gpt4all-chat

Cross platform Qt based GUI for GPT4All versions with GPT-J as the base model. NOTE: The model seen in the screenshot is actually a preview of a new training run for GPT4All based on GPT-J. The GPT4All project is busy at work getting ready to release this model including installers for all three major OS's. In the meantime, you can try this UI out with the original GPT-J model by following build instructions below.

Features

• Cross-platform (Linux, Windows, MacOSX)
• Fast CPU based inference using ggml for GPT-J based models
• The UI is made to look and feel like you've come to expect from a chatty gpt
• Check for updates so you can alway stay fresh with latest models
• Easy to install with precompiled binaries available for all three major desktop platforms
• Multi-modal - Ability to load more than one model and switch between them
• Supports both llama.cpp and gptj.cpp style models
• Model downloader in GUI featuring many popular open source models
• Settings dialog to change temp, top_p, top_k, threads, etc
• Copy your conversation to clipboard
• Check for updates to get the very latest GUI

Feature wishlist

• Multi-chat - a list of current and past chats and the ability to save/delete/export and switch between
• Text to speech - have the AI response with voice
• Speech to text - give the prompt with your voice
• Python bindings
• Typescript bindings
• Plugin support for langchain other developer tools
• Save your prompt/responses to disk
• Upload prompt/respones manually/automatically to nomic.ai to aid future training runs
• Syntax highlighting support for programming languages, etc.
• REST API with a built-in webserver in the chat gui itself with a headless operation mode as well
• Advanced settings for changing temperature, topk, etc. (DONE)

Getting the latest

If you've already checked out the source code and/or built the program make sure when you do a git fetch to get the latest changes and that you also do git submodule update --init --recursive to update the submodules.

Building and running

• Install Qt 6.x for your platform https://doc.qt.io/qt-6/get-and-install-qt.html
• Install cmake for your platform https://cmake.org/install/
• Download https://huggingface.co/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6b
• Clone this repo and build

git clone https://github.com/ggerganov/ggml.git
cd ggml
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --parallel
python3 ../ggml/examples/gpt-j/convert-h5-to-ggml.py /path/to/your/local/copy/of/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B 0
./bin/gpt-j-quantize /path/to/your/local/copy/of/EleutherAI/gpt-j-6B/ggml-model-f32.bin ./ggml-model-q4_0.bin 2

and then

git clone --recurse-submodules https://github.com/nomic-ai/gpt4all-chat
cd gpt4all-chat
mkdir build
cd build
cmake ..
cmake --build . --parallel
mv /path/to/ggml-model-q4_0.bin bin
./bin/chat

To get Qt installed for your system

• Highly advise using the official Qt online open source installer.
• You can obtain this by creating an account on qt.io and downloading the installer.
• You should get latest Qt {Qt 6.5.x} for your system and the developer tools including QtCreator, cmake, ninja.
• WINDOWS NOTE: you need to use the mingw64 toolchain and not msvc
• ALL PLATFORMS NOTE: the installer has options for lots of different targets which will add a lot of download overhead. You can deselect webassembly target, android, sources, etc to save space on your disk.

Terminal Only Interface with no Qt dependency

Check out https://github.com/kuvaus/LlamaGPTJ-chat which is using the llmodel backend so it is compliant with our ecosystem and all models downloaded above should work with it.
