You can even set how the context window is managed (truncate middle, rolling). 
Is there a way to run two models in parallel so that the next token can be sampled using both their outputs? Like averaged or multiplied or whatever?

Most of the apps let you change the temperature, top K, top P. 

I'm leaning towards formatting being different, which would be harder to fix as an end user.

But apparently Todd said the game isn't going to be wildly different. Not like FF XIV getting a crazy relaunch.

Quote from: the-Pi-guy on Mar 14, 2026, 05:35 PMFor some reason, running local models feels goofier than it should be. And I'm not sure why. Like for some reason, prompt adherence is worse when I'm using different Android app.

Not sure if they're formatting the requests differently, or passing different default values for the model.

AI can be so junky. 

Local model is suddenly not working well. Lots of looping.

I remember this happened before, and I had to downgrade the nvidia drivers. 

But it was not working this time. 

Tried searching with Copilot and it got to a point where it just kept telling me that the model can't run on my computer. Find a smaller model.
