This is a huge patch which does some major refactoring like: - renaming "Image Generation" to "Image Creation" in most places, to better match its new command (`!bai image create`) - relocating image creation command (`!bai image` -> `!bai image create`), so it wouldn't conflict with the new image editing command (`!bai image edit`) - introducing a new image editing command (`!bai image edit`), which is meant to work only with the OpenAI provider, but doesn't fully work yet due to https://github.com/64bit/async-openai/issues/364, though a next patch will fix it - adding support for reading images off of Matrix conversations and forwarding them to text conversations. Works for OpenAI, but not for Anthropic yet (requires custom patches) and not for OpenAI-Compat (no support for images there) - relocating some utils around (base64, mime)
baibot
🤖 baibot is an AI (Large Language Model) bot for Matrix built by etke.cc (managed Matrix servers).
The name is pronounced 'bye'-bot and is a play on AI, referencing the fictional character 🇧🇬 Bai Ganyo.
It's designed as a more private and featureful alternative to matrix-chatgpt-bot. It's influenced by chaz, but does not use the AIChat CLI tool and instead does everything in-process, without forking.
