Why keep relying on API services? If you'd like your own local AI integration with open providers like Rocket.Chat and Mattermost, check out txtchat (https://github.com/neuml/txtchat).

Very interesting!

It would be great to see how it compares to Faiss / HNSWLib etc. I'd will consider integrating it into txtai as an ANN backend.


Have you considered using something like claude code / opencode?


It's been an issue for a while and it's even bigger now in the age of AI. Lots of people use security as a way to "have their moment" and don't really care about adding value.

But scaring people off from security reports also isn't a great idea either.


It's too bad that Anthropic is so hostile to open source. It's a big missed opportunity for them.


Nice application, great work!


AI Development is good for those who want to do it. But not a terminal career decision for those who don't.


Two words: Open Source.


This change was happening well before LLMs. People were tired of being yelled at and treated poorly.

A cautionary tale for many of these types of tech platforms, this one included.


The message here is good. I've now spent over 5 years in the OSS world (https://github.com/neuml). I started by picking a problem I was interested in and checking the work into GitHub. I've been extremely fortunate to have gained a following over the years.

Even with a following, most of the time when you publish it goes into the abyss. Every once in a while something hits but most of the time it takes a lot of patience and resolve. I've had some good visibility over the years from Reddit and Hacker News (though any post I make now on HN is marked as [dead]). It's not always fair and others can "pay" to get the visibility.

I've seen some of the other comments talking about the burden of OSS but I haven't felt that. I set my own agenda and fix what I want to fix. If someone wants to change my priorities that becomes a paid effort.
