dependency and DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
- Copy
.env.example
to.env
and customize the settings, including the OpenAI API key if intending to use external AI models.
RsLLM is designed to facilitate a wide range of AI-driven operations, from generating text-based content to analyzing network streams and processing visual and audio inputs. Advanced features like NDI audio output and voice-to-text input processing are in development, aiming to enhance the interactive capabilities of the toolkit.
-
Use the scripts in the ./scripts directory.
./scripts/compile.sh # Build RsLLM ./scripts/broadcast_personality.sh # Full command line shown for most features (use personalities in ./personalities dir as an arg) ./scripts/mpeg_analyzer.sh # Experimental MpegTS Analyzer mode (WIP) ./scripts/mpeg_poetry.sh # Fun poetry about MpegTS Broadcasting with stream input prompt injection ./scripts/system_health.sh # System health status from OS Stats prompt injection
-
Broadcast to OBS with NDI with full pipeline:
./scripts/broadcast_personality.sh buddha
-
Running with Candle and OS Stats for AI System Analysis:
cargo run --release --features fonts,ndi,mps,metavoice,audioplayer -- \ --candle_llm gemma \ --model-id "2b-it" \ --max-tokens 800 \ --temperature 0.8 \ --ai-os-stats \ --sd-image \ --ndi-images \ --ndi-audio \ --system-prompt "You create image prompts from OS system stats health state." \ --query "How is my system doing? Create a report on the system health as visual image descriptions."
RsLLM is enhancing its output capabilities to include NDI (Network Device Interface) support for images and TTS (Text-to-Speech) audio, facilitating high-quality, low-latency video streaming over IP networks.
- (OPTIONAL) NDI SDK Installation: The compile.sh script will download the libndi.dylib for you. If desired, you can download and install the NDI SDK from here. This SDK is useful for viewing the NDI output and exploring other tools.
- Configuration Steps:
- Add
--features ndi
to the Cargo build command to include NDI support in your build. - Run
scripts/compile.sh
, which will retrieve the libndi.dylib that works best for MacOS. - To ensure the library is correctly recognized when building with
cargo --features=ndi
, set theDYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
environment variable:
export DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH=`pwd`:$DYLD_LIBRARY_PATH
- Add
- Additional Configuration: Logging into the Huggingface Hub via the CLI can resolve some potential warnings. Execute
huggingface-cli login
to authenticate.
Candle, our core Rust framework for LLM interaction, now includes MetaVoice, a groundbreaking Text-to-Speech (TTS) technology. As this feature improves, it will enable pure Rust-based LLM, TTI (Text-to-Image), and TTS functionalities, seamlessly integrated with Metal GPU optimizations for MacOS.
- Development Status: The MetaVoice integration is done and being optimized in Candle to match the quality of the reference implementation.
- Anticipated Benefits: Once fully optimized, MetaVoice will significantly enhance the toolkit's ability to generate lifelike speech from text without cost and with low latency on a local LLM. It will also provide the ability to one-shot learn a voice from a small clip and generate speech from it. For now, you may want to use OpenAI for quality/real-time generation of speech audio.
RsLLM's mission is to research and explore the implementation of a versatile, high-performance toolkit for AI-driven content creation and analysis on MacOS, leveraging the full potential of Metal GPUs and Rust's efficiency.
