Because I have nothing better to do...
I am going to train a local instance of ChatGPT with Pelican Parts 911 Forum posts.
Because I am new to this I am simply going to follow the instructions here:

Using my best Jeremy Clarkson impersonation, "How hard can it be?"
I know the forums are searchable, but hey, the kids these days don't search and just want to ask questions. And let's face it, many of the experts have left the earth, and hopefully they have enough posts that this machine can learn from.
I do realize that the "free" version has a limit and I'm willing to spend a few bucks here and there, but I have no plans to "productize" this. This is a learning exercise. I may even reach the limits of my local machine. So if you have ideas about how to run this on a server on the cheap, I'm all ears.
Here's my question. Should I pick posts by a specific set of people? Or should I just pick specific topics like no-start issues, sputtering and stalling?
