Unofficial ChatGPT community to discuss anything ChatGPT

Forgive me if this question is a bit silly, or conceptually incorrect (I’m not fully across how the APIs work and effect ChatGPT implementations etc).

I’m looking for a ChatGPT (or similar) desktop app. HemulGM’s ChatGPT app is tempting, especially because it seems to include/support DALL-E and GPT-3 and -4, but I haven’t found much discussion online from users. My biggest concern is security…I chickened out before running the .exe due to Windows’ “unknown dev” warning, and because the dev’s website is a .ru address (hate to say it, but that’s a yellow flag for me in today’s cyber climate).

Does anyone have any thoughts or experience with this particular desktop app? Or better alternatives? Ideally free and open-source, but I know that may be asking a lot and I’m open to suggestions.

Appreciate it!

GPT4All might be your answer. Desktop, open source, supports using GPT4 through the API.

Thank you! Have just installed GPT4All, waiting for Llama-2 to download. Keen to see how it goes!
