Feb 3rd

• AI Local install Research –
  • Installed several platforms to test LLM’s on local machine, since I run out of tokens even having several instances of ChatGPT, Gemini, and others running all day.
    • Msty – seemed to have issues returning responses
    • Ollama – worked great in command line, but that’s very cumbersome to use
    • LM Studio.Ai – seemed to provide the best GUI but still slower than command line
• Reddit Subreddit added – https://www.reddit.com/r/EveryVerseDotCA/
  • This will help with engagement, SEO, and marketing, hopefully encouraging easier discussion and feedback area for internet bible nerds like me that I’ll reach out to after the big updates soon.
• New YouTube Clip of Scripture Hymnal Concert: here (I’m top left of the choir :D) Friday Oct 11th 2024 – Franklin, Tn – Hutchmoot 2024
