I've tested so many desktop AI tools, but Hermes with Ollama is my new favorite - here's why

This ZDNet review examines Hermes, an AI desktop autonomous agent, describing its core components (memory, skills, soul, crons, session recall), installation options (official installer or via Ollama), model onboarding, and a practical workflow where Hermes attempted to build a desktop app; the author praises its features (model switching, session artifacts, cron jobs, voice interaction) but notes issues with a PyQT5 installation instruction and hitting a query quota.
