I am seeking recommendations for alternative free and privacy-focused AI chatbots that can be accessed via a web browser or utilized as offline software with a user-friendly installation process, not requiring extensive coding knowledge.
Specifically, I am interested in exploring options similar to DuckDuckGo or Venice, which prioritize user data protection and anonymity. Additionally, I would appreciate suggestions for offline AI chatbots that can be easily installed on various operating systems without requiring technical expertise.
It is notable that while there are numerous resources available for evaluating proxies and privacy-focused software, there appears to be a lack of comprehensive lists or reviews specifically focused on free AI chatbots that prioritize user privacy. If such resources exist, I would appreciate any guidance or recommendations.
Look up LM Studio. It’s a free software that let’s you easily install and use local LLMs. Note that you need to have a good graphics card and a lot of RAM for it to be useful.
