</p>
🚀 Embark on an exciting adventure with Loyal Elephie, your faithful AI sidekick! This project combines the power of a neat Next.js web UI and a mighty Python backend, leveraging the latest advancements in Large Language Models (LLMs) and Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to deliver a seamless and meaningful chatting experience! 🎉
## Features
1. **🎛️ Controllable Memory:** Take control of Loyal Elephie's memory! You decide which moments to save, and you can easily edit the context as needed. It is your second-brain for episodic memory. ✍️
2. **🔍 Hybrid Search:** Experience the powerful combination of ChromaDB and BM25 for efficient searches! It's also optimized for handling date-relevant queries. 📅
3. **🔒 Secure Web Access:** With a built-in login feature, only authorized users can access your AI companion, ensuring your conversations remain private and secure over the internet. 🛡️
4. **🤖 Streamlined LLM Agent:** Loyal Elephie uses XML syntax with no function-calling required. It is also optimized for less token usage and works smoothly with great local LLMs using Llama.cpp or ExllamaV2. 💬
5. **📝 (Optional) Markdown Editor Integration:** Connect with online Markdown editors to view the original referred document during chats and experience real-time LLM knowledge integration after editing your notes online. 🌐
Loyal Elephie supports both open and proprietary LLMs and embeddings serving as OpenAI compatible APIs.
Warning: This project was originally designed for **Linux** and compatibility with Windows or macOS has not been fully tested. If you are using Windows, I strongly recommend you to run this project in **WSL**.
