I Forked Karpathy's LLM Council project... The Result is INSANE! 🚀

Did Andrej Karpathy's excellent "LLM Council" feel too raw and limited? I fixed it. In this video, I reveal "LLM Council Plus" - a fully upgraded fork that adds a professional UI, web search capabilities, and full support for ANY LLMs via APIs as local models through Ollama.

ABOUT THIS VIDEO:
The original LLM Council was a brilliant concept, but it lacked usability and choice. I spent a couple of weekends improving it and adding tons of options. I cover how to connect OpenRouter, run local Ollama models like Phi-4, and use a real-time web search tool.

KEY TAKEAWAYS:
✅ Run Local LLM Councils using Ollama (Privacy-focused) and remote AI providers
✅ Compare 8+ Models simultaneously with a Visual Leaderboard
✅ Enable Web Search for real-time fact-checking
