Show HN: An LLM chat app using Apple's FoundationModels (apps.apple.com)

4 points by alariccole 10mo ago ↗ HN

Despite Apple’s fairly clear warnings that their 3B 4K model is not for use as a chat app, I had to try anyway. There’s definitely plenty of work to do but it’s starting to become useful.

Happy to answer any questions about limitations, what it’s good at, and how to coax it. The safety guardrails and forced disneyfication make this especially challenging.

Thanks for your work, tried it, it works, it is mostly not useful for me, but I love where this is going and the experience is super streamlined

Interesting to get a vibe check on the Apple model via chat.

Any plans for RAG across Notes/Email/Calendar?
