Allero@lemmy.today 3 weeks agoModern LLMs can serve you for most tasks while running locally on your machine.
Something like GPT4ALL will do the trick on any platform of your choosing if you have at least 8gb of RAM (and for most people nowadays it’s true).
It has a simple, idiot-proof GUI and doesn’t collect data if you don’t allow it to. It’s also open source.

If you want actual good features like deep research or chain of thought, eh, not sure it’s a good choice
The models will also not be very powerful

And you don’t need any of that. You don’t even need a local LLM.
So if you decide you want it, then that’s on you, and you have made the choice to give up your data.

and you don’t need a computer, and you don’t need to eat good food
It’s just that you lose so much productivity, comfort and so on
When such a tool is a difference between 30 mins and 5 hours of work, then you simply use it

If you think LLMs are as fundamental as having a computer or internet access, then I really just don’t know what to say.
