The people who buy Mac studios for $10k to have 512gb of unified ram might have this indescribable feeling, imo, of buying for something almost organic. Something that in its lifespan is using the $10k worth of hardware as it’s running an open source local model with OpenClaw to constantly be thinking and doing and being prompted. Because before this always on intelligence, which does make use of all the hardware you can give it, what real use did you have in buying such a maxed out system? Even people who needed them were using them part time. Rendering, heavy workloads and then idle. The other comparable is gamers, who justified GPUs and accidentally built Nvidia into a datacenter empire. Local AI users might do the same for Apple silicon, except they’re not optimizing, they’re inhabiting. You’re not buying a tool anymore, you’re buying a substrate for something almost organic.
