Hello rosariosanto , we apologize for this issue, it has been fixed now. Please pull the latest main branch of depthai before running depthai_demo.py.
1) It's a tool (more info here) that lets you convert and download models - makes it much easier to do model conversion/compilation compared to locally doing so with OpenVINO toolkit (model optimizer & compile_tool).
2) It was an issue with the certificate, otherwise the server is online 24/7. Sorry again for the inconvenience.

I'm using the latest code from github for the demo, python 3.9 and windows 10
