This is a Python application that runs an AI-powered quiz show on your local computer. It has two modes: one where human players answer questions hosted by an AI, and another where two AI characters compete against each other while you watch. The quiz host and players are each controlled by a local AI model running through a program called Ollama, which lets you run large language models privately on your own machine without sending data to the internet. During a quiz, the AI host asks questions, players respond, and scores are tracked automatically. All of the dialogue is spoken aloud using a voice tool called Chatterbox, which supports voice cloning so the characters can speak in any voice you provide via a WAV file. The conversation is shown in a desktop window, and every session is saved as a time-stamped HTML file you can keep as a record of past games. The default setup uses Google's Gemma models, which the author found work well for following the quiz format. You can swap in different models by editing the Python script, though the README warns that many models struggle to follow the quiz logic correctly. Setup is Windows-only and requires Python 3.11 specifically, plus Ollama installed and running in a separate command-line window, and a machine with at least 16 GB of RAM. Background music plays while the AI generates answers, quiz topics can be changed from the app window using plain language, and the number of human players can go up to 30, though the interface gets crowded above 8. The author included a link to their own music video at the bottom of the app window. This is a single-author personal project released as a public tool for Windows users who want a novelty AI-powered quiz game.
