Private AI

Earlier this month, my dad sent me a resource for self-hosting a ChatGPT-like AI.

And this led to a conversation that sparked an idea:

Set up a private chat AI, reachable via Signal messaging.

A few Bash & Python scripts later, our system was up and running.

And we’ve been having a lot of fun with it.

I think others will also enjoy this, so I’m sharing a public repository for the Private AI Project.

Reasons to self-host a chat AI:

• Keep your chat history 100% private.

• Message your AI with end-to-end encryption.

• Stop paying for monthly subscriptions.

Contributors welcome!

See the project here.
