Howdy Comrades! Just wanted to show off an app I just started using. This LLM app uses an array of open source AI models to respond to your questions. Then its super secure through the assist app found on F-Droid. In settings you can set it to access the web if you want.

My question is how safe it to use with the web search enabled and have you tried this app before?

Side note*** Its unlikely I’ll end up using this as my LLM. I prefer locally run. But locally run has harder setup and response times. I’m studying this app because I teach. There’s people who heavily use LLM’s and those people are unlikely to move to the FLOSS movement and make the radical changes needed if they lose their LLM and other key apps that they like. Once they get to where they like open source LLM’s over proprietary then you can start introducing then to locally run LLM’s.

Do you know a better one aside from locally run?
