Going local is taxing on your hardware that is extremely expensive to replace. Hell, it could soon become almost impossible to replace. I genuinely don‘t recommend it.

Even if you HAVE to use LLMs for some reason, there are free alternatives right now that let Silicon Valley bleed money and they‘re quickly running out of it.

Cancelling any paid subscription probably hurts them more than anything else.

    If LLM is tied to making you productive, going local is about owning and controlling the means of production.

    You aren't supposed to run it on machine you work on anyway, do a server and send requests.
