THE BASICS

What is General Chatbots?

An AI chatbot is a conversational tool built on a large language model that answers questions, drafts text, reasons through problems and holds a back-and-forth in plain language. General chatbots differ in what they emphasise: Grok focuses on real-time knowledge and reasoning with image generation, Duck.ai gives anonymous, privacy-first access to popular chat models, and GLM-5.2 is a strong all-rounder for chat, writing and coding while ERNIE 5.1 handles chat, writing and image generation.

Access falls into two camps. Several are free — Duck.ai and GLM-5.2 cost nothing to use — while most are freemium: Grok, luzia.com, AI Chatting and GitMind AI give you a free tier and charge for stronger models or higher limits. A few run entirely on your device: Layla is an offline, on-device assistant that works with no internet. Which one fits depends on whether you value privacy, free access, mobile use or the strongest reasoning.
