What is LlamaChat

LlamaChat enables users to interact with various large language models such as LLaMA, Alpaca, and GPT4All directly on their Mac. These models run locally, ensuring privacy and offline accessibility. The application supports models like Alpaca, a 7B-parameter LLaMA model fine-tuned by Stanford for instruction-following tasks, and GPT4All, among others. LlamaChat is designed to be user-friendly, allowing easy import of model checkpoints and pre-converted files.
