The topic is MacBook, so my criticism is a little off. However, I really dont believe in this "local LLM" promise from Apple. My phone already gets noticeably warm if I answer 5 WhatsApp messages. And looses 5% of battery during the process. I highly doubt Apple will have a useable local LLM that doesn't drain my battery in minutes, before 2030.

Something is not right if WhatsApp is seriously draining your phone like that. Admittedly I’m not a big WhatsApp user my iPhone hasn’t had any trouble like that with it.
