Gergely Orosz Says Local AI Models Are Inevitable

Gergely Orosz, a software engineer, former Uber and Skype manager, and author of The Pragmatic Engineer newsletter on Substack, stated that local AI models seem inevitable. He explained his preference for running a good enough model on his laptop or phone to avoid depending on API services whose prices can change without his control. Orosz added that AI labs will hate this future while cloud providers will love it. The comment appeared in a public post.
