I’m using Mistral OpenOrca and GPT4ALL who claim privacy. I opted out from sharing my conversations for privacy reasons but don’t think this is actually true. See my conversation in the picture attached. Any feedback is appreciated and would like to hear from other people.
The words you see were generated by a neural network based on the words it was trained on. That text is not related to the intentions or capabilities of the model.
Since it is running in gpt4all, we can see from the source code that the model cannot call functions. Therefore, the model cannot “do” anything; it just generates text.
If, for example, the model said it was buying a book from a website, that doesn’t mean anything. We know it can’t do that because the code running the model doesn’t provide that kind of feature. The model lives inside a sandbox, cut off from the outside world.
