Honestly, this is the AI software I actually look forward to seeing. No hype about it being too dangerous to release. No IPO pumping hype. No subscription fees. I am so pumped to try this!

Same here. I really hope in a near future local model will be good enough and hardware fast enough to run them to become viable for most use cases

No need to hope; it is inevitable.

		Is it inevitable though? Open-weight models large enough to come close to an API model are insanely expensive to run for con/prosumers. I'd put the “expensive” bar at ≥24GB since that's already well into 4 digits, which gives you quite many months of a subscription, not including the power will for >400W continuous. Color me pessimistic, but this feels like a pipe dream.
