I’m kind of new to local AI and wondering what’s the move here? Are they trying to pull off a chrome/android situation? Obviously I don’t trust any of these gafam giants but I would be really interested in running a local LLM on my M1 max (briefly used deepseek last year). My use case would be mostly chat functions to help with academic and text analysis tasks (don’t worry I don’t just blindly trust LLMs, I know what I’m doing), so recommendations are welcome.


“i know what I am doing” has been heard also from the overseer of that nuclear power plant, how was that called? Ah, Chernobyl…
Lol, you have no clue about my use of AI.
Sarcasm is such an underrated skill
I mean, sarcasm require a proper context and is definitely not always clear in written comments, especially in the era of trolls and social media shitshows.
That is true, yes, I should have added a /s that clarifies. My intention wasn’t to troll.
