@viticci This is actually pretty amazing.

brew install Arthur-Ficial/tap/apfel
brew install --cask macai
apfel --serve
Run the macai app and configure as shown in the screenshot (URL is http://127.0.0.1:11434/v1/chat/completions)

Boom, you have a fully local, offline, private, and environmental-friendly chatbot app for basic tasks at zero cost.

@viticci @atpfm If you want to talk about this on the show, please remember that it’s pronounced ”Up-fel,“ so your German listeners (including me) won’t get mad 😄

@timfidd @viticci Quoting their FAQ: ”apfel originally started as an attempt to run OpenClaw on Apple Intelligence in ultra token-saving mode. That did not work out because of the 4K context window.“ 😉
