npx dalai alpaca install 7B

This will download the alpaca models onto your computer.

Next, let’s add llama models. Open your cmd application and type in this command:

npx dalai llama install 7B 13B

That’s it! You’ve successfully installed the alpaca and llama models on your computer.

LOADING the user interface

Once you’ve installed everything you need, you can run the following command to start the web UI server:

npx dalai serve

This command will start the server, which will allow you to interact with your installed models through a web interface.

Once you’ve started the server, you can open up your web browser and navigate to http://localhost:3000. This is where you’ll find the web UI for your installed models.

Now you can have fun playing around with your models and using them for various tasks! That’s it for this tutorial – happy exploring!
