It's very nice that there exists something like that. I am an author of one of the similar apps [1] someone listed in a different thread. I was hoping I could get in touch with someone like you who could give me some feedback on how to

Give it a try and see how you feel. "Yes, it will" be a dishonest answer to be completely honest at least at this point. The app has been out for just about a month and I am still working in it. I would love a user like you to giv

Hi. I'm the author of Msty app, 2nd on the list above. You are right about average users likely choosing ChatGPT over local models. My wife was the first and the biggest user of my app. A software engineer by profession and training bu

Thanks! If you go to where you installed the model from and click on the download button, you can install additional models or remove installed models. Now that I think of it, it could be a bit confusing. Thanks for asking, I feel like I ne

Sure. I would love to add support for that. I had someone else asking for it too. Will be supporting it very soon.

Available in pre-release now which means you’d have to update manually in future.

If you are looking for a nice chat UI to try out Gemma (and other offline + online models) locally, I'm working on an app [1] that is offline and privacy focused. I've just added support for Gemma 7B. [1]: https://msty.

Thank you! I am still exploring supporting Msty on AMD GPUs and it's on the top of my list. i even bought an AMD laptop yesterday for testing. Please keep an eye on our changelog (or better, on our Discord) for when we announce AMD sup

Ugh! Probably because it’s an exe app? Not sure how to go around about that. I am looking into getting it signed just like the counterpart MacOS app. Thank you for the heads up and sorry about the false positive.

That’s true and unfortunate. The MacOS installer is signed and I will be looking into signing the Windows installer. Thank you for your suggestions. My last experience of getting and signing a Windows installer was awful and goes back to wh

Hmmm… it’s a false positive. Is it Windows Defender or something else? Is it when you open the app or when you setup local AI? Not sure where I would send a request for it to be not flagged.

As others have mentioned, Ollama uses Llama.CPP under the hood and they recently released Vulkan support which is supposed to work with AMD GPUs. I was able to use llama.cpu compiled with Vulkan support with my app [1] and make it run on an

I use it to compare outputs from different models (along with OpenAI, MistralAI) and pick-and-choose-and-compose those outputs. I wrote an app[1] that facilitates this. This also allows me to work offline mode and not having to worry about
