Felix Rieseberg, formerly of Anthropic and ElectronJS, has launched a free Mac application called Language Model Builder. This tool allows users to construct their own large language models from scratch. While it can train models comparable to GPT-2 small within a week on a high-end MacBook Pro, the developer notes it is not capable of training state-of-the-art models like Claude Fable 5 or ChatGPT 5.6 Sol.
