Open source luxury version ChatGPT 'YakGPT' that works only with a browser, voice input is also possible at a higher speed than the official UI

Various excellent chat AIs have come out, and some

, such as 'GPT4ALL', which can be run on a notebook PC , do not require so much hardware specs. However, in that case, it is necessary to download several GB of data, and although it is easy to use, it is not so easy to introduce. As the open source ' YakGPT ' calls itself 'a simple and local ChatGPT UI', there is no need to install any special app, and you can use chat AI with a browser and an OpenAI API key.

I chose the 'Expert in Everything' prompt because I had the choice of choosing an example prompt or filling out the form myself.

Then YakGPT replied, 'I'm happy to help. Which topic should I become an expert on?' From here on out, I want YakGPT to become an expert and listen to various stories. You can choose between GPT-3.5-Turbo and GPT-3.5-Turbo-0301 models, and chat also supports voice input.

When I asked YakGPT about the difference between ChatGPT and YakGPT, they said that ChatGPT is specialized for use as a chatbot, while YakGPT excels at various natural language processing tasks. The contents should be the same, but...

By cloning the YakGPT repository, it can also be used in a local environment.
