LocalAI v2.10.0 — Release Notes & Engineering Impact

### LocalAI v2.10.0 Release Notes Excited to announce the release of LocalAI v2.10.0! This version introduces significant changes, including breaking changes, numerous bug fixes, exciting new features, dependency updates, and more. Here's a summary of what's new: #### Breaking Changes 🛠 - The `trust_remote_code` setting in the YAML config file of the model are now consumed for enhanced security measures also for the AutoGPTQ and transformers backend, thanks to @dave-gray101's contribution ([#1799](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1799)). If your model relied on the old behavior and you are sure of what you are doing, set `trust_remote_code: true` in the YAML config file. #### Bug Fixes :bug: - Various fixes have been implemented to enhance the stability and performance of LocalAI: - SSE no longer omits empty `finish_reason` fields for better compatibility with the OpenAI API, fixed by @mudler ([#1745](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1745)). - Functions now correctly handle scenarios with no results, also addressed by @mudler ([#1758](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1758)). - A Command Injection Vulnerability has been fixed by @ouxs-19 ([#1778](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1778)). - OpenCL-based builds for llama.cpp have been restored, thanks to @cryptk's efforts ([#1828](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1828), [#1830](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1830)). - An issue with OSX build `default.metallib` has been resolved, which should now allow running the llama-cpp backend on Apple arm64, fixed by @dave-gray101 ([#1837](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1837)). #### Exciting New Features 🎉 - LocalAI continues to evolve with several new features: - Ongoing implementation of the assistants API, making great progress thanks to community contributions, including an initial implementation by @christ66 ([#1761](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1761)). - Addition of diffusers/transformers support for Intel GPU - now you can generate images and use the `transformer` backend also on Intel GPUs, implemented by @mudler ([#1746](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1746)). - Introduction of Bitsandbytes quantization for transformer backend enhancement and a fix for transformer backend error on CUDA by @fakezeta ([#1823](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1823)). - Compatibility layers for Elevenlabs and OpenAI TTS, enhancing text-to-speech capabilities: Now LocalAI is compatible with Elevenlabs and OpenAI TTS, thanks to @mudler ([#1834](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1834)). - vLLM now supports `stream: true`! This feature was introduced by @golgeek ([#1749](https://github.com/mudler/LocalAI/pull/1749)). #### Dependency Updates 👒 - Our continuous effort to keep dependencies up-to-date includes multiple updates to `ggerganov/llama.cpp`, `donomii/go-rwkv.cpp`, `mudler/go-stable-diffusion`, and others, ensuring that LocalAI is built on the latest and most secure libraries. #### Other Changes - Several internal changes have been made to improve the development process and documentation, including updates to integration guides, stress reduction on self-hosted runners, and more. ## Details of What's
