Announcing Bot Libre Desktop - Your own personal bot for your PC or Mac

Bot Libre Desktop is the desktop version of the Bot Libre platform for your PC or Mac.

Bot Libre Desktop lets you create your own personal AI bot on your own computer. The bot is stored offline locally on your own computer without limits, and with complete privacy.

Download

Bot Libre Desktop uses the open source Bot Libre AI Engine, and the open source Bot Libre Desktop application from GitHub. Download the source and customize or contribute to the application.

Bot Libre Desktop on GitHub

Bot Libre Desktop let you choose from several different bot templates, including AI Bot, Julie, and Eddie.

You can chat with your bot using speech and an animated avatar. You can correct your bot's responses to train it to say new things.

Bot Libre Desktop is a Java application. You must have Java installed on your computer. If you do not have Java get in from here.

Download Java

The download is a zip file. To install the program just unzip it into your program files directory and runs the .exe file, or make a shortcut to the .exe in your start menu, menu bar, or desktop.

To run on Mac or Linux run the botlibre-desktop shell file, or run:

java -jar botlibre-desktop.jar

I'm totally newbie, I have downloaded the desktop version.

I saw there are a lot of Java script inside the bot app directory but nothing happen when I try to launch them.

I only can use the chat bot (i'm not interested to it) .

Is it there a guide available for the desktop version to learn and build (locally) bots?

Or any other specific guidance? (I've searched everywhere, no results)

Thank you

Bot Libre Desktop is a simple desktop interface for chatting with a bot.
The bot can be trained by correcting it while chatting with it.

The desktop version does not currently have an admin console for training or scripting the bot.

If you are a Java developer, you can also access and train the bot through Java code.
Refer to our AI engine and AI test source code for examples,

Thanks.

P.S.

Pheraps the definition given in the presentation is misleading:

"Bot Libre Desktop lets you createyour own personal AI bot on your own computer."

Should be: ChatBot,instead, isn't?

Best.

I am just getting started with this platform. Is it possible to add additional avatars from this website to the desktop app?

No, this is not currently possible.

We can create a custom avatar and app for you through our development services. Contact [email protected]

What are the steps to training this bot, and, will the "lessons learned" be retained on the next bootup?

For training a bot see,

See,

and,

The old desktop download does not allow much training. If you want a local install I would recommend our Docker web platform instead.
Then you can get the full functionality through a web browser to your local host.
