OpenAI Unveils Codex CLI, an Open-Source Agentic Coding Assistant That Can Operate Locally

OpenAI Unveils Codex CLI, an Open-Source Agentic Coding Assistant That Can Operate Locally

Published by Webster

OpenAI introduced an open‑source artificial intelligence (AI) command‑line tool on Thursday that can operate within a user’s terminal. Dubbed Codex CLI, it is essentially an AI agent that can perform various coding tasks and can even autonomously execute commands, all within a sandboxed local system. The tool does not require any installation setup, and can use multiple OpenAI AI models. However, the open-source project is currently under active development, and the AI firm warns that it might not be entirely stable. OpenAI’s New Open-Source AI Agent Can Code Locally The San Francisco-based AI firm introduced Codex CLI in a post on its website. Calling it a “lightweight coding agent,” the company said it can read, modify, and run code in a user’s terminal. The AI agent runs locally and does not require any Internet connectivity to function. It officially supports macOS and Linux, however, Windows support is experimental and might require Windows Subsystem for Linux (WSL). OpenAI’s Codex CLI is an interesting project. Today, developers have two options if they want to use AI systems …

Adobe Develops SlimLM That Can Process Documents Locally on Devices Without Internet Connectivity

Adobe Develops SlimLM That Can Process Documents Locally on Devices Without Internet Connectivity

Published by Webster

Adobe researchers have published a paper that details a new artificial intelligence (AI) model capable of processing documents locally on a device. Published last week, the paper highlights that researchers experimented with existing large language models (LLMs) and small language models (SLMs) to find how to reduce the size of the AI model while keeping its processing capability and inference speed high. The researchers, as a result of the experimentations, were able to develop an AI model dubbed SlimLM that can function entirely within a smartphone and process documents. Adobe Researchers Develop SlimLM AI-powered document processing, which allows a chatbot to answer user queries about its content, is an important use case of generative AI. Many companies, including Adobe, have tapped into this application and have released tools that offer this functionality. However, there is one issue with all such tools — the AI processing takes place on the cloud. On-server processing of data raises concerns about data privacy and makes processing documents containing sensitive information a risk-ridden process. The risk mainly emerges from fears …

Battle 2024: Crucial for three major parties locally and nationally

Published by Parlour News

The electoral fight in 14 Lok Sabha constituencies, which are going to polls on Friday in Karnataka, is significant for all three major parties, and has attracted national attention this time for a variety of reasons. Why it matters For the Congress, which launched anti-BJP platform INDIA block in Bengaluru about nine months ago, the poll outcome is significant for providing political stability in the State and increasing the party’s tally at the national level. The BJP, which has set the target of winning 50 seats in south India, considers Karnataka the party’s “gateway to the South” and has consistently won more seats than the Congress in the past few elections. Winning maximum seats in the first phase is crucial not only for the State unit of the BJP to regain its hold but also for reaching the target of seats set by the party at the national level. The BJP and JD(S) are battling it out in the parliamentary elections against the Congress. In bipolar contest, the BJP hopes its alliance with former Prime …

Nvidia Releases Chat With RTX, an AI Chatbot That Runs Locally on Windows PC

Published by Webster

Nvidia has released an artificial intelligence (AI)-powered chatbot called Chat with RTX that runs locally on a PC and does not need to connect to the Internet. The GPU maker has been at the forefront of the AI industry since the generative AI boom, with its advanced AI chips powering AI products and services. Nvidia also has an AI platform that provides end-to-end solutions for enterprises. The company is now building its own chatbots, and Chat with RTX is its first offering. The Nvidia chatbot is currently a demo app available for free. Calling it a personalised AI chatbot, Nvidia released the tool on Tuesday (February 13). Users intending to download the software will need a Windows PC or workstation that runs on an RTX 30 or 40-series GPU with a minimum of 8GB VRAM. Once downloaded, the app can be installed with a few clicks and be used right away. Since it is a local chatbot, Chat with RTX does not have any knowledge of the outside world. However, users can feed it with …

Published by Webster

Made from locally grown cannabis seeds, they are crushed and tossed through with green chilies and coriander leaves. Some recipes add cumin, garlic, pomegranate seeds and souring agents like tamarind. Unlike the leaves that are consumed to get ‘high,’ the chutney, made from the seeds, has no psycho-addictive qualities, but offers instead, a hearty texture and sharp hit on the palette. Served with millet (Jhangori) roti, it is the perfect start to a traditional thali. Fareeda Kanga explores the unique cuisine of the region of Tehri in Uttarakhand. Read more here.
