Hello!
Hexabot is an open source conversational AI builder that allows you to create your own chatbot or virtual assistant. It's highly customizable, comes with a visual editor for easy setup, and can integrate with different LLM models. You can check out our repo on GitHub if you like this project: https://github.com/hexastack/hexabot
I recently recorded a proof of concept video on how to integrate any open source LLM (Large Language Model) using Ollama into a WordPress website : https://youtu.be/hyJW6JGCga4
I'd love to have a chatbot framework like this that can talk to me via the Matrix chat protocol. I've pretty much homed in on that (plus bridges) for my own private use. Yet all I ever find are chatbots for Discord, websites etc.
Technically, you can develop a channel for the Matrix chat protocol. It should be straightforward if you are familiar with Node.js/Typescript. In the Hexabot.ai website there is an extension library where can download and share extensions : https://hexabot.ai/extensions
You could use the Messenger channel as an example to build your own channels : https://hexabot.ai/extensions/67272f907ddd71f5fb2f0cd5
Thanks. I'm not a JS developer but I'll have a look at it. Btw the CONTRIBUTING.md in the last link doesn't work. And the amendments to the AGPL kind of contradict each other. IMO you can't not use the name Hexabot and be forced to use it at the same time. (And my personal opinion is you shouldn't modify licences anyways, since that mainly makes things incompatible and is just asking for legal troubles for anyone using a piece of software.) But I'm not a lawyer. Adding these things is mentioned in 7B, C and 7E of the AGPL. So you might be right and I'm wrong.
Is there any website that actually has a good and useful chatbot? To me they seem to be all just unnecessary bloat and distracting annoyances.
I think that chatbots are like any other software, it depends on who creates it and to which end. If we take the example of MidJourney, we can consider it as a useful software.
