You probably need to be familiar with TOML configuration files, but other than that the server should run fairly easily.</p> AI Search 2023-02-16T14:40:00+00:00 2023-02-16T14:40:00+00:00 Paul Wilde https://paulwilde.uk/ponderings/freshgpt/ <p>A poem about AI search engines</p> <blockquote> <p>This is a story all about how<br /> Your query got twist-turned upside down<br /> And I’d like to show an answer just sit right there<br /> It might not be fully accurate but I don’t care</p> </blockquote> Why I have turned off my BirdsiteLIVE instance 2022-12-21T11:36:00+00:00 2022-12-21T11:36:00+00:00 Paul Wilde https://paulwilde.uk/ponderings/turning-off-birdsitelive/ <p>Hello.
