@Blisterexe @Xuderis It's true, as a researcher, these models have helped me a lot to speed up the process of reading and identifying specific information in scientific articles. As long as it is privacy respecting, I see this implementation with good eyes.
It lets you use any model, so while it lets you use chatgpt, it also lets you use a self-hosted model if you edit about:config
But what does using that in my browser get me? If I’m running llama2, I can already copy and paste text into the terminal if I want. Is this just saving me that step?
Yeah
