Profile

Hey HN, I made a tiny website for my llama.cpp-powered mac app. You can load in any GGUF (or it'll download the nice synthia mistral 7B fine-tune by default).I'm excited about local AI because of the privacy characteristics (you can run FreeChat without even connecting to the internet). I think that to amplify our abilities to the fullest extent we'll want information to flow fluidly back and forth between our brain and the AI. I'm pretty wary of what I'd plug my uncensored brain into, but keeping everything on-device feels most trustworthy to me. I was blown away by the llama.cpp demos and want to 1) make something useful for myself and 2) push more people towards open models and local AI.T

Within the show hn launch space, the company focuses on its core offering rather than a broad product line.

The company is listed at the Show HN launch stage of development.
