obsidian-textgenerator-plugin VS LibreTranslate

I think you can achieve something similar to notion ai with text generator plugin maybe not so polished, but should be good enough

Add the link https://github.com/nhaouari/obsidian-textgenerator-plugin

I would argue that plugins solve this issue and save the dev team from becoming bogged down with ai requests. I'm sure if you were to share this in the plugin discord channel you may find the solution already exists. Much of what you describe could be done with a bit of research into the other available ai plugins for obsidian including AVA, Gpt-3 Notes, and the extremely powerful Text Generator plugin... off the top of my head I believe you could assign a hot key to a particular text generator custom template that says something like "generate tags based on the note content" and insert it into the YAML, take that even further by integrating it into your note template with Templater/Quickadd by calling the command upon creation.

I just remembered there is currently an OPENAI plugin called Text Generator that I've used and works pretty well, as a current example of a GPT-3 implementation. Here's the repo if it's any use to you: https://github.com/nhaouari/obsidian-textgenerator-plugin

I would try to combine a few plugins in Obsidian, Text Generator and any of the OCR plugins.

Well this already exists for GPT-3 so it's only a matter of them opening up the API I figure.

Hi there, Thanks for your interest in the Text Generator plugin! It's certainly an incredible tool. The full documentation for the plugin can be found at https://www.text-gen.com/. Unfortunately, the fine-tuning of parameters to train the generator on your own vault is not yet available, but it is on the roadmap for future development of this plugin. In the meantime, you can still use the Text Generator to explore and generate new ideas from text related to whatever topics you are interested in! Hope this helps and good luck with your project!

Interestingly, I think this is actually related to the offline translation features built into Firefox. Both are products of "Project Bergamot", but the Mozilla-maintained version was later merged into the Firefox application:

Extra webpage with screenshot and links, impossible to search for normally:

Does one thing and does it well.

Oh— For downloading models, it's much easier to pipe/`xargs` `translateLocally --available-models` into `translateLocally -d` than go through the GUI.

Other self-hostable translation tools:

- Traditional rule-based translation. Seems to work pretty well, but no good desktop frontend.

- Works, but crashy desktop app.

- API wrapping Argos Translate.

- Google Translate scraper/privacy frontend.

- Proprietary, subscription trialware.

Esperanto is eurocentric (sounds foreign for many people, in particular Asians),is poor in history and is spoken by a very small minority. SolarPunk should focus on local languages and multilingualism, to celebrate the local culture and inclusion, instead. AI translation should be part of SolarPunk as well. So, SolarPunks should consider learn a language that could help improve their local community e.g. immigrants or dying languages. They also should consider working or using open source AI translator (e.g. https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LibreTranslate).

Maybe check out libretranslate? https://libretranslate.com/

2g. Both the source text and the indirect text are then put into a translator. https://libretranslate.com/

LibreTranslate

Looking for a self-hosted alternative for DeepL & Co. Found a handful of older posts pointing at LibreTranslate.

Consider a free software alternative to this translation service, such as Argos Translate or its web based frontend LibreTranslate.
