Would you like to see some plugins which integrate with local/self-hosted AI instead of sending it to ChatGPT? Or don’t you care about privacy there as long as the results are good?

You might be interested in GPT4All (https://gpt4all.io/index.html), which can be easily downloaded as Desktops GUI. Simply download a model (like nous Hermes) for 7.5GB and run in even without a GPU right on your CPU l (albeit slightly slowish).

It’s amazing what’s already possible with local AI instead of relying on large scale expensive and corporate-dependent AIs such as ChatGPT

    How is this possible? I thought that local LLM models nearly all required ludicrous amounts if VRAM, but I don’t see anything about system requirements on their website. Is this run in the cloud?

      It actually runs locally! I did that just two days ago. it’s amazing!

      it’s all based on research by many people who wanted to make the LLMs more accessible because gating them behind large computational work isn’t really fair/nice.

      There are some smaller parameter models (7B) that you can kind of get by running on a Mac book Air. It’s been a wild west of innovation as they figure out how to encode the weights in progressively smaller numbers of bits.

      One model I’ve seen averages about 2.56 bits/weight.

      I’m not sure how it will fit into my particular use of Obsidian. One thing I keep in mind is I want to be very sure to segregate the AI-generated text from my own.
