Also check out LLM Studio and GPT4all. Both of these let you run private ChatGPT alternatives from Hugging Face and run them off your ram and processor (can also offload to GPU).

I can't find a way to run any of these on my homeserver and access it over http. It looks like it is possible but you need a gui to install it in the first place.

(edit: here was wrong information - I apologize to the OP!)

Plus a GUI install is not exactly the best for reproducability which at least I aim for with my server infrastructure.

You don't need to run an X server on the headless server. As long as the libraries are compiled in to the client software (the GUI app), it will work. No GUI would need to be installed on the headless server, and the libraries are present in any common Linux distro already (and support would be compiled into a GUI-only app unless it was Wayland-only).

I agree that a GUI-only installer is a bad thing, but the parent was saying they didn't know how it could be done. "ssh -X" (or -Y) is how.

That's a huge today-I-learned for me, thank you! I took ill throw xeyes on it just to use ssh - C for the first time in my life. I actually assumed wrong.

I'll edit my post accordingly!
