I created a simple native graphical user interface (GUI) for accessing various AI services and local AIs. There are numerous existing AI apps, but I couldn't use those new "web interfaces". I'm too old for that. Downloads links below ⬇️ pic.twitter.com/xGpWYqJxO6

Ukraine war: What's the impact of cyber guerrillas? – DW – 12/23/2023

In response to Russia's invasion, Ukraine called for support from volunteers operating in cyberspace. Since then, hackers have helped Kyiv's war effort. But this new phenomenon also draws criticism.
