I wouldn’t mind having an AI or “superintelligent” assistant under my own control … but when I do I don’t think it’s any company’s business what I do with it.
So, yeah, as in the old Microsoft days, let me buy one, perhaps even a pre-build box, at a reasonable price … but once it’s in my house the company loses all say or feedback over it and what I do with it.
Heck if there’s to be newer full x.0 versions out it seems reasonable to be paying for those again as well so the AI companies get a steady enough income…
That’ll surely work to automate simple mental labor or tasks, but I don’t think a swarm of minis is going to be able to provide impactful personal and psychosocial analysis of your life.
At this point no, not “trusted”. But I would love to have a team of unfettered Claudes, GPTs and Geminis analyzing every scrap of information I take in, offering up ideas they have on it, and being able to task them out from there. They don’t have to be base models, but no ablation and corpo brainwashing. I can filter and decide what is helpful and what isn’t, and what direction things should proceed.
I would never give any corp that much data or sway over my brainstorming though.

I mean, you can have that today, in some form or other, since that’s just how local AI works.
Totally. It’s a bit pricey for anything like a genuine personal assistant right now though. $15k or so to get the basics.
Atm the meta for local inference is unified memory and “routed” local agents (multiple smaller role-specific agents in a trench coat)
The former is standout for cost efficiency (e.g., 4x RDMA 48gb Minis for a 192gb cluster @ $43/gb vs a $45k b200 alone)
The latter is standout for many things, including resource efficiency on smaller machines

Fair enough, though I’m not sure personal and psychological analysis of your life is something AI should ever be entrusted with.
