11 Building Locally-Running LLM-based Applications using GPT4All

You've learned about constructing LLM-based applications using models from OpenAI and HuggingFace. While these models have transformed natural language processing, there are notable drawbacks. Primarily, privacy emerges as a critical concern for businesses. Relying on third-party hosted models introduces a security risk, as your conversations would be transmitted to these external companies, raising apprehensions for businesses dealing with sensitive data. Additionally, the challenge of integrating these models with your private data exists, and even if accomplished, the initial privacy issue resurfaces.
