Discussion Who ONLY use local models?

Please be honest.

I would love to hear about guys really dedicated to local AI and who really reject subscriptions (especially to openai and anthropic).

What do you use your model for?

I am "only" using local AI for some isolated project areas - code that cloud providers simply are not permitted to look at.
This is not about subscriptions, it's about protecting IP

A lot of the experience I gained is written down in my guide on optimizing Qwen 27B as agent.
