Developers wanting a self-hosted AI code assistant for local, secure code generation
About FauxPilot
FauxPilot is an open source, self-hosted alternative to GitHub Copilot. It utilizes the SalesForce CodeGen models on NVIDIA's Triton Inference Server with the FasterTransformer backend for local code generation. It requires Docker, an NVIDIA GPU with sufficient VRAM, and the ability to split the model across multiple GPUs if needed. The setup involves downloading models from Hugging Face and converting them for FasterTransformer compatibility.
