So, "local" would require a pretty powerful machine here and "cloud" might eventually stop being an option because they don't want you to do such things using their cloud models.
Other than that, you are starting to attain that tone of a person who thinks they are starting to understand something in depth, like a Linux convert that has learned that one can write shell scripts. Don't. You've used a glorified combination of Google and StackOverflow copypaste and it worked.
I litterally had the TV unplugged and sitting a basically a brick because it their software was such shit.
Worse that could happen was that it stayed bricked. I didn't "do" anything other than express what I wanted it to do, punch in the code it told me to to give it developer access to the TV, and then finish watching Gamers nexus.
Like I genuinely don't care what you think about this. I bought the 120 gb strix halo machine specifically for hosting local LLMs.
You have strong opinions. That's fine. But they are your opinions. Not mine.

Bruh its actually super fun if you have any networked/ IOT devices.
You can just take control, like you own them (because you do).
What even is this comment? Someone asked how, person above simply replied how it started, and now you attack him because..?
Got excited and wrong.
What do you mean wrong? Hacking home gadgets and smart devices is literally trending right now. Editing smart TVs is actually pretty meh, I've seen people edit firmware of common gadgets and smart devices to do whatever you want.

Using AI to remove power from the corporations is one right use case of it.
