Love pi. I tried to run some local models and pi was the only one that actually worked decently because it didn’t have a gargantuan system prompt that would take minutes to prefill on my scrawny ass laptop.
Been running it almost barebones vanilla for a couple of months. Just a bunch of basic extensions and some skills.
Now, if only they could fix the very annoying bug of the history jumping back at the beginning if I am not a the end while the model is reasoning that would great.
You inspired me to try Pi out - so far it's worked flawlessly. Plugged it into OpenRouter and ~$.50 of Deepseek later I've installed llama.cpp and Llama 3.1. The local model doesn't work with Pi yet (and I know it will be bad and slow even if it does) but I'm curious to see what you can do on an 8GB consumer GPU these days...
One of the dumbest sayings ever. Unless you spend all of your time doing something that makes money, the time is worth $0. You could say that you prefer to do something else during that time and would happily pay to free it up.

You could install this yourself for free? I get $0.50 isn’t all that much, but still?

Even if you spend just 10 minutes of it, I would say $0.50 it's not a bad deal.
