+1 to what Ethan B. said i.e.:
> I am anti-LLM on the grounds that the training sets were created without the original authors' \
consent. I see no issue with a libre/ethical LLM, if there is one, though. If a developer or team of \
developers wants to implement a Qt and KDE-integrated LLM app, I have no problem with that, but I believe \
KDE as an organization should probably steer clear of such a thorny subject. It's sure to upset a lot of \
users no matter what position is taken. On the other hand, for those people who do make use of AI tools, \
a native interface would be nice, especially one as feature-ful as you're describing...

As Andre said, there is not much reason to discuss this if it can be implemented "generalized and backend \
agnostic". Aside from that, I want us to be aware though that if we are steering users towards using LLMs \
created by known bad actors (which all big LLM companies currently seem to be), we give those bad actors \
power to manipulate and lie to users, which undoubtedly will happen more and more if LLMs manage to \
establish themselves as a middleman between users and the more valuable training data. However, if the \
frontend you want to start allows users to choose a LLM to work with, and we can even recommend users one \
LLM over the other there, then this shouldn't be a problem.

I personally wouldn't want to spend my time on what you are planning to do. I don't think there is much \
to gain there. At the end of the day, everyone can decide this for themselves though.
Cheers,
Felix
