This is a nerd fever dream. Yeah I’m sure people can’t wait to run local models on their iPhones.

For those of using AI day to day, not being beholden to the whims of Anthropic and OpenAI is definitely a dream scenario.

Is Apple Intelligence not local models currently running on iPhones?

You don't have to sell it as a local model. Sell it as offline capabilities. Sell it as private background processing while your phone is idle and plugged in. Sell it as un-enshittified LLM once Anthropic and OpenAI inevitably screw everybody.
