I've built a PostgreSQL extension using Rust that integrates with the OpenAI API. This extension, `pg_summarize`, showcases how Rust's performance and safety can enhance PostgreSQL's extensibility. It starts with a simple "Hello, pg_summarize!" function as a beginner setup and progresses to a more advanced function that summarizes text using OpenAI's models. This project demonstrates the potential of adding custom functionality to PostgreSQL, making it a smarter and more capable database system.

The GitHub issue #4424 for Zed relates to the lack of a feature for using local large language models (LLMs). In response to this, I proposed a workaround that enables the integration of local LLMs into Zed. This solution addresses the need for a non-proprietary, offline alternative to mainstream models like ChatGPT, potentially increasing privacy and control for users.
To integrate a custom model in Zed, I bypassed the limitation of only using OpenAI models. I did this by running the Mistral model from the Ollama library and cloning it to appear as "gpt-4-1106-preview." The steps included pulling and running the Mistral model, then using Ollama's commands to clone it. I updated Zed's settings to point to the local API URL of the cloned model. Restarting Zed applied these changes, enabling the use of the local LLM within Zed's environment.
