New post by lead dev (Laurent) on the forums which has an interesting discussion going on. Glad that Laurent is not jumping on the LLM hype but rather asks the community for feedback and suggestions.

Post body text:

As you may know, Joplin already incorporates several AI-based features, including OCR (Optical Character Recognition), voice recognition, and the upcoming HTR (Handwritten Text Recognition).

However, we’ve received feedback suggesting that Joplin might still be lacking in AI features. This raises a question: What AI features would genuinely enhance Joplin for you?

Our goal is not to overwhelm the app with unnecessary or intrusive AI capabilities but rather to explore features that could add real value to your workflow. All of them would be optional in any case and, as we did for OCR or Voice Recognition, you’ll even have the possibility to self-host your AI model and link it to the app.

So if you’re using Joplin and have ever thought, “It would be great if such or such AI feature was available” we’d love to hear your thoughts!

Please share your ideas in the comments below! [Not sure if Laurent reads the lemmy posts so you should post on Joplin discourse forum if you want to submit a suggestion]
