You never heard of ollama or docker model runner?

I've been using duck.ai recently myself and quite like it. My only complaint with it is that the chats have a length limit, so if you're working on complex projects you can run into those limits pretty quick. I use it for worldbuilding for a novel I'm working on and I have to use chatgpt for thematic stuff because it has a better memory, but otherwise it's great for quick/small things.

Excellent, I will be sure not to use this, like all Google shit.

In a few years you won't be able to anyway

All the time I spent trying to get rid of gemini just to now download this. Am I stupid?

Android and iOS.

I wouldn't think so - it depends on your priorities.

The open source and offline nature of this without the pretenses of "Hey, we're gonna use every query you give as a data point to shove more products down your face" seems very appealing over Gemini. There's also that Gemini is constantly being shoved in our faces and preinstalled, whereas this is a completely optional download.

I'm just reaching the end game faster then.

There is already GPT4All.

Convenient graphical interface, any model you like (for Llama fans - of course it's there), fully local, easy to opt in or out of data collection, and no fuss to install - it's just a Linux/Windows/MacOS app.

For Linux folks, it is also available as flatpak for your convenience.

god i can't wait for the ai bubble to pop

Wonder what this has over its competitors, I hesitate to think they released this for fun though

Thanks for the info!

Tell that to my Red Dead Redemption 2 install.

Google hosting their shit on Microsofts servers and telling you to sideload and not using their own software distribution method for their own OS is kind of crazy if you think about it

So it doesnt require internet access at all? I would only use these on a disconnected part of my network.

Yes, it works perfectly well without Internet. Tried it both on physically disconnected PC and laptop in airplane mode.

Okay man.
