You're right, local models aren't as good as cloud models That's not the point though The point is to have free, private intelligence that can do work for you 24/7 around the clock I have a 3 local models scraping Reddit, product hunt, and other sites 24/7 Looking for challenges to solve That model hands all of those challenges to another local model That model takes the challenges, then builds apps to solve those challenges A 24/7/365 software factory that never sleeps Would never be possible in a million years with cloud models. Would cost me $10,000 a month in tokens. I paid that one time up front for a Mac Studio that runs this Yes Claude Opus 4.6 is smarter than Qwen 3.5. But Qwen 3.5 running locally is still Sonnet 4.5 level. Just 6 months behind. Think about how good it will be 6 months from now. Nvidia just entered the local race. They are going to change EVERYTHING That's not even counting all the other benefits: 1. You can't get banned for using the model the wrong way 2. Costs just the price of electricity 3. Completely private. No AI execs reading your logs 4. 0 latency 5. Completely customizable This is the future. Become sovereign.
