Can someone explain to mr why these people are buying Mac Minis to run this in a "safe" environment and then they go on and connect it to the internet and give the AI credentials to all their cloud accounts? This seems excessively moronic to me? Am I missing something?
I don't think you're missing anything. I'm pretty sure this is the trend. People buy Mac Minis, probably don't even download a local model, FA, and FO.
