Well shit.

I've only figured out how to just run one locally on a Steam Deck, not build and train one.

Still though, even for this more primitive one you built, I'm guessing the overall file footprint size of it was orders of magnitude greater than what you could fit into a megabyte of more simpler chatbot that runs in a local terminal, right?

Oh sure. The training data is about 5mb so easily manageable on a relatively modern machine, but not on the kind of thing that was used for ELIZA.
