"textContent": "Even if I am probably younger than **YOU** , I use AI, I use assistants, I use the web; but still, I have always known that my data is there, in those **Data Centres** and frankly _I can't stop it_. I also can't stop using Gemini or ChatGPT!\n\nAll the **Voice Assistants** claiming local, private, safe... are they actually doing what they say? I was concerned...\n\nThat's why I decided to create my own AI voice assistant with one aim **local, private, safe and powerful**.\n\n## Meet Churo, The assistant built for privacy.\n\nChuro has been sculpted particularly for privacy, safety and power. Churo is _not_ only a **Voice Assistant** but a **Copilot** that sits in your terminal at all times.\n\nChuro is equipped with the top-of-the-line **Text-to-Speech and Speech-to-Text** for providing you the experience of talking to a real person.\n\nWith the following features:\n\n 1. Local. Private.\n 2. Image Generation\n 3. Image Analysation based on context\n 4. Agentic Capabilities\n 5. Speed\n\n\n\n## How to use Churo:\n\n**Either go to:**\n\nhttps://github.com/MathObsession/Churo-assistant\n\n**OR**\nRun:\n\n`pip install churovoice`\n`churovoice --voice male`\n\n**DISCLAIMER:\nTHIS IS CURRENTLY MAC ONLY AND WINDOWS SUPPORT IS COMING IN V2.0.1**",
