1. Check your CPU compatibility:

   If you're unsure whether your CPU supports AVX or AVX2 FMA, run the following command in your terminal:

4. Navigate to the extracted folder:

   cd PearAI/

5. Run the installation script with superuser permissions:

   bash pearai_manager.sh

6. Select your desired option:

   1. Install PearAI
   2. Uninstall PearAI
   3. Exit

7. Add the following alias to your ~/.bashrc or ~/.zshrc to run PearAI from any directory:

   alias pearai='PearAI'

   After adding the alias, run source ~/.bashrc or source ~/.zshrc to apply the changes.
