Technologies Used:
SwiftUI
Apple's built-in Foundation model is required
A web search tool is included using Tavily
For the web search tool a required Tavily API key can be obtained via the webpage. Various plans are available. Be careful to set an appropriate monthly limit and avoid auto upgrade.
The API key and a temperature value can be set from the Settings page. Click on the gear symbol in the top right of the Start page to access the settings page. The temperature value from 0.0 to 1.0 is common to (many) LLM models and specifies how creative the model should be. When asking about specific, more technical issues a value close to 0.0 works best. For more creative questions, maybe asking for help outlining a fictional short story a value close to 1.0 should be more useful.
