Lm Link
LM Link is a remote access feature integrated into LM Studio that enables portable and lightweight devices to connect to language models hosted on more powerful machines. This functionality allows users with limited local processing capabilities to offload model inference to a remote system, thereby bypassing the hardware constraints typically required for running large language models locally.
The feature operates by establishing a network connection between a client device and a server instance of LM Studio. The client device sends inference requests to the remote machine, which processes the data and returns the generated responses. This architecture facilitates the use of high-capacity models on devices that would otherwise lack the necessary GPU memory or computational power to run them efficiently.
