An LLM chat app using Apple's FoundationModels

Despite Apple’s fairly clear warnings that their 3B 4K model is not for use as a chat app, I had to try anyway. There’s definitely plenty of work to do but it’s starting to become useful. Happy to answer any questions about limitations, what it’s good at, and how to coax it. The safety guardrails and forced disneyfication make this especially challenging.
