There is an #AI program I'd really like to find but it would have to be something that I could self-host (on #Ubuntu #Linux ) and that does not rely on any cloud based service. What I'd like to be able to do is when I find a technical article that contains information I might need someday, I would like to be able to give the URL of that article to the AI. Then later on, if I ask a question that was answered by something I have saved, the AI would he able to either tell me the answer or provide the URL (preferably the former, since web sites sometimes go away). I have no idea how this would work from a technical standpoint, but think of it as kind of like adding a selected article to something like the Internet archive (Wayback Machine), then being able to ask questions and have it give answers only from the articles you have previously added (or at least prefer those articles).

The reason I said it should be something you can self host, if that's feasible, is that I'd also like to be able to add other documents (not necessarily just web-based articles) that might contain sensitive information, such as all my Joplin notes. There is information in those that I would not want stored on someone else's cloud server (no matter how secure they may think their server is). I mean, if there was a free to use service that essentially does what I want, I would probably use it just to save articles from the web so I can refer to them later (instead of having an ungodly number of open tabs in my web browser) but I would be reluctant to save anything that might contain sensitive information or personally identifying details. Also there may be information I don't want to reference so as not to get irrelevant or wrong answers (think of the issue of doing a Google search and getting nothing but irrelevant or outdated results).

Does anything such as this exist?
