Launch HN: Danswer (YC W24) – Open-source AI search and chat over private data
We have a connector interface and build guide for contributors: https://github.com/danswer-ai/danswer/blob/main/backend/dans...
Should be not too bad to build one out! Fun fact, more than half the connectors were built entirely by community members who needed them for their own teams and we're super grateful when they contribute it back to the repo.

Show HN: DanswerBot – Open-source Slack bot to automate repetitive questions
Slack questions have always been a huge time sink for me. They’re a distraction that pulls me away from what I’m doing, and often requires digging up old knowledge. If I’m in the middle of something complex, I may take a while to context switch and get around to answering, which leaves the asker blocked for hours.
Addressing this seems simple: give an LLM your organizational context and plop it in Slack to answer things for you.
So that’s why we built DanswerBot! It’s MIT licensed (https://github.com/danswer-ai/danswer) and completely free to use. The bot can automatically sync with and back answers based on documents from Slack, Google Drive, GitHub, Confluence, Jira, Notion, local files, websites, and much more.
Quick demo vid: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5q35NeqsMnU
A quick note on hallucinations: in order to reduce their prevalence, all answers are backed by quotes. If the LLM-provided quotes don’t match any document or no quotes are given, we’ll warn the asker that something may have gone wrong. Additionally, all used documents are linked in case the asker wants to double check the answer. Answers can be thumbs-upped or thumbs-downed and all questions / answers are recorded in Postgres for easy future inspection / analysis.
For usability, we provide an admin dashboard where you can configure connectors (we have 14 currently). Once a connector is set up, we poll data sources every 10 minutes to keep answers up to date. Which LLM to use is also up to you - DanswerBot can be configured to use a locally hosted model, Azure OpenAI, or OpenAI directly.
Finally, if you aren’t a slack user (or if you just prefer a more tailored UI), there’s also a web interface to ask questions against your knowledge base. A short demo for that can be found at: https://youtu.be/cWWtnuVCUX0
Of course there’s a bunch more that I can’t cover in one post - happy to take questions in the comments (or in our Slack / Discord, which are linked on the Github repo).
If you’re interested in testing this out yourself, you can easily run everything locally with a single command. Docs to help you can be found at https://docs.danswer.dev/quickstart!

Take control! Run ChatGPT and Github Copilot yourself!
What I described here is most optimal workflow I found to be working for me. There are multiple ways to run open source models locally worth mentioning like Oobabooga WebUI or LM Studio, however I didn't found them to be so seamless, and fit my workflow.

Ask HN: What is the current (Apr. 2024) gold standard of running an LLM locally?
Some of the tools offer a path to doing tool use (fetching URLs and doing things with them) or RAG (searching your documents). I think Oobabooga https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui offers the latter through plugins.
Our tool, https://github.com/transformerlab/transformerlab-app also supports the latter (document search) using local llms.

Ask HN: How to get started with local language models?
You can use webui https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
Once you get a version up and running I make a copy before I update it as several times updates have broken my working version and caused headaches.

Ask HN: People who switched from GPT to their own models. How was it?
The other answers are recommending paths which give you #1. less control and #2. projects with smaller eco-systems.
If you want a truly general purpose front-end for LLMs, the only good solution right now is oobabooga: https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui
All other alternatives have only small fractions of the features that oobabooga supports. All other alternatives only support a fraction of the LLM backends that oobabooga supports, etc.

Nvidia's Chat with RTX is a promising AI chatbot that runs locally on your PC
> Downloading text-generation-webui takes a minute, let's you use any model and get going.
What you're missing here is you're already in this area deep enough to know what ooogoababagababa text-generation-webui is. Let's back out to the "average Windows desktop user" level. Assuming they even know how to find it:
1) Go to https://github.com/oobabooga/text-generation-webui?tab=readm...
2) See a bunch of instructions opening a terminal window and running random batch/powershell scripts. Powershell, etc will likely prompt you with a scary warning. Then you start wondering who ooobabagagagaba is...
3) Assuming you get this far (many users won't even get to step 1) you're greeted with a web interface[0] FILLED to the brim with technical jargon and extremely overwhelming options just to get a model loaded, which is another mind warp because you get to try to select between a bunch of random models with no clear meaning and non-sensical/joke sounding names from someone called "TheBloke". Ok...
Let's say you somehow braved this gauntlet and get this far now you get to chat with it. Ok, what about my local documents? text-generation-webui itself has nothing for that. Repeat this process over the 10 random open source projects from a bunch of names you've never heard of in an attempt to accomplish that.
This is "I saw this thing from Nvidia explode all over media, twitter, youtube, etc. I downloaded it from Nvidia, double-clicked, pointed it at a folder with documents, and it works".
That's the difference and it's very significant.

Ask HN: What are your top 3 coolest software engineering tools?
Maybe a copout answer, but setting up a local LLM on my development machine has been invaluable. I use Deep Seek Coder 6.7 [0] and Oobabooga's UI [1]. It helps me solve simple problems and find bugs, while still leaving the larger architecture decisions to me.
