So, i have gpt4all on my laptop and i mostly use it for random fictional writing fun stuff.

Aside from that, it would be cool to have some kind of automatic inventory and info system for items in my home that can make minor assumptions about what you want, or do a "twenty questions" game to help find a word you forgot. My gf is dyslexic and can't remember words that she's only seen in writing, so she sometimes gets really irritated when she's trying to explain stuff and she can't even think of what letter the word starts with. I notice that when she wants to think of a specific word like "conglomeration" she has a very hard time thinking of how to describe the concept. So something that would be like "are you thinking of a noun? Is it a person, group, etc?" without her having to write a stating sentence would be helpful. It would have to just have a "start questions" button, bc she will get stressed by trying to think of how to start the writing lol

May I ask you how fast is gpt4all running on your laptop? I've tried to run locally on my desktop and it worked really well, however the "response" time it's pretty slow.
Yeah, it's still pretty slow and can't take large inputs very well. I'd say it takes 30sec to a minute to process a 200-300 word selection.
