@dump_stack If you that want to become parasocial, there are plenty of ready to go solutions, like TavernAI, SillyTavern, KoboldAI, which provide interfaces for various model loaders, both cpu and gpu based. As of models, TheBloke [1] has decent collection of models of various quality, size and even domain specific ones; while chub.ai [2] is a decent source for RP character prompts. They even have character generators and your usual AI assistants of various
flavors. So yes, bottom line, the tools for your parasocial desires are already here, and results are of various decency.
