Hello guys, good news indeed.
?
My dreams come true, i don't need to search answers in documentation anymore,
because there is AI Helper from IBM itself, which will explain to me in detail anything and everything mainframe related.
He can even help with JCL, HLASM or COBOL programming.

And the best part of it - you can run it locally, on your machine, completely for free!
Very easy setup for Windows 10 users, also available for Linux and Mac.
1. You need VideoCard with at least 6GB of video memory. Well, i use NVIDIA GeForce RTX 2080 SUPER 8GB.
2. You need middle class 64bit PC with at least 16GB of RAM and multicore CPU. The more the better.
3. Go to and download installer for your system.
4. Run it, open 'Discover' panel and search for "Granite 3.1 8B", it is LLM from IBM supporting up to 128K context length, trained on 500B tokens.
5. Download it and after that you can launch it from inside your video memory! It is trained on IBM stuff, and answers pretty quickly.

No more waiting for someone on the forum to answer your stupid question. Now you can get the answer almost instantly from AI.
What i know, is that you can access this same model online at IBM cloud through watsonx, but it will cost you money.

Best wishes,
