Creating skynet (letting an LLM open FireFox)

Have I accidentally built skynet?

The recent buzz around DeepSeek renewed my desire and motivation, but I had been searching for ages for an AI interface that would run locally (i.e. local models) and would allow for voice to text and text to voice communications.

I finally found one on GitHub called “Amica”

While there are some aspects of it that, I don’t much care for,  it actually works and works very well!

I’ve now spent longer, this weekend, than I care to admit tinkering with the code and adding new features to it (and removing some).

The feature I finally wrote and got working this evening was giving the LLM (mistral-small:24b at the moment) the ability to decide on it’s own when to open a web browser and what URL to navigate to!
