I have a question regarding the AI plugin. Currently, I only see OpenAI as an option. Is it possible for us to use a local model, such as Ollama, or another program that lets us host our own models? This would help us save on costs since the tokens would be free.

See Discourse AI - Large Language Model (LLM) settings page . Also look at Getting discourse ai to work with ollama locally and Self-Hosting an OpenSource LLM for DiscourseAI .
