Since AI is on the map, any chance or want other than myself for local llm support in Xojo? Then I can have some privacy and test out different models in the IDE. ---

There’s an editor called “Void” that is configurable to use several AI providers, including your own. I hope Xojo follows this path. ![image](https://forum.xojo.com/uploads/default/original/3X/3/d/3d74417f343c4308a99122e7d0bd5936424f443c.png) ---

You can use it in your projects already [AIKit](https://forum.xojo.com/t/aikit-my-open-source-xojo-module-for-interfacing-with-llms/84791) ---

I’m thinking Paul wanted the Xojo AI assistant to be local so it wouldn’t contribute anything on his machine to an external server. ---

As Daniel suggested, AIKit will communicate with local models running via Ollama on the local machine or a LAN. ---

No Ian is right, I’m talking about the built in assistant and not a toolkit or library. ---

I am going to explore with ollama too.. I have been using this with my python program. Garry, I assume I can start off with AIKit.. Can I use your kit with API 1 ?? ---

Feel fee to use AIKit. I develop in the latest Xojo version and it’s API 2.0. It may not work in significantly older versions of Xojo. Give it a whirl.
