Video showcasing Brave's Leo AI using an LLM via a custom API provider

SUMMARY
With LLMs being widely used for RAG workloads like text analysis, summarizations, etc... especially in PDFs, it would be cool to see support for this in Okular as well as this could boost productivity a lot for users. The idea is to replicate the what something like Google's NotebookLM could do on a per-document basis. This can already be achieved by Brave browser using Leo AI's Bring Your Own Model approach. 

EXPECTED RESULT
A toggle like "Leo AI" on a side bar or main bar that opens a panel with ability to ask questions, summarize, etc.... (refer the attachment)

I don't think it is compatible with being a Blue Angel Eco certified application to also offer direct in-app energy wasting bullshit generator tools.

i wouldnt personally call them bullshit generator tools since they can be quite useful sometimes but if the certification matters, this could threaten that and i get that.
