I am currently playing around with a few hugging face models on my local laptop (audio processing), and it is super sloooooooow.<p>Is there a cool kid on the block where to run my python code in the cloud for a few bucks and have it fast?<p>Don't really care about production ready for now, more a playground.<p>Obvious choices would be GCP, AWS, but wanted to know if there is something more tailor made.
Maybe something like Runpod or Vast.ai (<a href="https://llm-utils.org/List+of+non-serverless+GPU+providers" rel="nofollow">https://llm-utils.org/List+of+non-serverless+GPU+providers</a>), or one of the serverless things (though beware the cold start times...)
I don't know if it's "the best" option, but a really popular option is Google Colaboratory[1].<p>[1]: <a href="https://colab.research.google.com/" rel="nofollow">https://colab.research.google.com/</a>
You could try <a href="https://beam.cloud">https://beam.cloud</a> (disclaimer, I’m the co-founder)<p>You can run popular models on remote GPUs from your laptop with two commands. For example:<p>$ beam create-app stable-diffusion-gpu<p>$ beam start app.py
Get a desktop computer and put a NVIDIA GPU in it. It is pricey but so are cloud instances with a GPU. Alternately, for some things the M-chips from Apple are pretty good.
