I play with Bard, Bing, OpenAI, and I get annoyed when it tells me it can’t do something.

Believe it or not I don’t care about porn or lewd stuff, I just want to be absurd and sometimes that goes weird places and gets filtered.

So what should I try? I want ease of use and am willing to pay for it. Ideally it has an offline mode and does not store user data.

    LM Studio is pretty easy to setup and then download new models (for a self-hosted option), but sifting through all the models can take time. LM Studio helps bc it can tell you which should run ok on your machine. Uncensored models seem to do what they’re told better than others.

      Sounds like a good fit. I’ll give it a look tonight, thanks. Hopefully it supports remote access of some sort so I can use it from my phone.

    Any self hosted ai thing. I recommend llamacpp because it’s the easiest to set up. Gpt4all is a ui solution that runs on top of llamacpp that would also be an excellent choice. All you have to do is download any gguf compatible model from hugging face, figure out what command line options you need for multithreaded operation and to load your custom model. If you want one that’s actually loyal and is less likely to be pushing some agenda, make sure it says it’s uncensored. Even if you’re not doing porn or ai girlfriend stuff you still want it to be uncensored or else it will be as disloyal as chat gpt. Note that uncensored and nsfw are 2 doffwthings so if you actually want an ai girlfriend or a shitpost generator, it needs to be both uncensored and nsfw.

    Same story with image generation ai. Use easy diffusion for self hosting and download whatever models you want, nsfw or otherwise from civitai.

    Don’t bother with online ai services, they are trash.

      Goddamn I am so out of the loop. I guess a gguf and hugging face get plugged into my Flux capacitor with a dinglehopper?

      Not expecting you to explain, I can look it up, just whining.

        Evaluate your correct model by asking it to explain all of the above and the one that does the job is the one for you.

      as disloyal as chat gpt

      That’s odd to hear, I use it all the time for so many things and it’s not bad for regular use. I’m afraid to ask what y’all are doing with the LLMs to describe it that way.

    NovelAI is an amazing tool if you want to write stories. In comparison to GPT-style LLMs, it has far less general knowledge, but it has immense training on online books and fanfiction. If you start writing a story, it will start emulating your style and producing great details with perfect grammar.
