No advertising nonfree software, thanks.

Also, I'd like you to know that training such "high quality" LLMs comes
at a larger cost than is given back in use in societal or environmental
terms.

Hi Liliana,
I'm not sure if I understand your message. Do you say Guix does not want to
package this?
This is a package you can use with Ollama and is packaged on GNU ELPA as
well.
Greetings, Roman.

I'm not aware of the quality control procedures at ELPA, but if you
copied that bit from the description, they might have overlooked some
README nastiness.

As far as the functionality is concerned, by all means add it, but we
have principles here, even if they permit calling out to dubious APIs.

Cheers
  

Hi Liliana,
could you please provide more constructive feedback and suggest what the
description should say? I took the description from the README of the
package. I'm here to make Guix better. If you don't want this package that
is also fine, then I keep it in my own channel.
Roman.

I don't have any concrete suggestions here, but for comparison, ellama
looks fine.  The packages probably do different things, hence the two
of them but it should be possible to write about this one based on its
technical merits without resorting to ad speak.

HTH
  

Hi Liliana,

I sent a v2 of the patch for the emacs-llm package. I now changed the
description of the package. I hope it does not contain anything what you
refered to as ad speak.

If it still does not fit your needs, please change it to your liking or
suggest something better.

Thanks, Roman.
