### Khoj Chat
#### Overview
- Creates a personal assistant for you to inquire and engage with your notes
- You can choose to use Online or Offline Chat depending on your requirements
- Supports multi-turn conversations with the relevant notes for context
- Shows reference notes used to generate a response
### Setup
#### Offline Chat
Offline chat works without internet but it is slower, lower quality and more compute intensive.
!> **Warning**: This will download a 3Gb+ Llama v2 chat model which can take some time
- Open your [Khoj settings](http://localhost:42110/config/), click *Enable* on the Offline Chat card

#### Online Chat
Online chat requires internet to use ChatGPT but is faster, higher quality and less compute intensive.
