About time this hit enterprise.
Been saying the downfall of OpenAI and Anthropic will be local models that can accomplish the same thing without needing a dstacenter worth of GPUs to run.
Plus you have no total token limit on self hosted models. You can let a slop agent run for weeks without ballooning costs or getting rate limited.
And no model censoring, so you can go build that nuclear bomb you always wanted lol.
Both AI giants are already losing a ton of money because their pricing isn’t viable for the amount of training they’re doing trying to be on top. If they readjust, they’re gonna suffocate against much cheaper solutions.

Microsoft predicted this some time ago which is why they have begun pushing a Hybrid Model where tasks are run locally first and only going to the cloud for heavy lift.
