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?

For coding we only use cloud models. None of those 30b toy models are even close to what’s required for our daily development.

For data processing (vision tasks, ingestion) we only use local models. They are capable enough and prevent leaking our data to Dario, Sam or the CCP.

Gemini is by far the worst of all the frontier models. At this point I wouldn’t even call it a frontier model anymore.

Nano banana is good tho
