Hey there, Iโ€™m maddes8cht, and Iโ€™m on a journey of exploration. My path has led me through the fascinating realms and possibilities of Blender, Python, C++, machine learning, and Visual Studio Code.

But itโ€™s not just about the code for me. ๐ŸŒฑ Itโ€™s about a vision of Open Source as a driving force in the world of AI. Iโ€™m on a mission to bridge the gap between open-source principles and AI models. I believe in the power of freely accessible knowledge and resources.

๐Ÿš€ Contribution to Open Source: I specialize in converting true Open Source AI models. Thus my focus lies on models like Falcon and MPT that are in the spirit of open source.

๐Ÿค— ** Contribution to HuggingFace:** Through my participation in the Hugging Face community, I want to advocate for AI models that use true OSI-compliant licenses. Just as the community has enriched my journey, I want to give back and foster an environment of learning, sharing, and collaboration.

๐Ÿ’ก Stack Overflow Top Contributor: Being in the top 3% of contributors in the current year, I have enjoyed interacting with other enthusiasts, and I look forward to more insightful discussions.

๐ŸŒ GitHub: Never created a general useful project myself, but actively contributing in some: GitHub/maddes8cht about

๐Ÿ”— Connect with me: Letโ€™s collaborate and start this exciting journey together. Whether on Hugging Face, Stack Overflow, or GitHub, we can shape the future of open source AI, one line of code at a time.
