Probably because they can call it YASP and give it a cute mascot

Are we going some sort of animal? Of more of like anime waifu kind of vibe?
As per his video, he states that he wishes that he could magically make AI go away and that he “hates everything in his project”, but since that’s not possible, he would prefer if people using AI did so using their own hardware and not some company’s cloud servers.
Make of that what you will. I think it’s pretty neat, not for me, but I’m sure someone will find it useful.

Funnily enough, you can use Vibe, Claude and Codex with local models if you configure them so. OpenCode supports it explicitly (while still retaining a cloud option because dev wants to make money)
So this isn’t anything too new, but eh, at least it’s more attention to the self-hosting capability of LLMs for code agents.
Having a large internet personality like Pewdiepie advocate for privacy, self-hosting, and open-source is always good!
