Interest in building an LLM frontend for KDE

Hey Loren,

I agree with everyone else that as long as the model is ethically sourced and 
local-by-default (which is my two main problems with modern LLMs.) I see no 
qualms about including such a frontend in KDE.

I think the hardest part will be the marketing around this new software. One 
of our current goals is "Sustainable Software" and current LLM models as far 
as I understand is extremely power hungry and inefficient. If you do go ahead 
with this project, I would be very careful with how we promote it. It would 
have to somehow push KDE values while also avoiding the ethical, climate and 
social minefield that's currently littering this topic. Just something to keep 
in mind 🙂

Thanks,
Josh
