There is already GPT4All.

Convenient graphical interface, any model you like (for Llama fans - of course it's there), fully local, easy to opt in or out of data collection, and no fuss to install - it's just a Linux/Windows/MacOS app.

For Linux folks, it is also available as flatpak for your convenience.

So it doesnt require internet access at all? I would only use these on a disconnected part of my network.

Yes, it works perfectly well without Internet. Tried it both on physically disconnected PC and laptop in airplane mode.
