I need a local model without espionage, which can translate text into several languages and not heat up my hardware too much, since computers are getting more expensive now.

LibreTranslate isn't AI, but it's alright, it'll let you get the general gist of something. if you want something that works with your local ollama, then there's Page Assist for Firefox and its forks. you can pop it into the sidebar and when you open it it will let you run prompts on the current page.

libretranslate has a new project going on focused on AI translation: https://github.com/LibreTranslate/LTEngine

That's nice, because LLMs seem to translate things better than the regular tools, especially when it comes to things like idioms.

Welcome to LocalLLaMA! Here we discuss running and developing machine learning models at home. Lets explore cutting edge open source neural network technology together.

Get support from the community! Ask questions, share prompts, discuss benchmarks, get hyped at the latest and greatest model releases! Enjoy talking about our awesome hobby.

As ambassadors of the self-hosting machine learning community, we strive to support each other and share our enthusiasm in a positive constructive way.

Rules:

Rule 1 - No harassment or personal character attacks of community members. I.E no namecalling, no generalizing entire groups of people that make up our community, no baseless personal insults.

Rule 2 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning models to cryptocurrency. I.E no comparing the usefulness of models to that of NFTs, no comparing the resource usage required to train a model is anything close to maintaining a blockchain/ mining for crypto, no implying its just a fad/bubble that will leave people with nothing of value when it burst.

Rule 3 - No comparing artificial intelligence/machine learning to simple text prediction algorithms. I.E statements such as "llms are basically just simple text predictions like what your phone keyboard autocorrect uses, and they're still using the same algorithms since <over 10 years ago>.

Rule 4 - No implying that models are devoid of purpose or potential for enriching peoples lives.
