Do you want to use AI on Mac or Windows? With this desktop app you can do it safely and privately

The next step that artificial intelligence has taken is to be integrated locally into mobile phones. As you have already seen, brands such as Samsung or now Apple are already integrating AI into their Galaxy and future iPhone 16s, with the idea of ​​making this technology more accessible but above all safer.

It seems this is now the way forward and Nomic AI, another company, has launched GPT4All version 3.0, which allows Mac, Linux and Windows users to chat with thousands of language models locally on their computers.

In a nutshell, it is an open source project designed to run large language models directly on devices. Since its launch, it has gained huge popularity, reaching over 250,000 monthly active users and earning 65,000 stars on GitHub.

This is what is known as Edge AI, as devices process their own data locally, as if each one had its own mini-brain. This means that decisions can be made much faster, without having to wait for the cloud and, above all, in a more secure and private way.

GPT4All now has a new version to make AI fans wonder

The great thing about this new feature is that the platform is constantly being improved by an active community of over 100 contributors and has seen over 30 version updates since its launch.

In this case, GPT4All version 3.0, released in July 2024, introduces several improvements such as:

1. Expanded model support: Users can now interact with thousands of AI models, including such famous ones as LLaMa, Mistral, and Nous-Hermes.
2. Improved Compatibility: GPT4All 3.0 is fully compatible with Mac M-series chips, as well as AMD and NVIDIA GPUs.
3. LocalDocs Integration: One of the most important features of this update is LocalDocs, which allows users to give their local LLM access to private and confidential information without needing to be connected to the Internet.
4. Customizable chatbot experience: Users can now fully customize their interactions with the chatbot by adjusting settings of all kinds.

“We are committed to creating the best desktop LLM experience for the everyday person,” Nomic AI said in a tweet announcing the 3.0 update. “At Nomic, we believe that anyone should be able to benefit from powerful generative AI,” they added.
