That one website that runs an AI chatbot entirely on your own computer

Why it's the pick

WebLLM Chat downloads an open model such as Llama, Phi, Gemma or Qwen into your browser and runs it on your own graphics chip, so your chats never leave your computer and it keeps working offline. It needs a WebGPU browser such as recent Chrome or Edge and a decent GPU, the first model download can be a gigabyte or more, and these small models are much less capable than ChatGPT.
