It's fascinating how many real life use cases there are where local AI is so handy.
I was on a plane with my girlfriend and she was learning for a certification, while randomly complained that she couldn't practice on real tests (low cost life, no internet 😆)
Of course a @qvac prototype popped into my head -> you feed in some exam curriculum and you get tests based on it, works offline, and you can generate as many tests as you want, for free.
The power and beauty of local AI is amazing.

Among my favorite things building with @qvac is that the value/price ratio is sooo inverted. You can ship "intelligence" inside products, while fully private, for free, where small models perform more than fine.
Today's example, my productivity got a boost by dictating straight into whatever textbox I'm in instead of typing, with 2 open-source models under the hood.
No doubt there are equivalent products out there (in problem solving), but matching the trio: free + private + had a blast building it myself, trickier to find for me.
(just a personal prototype, not an official QVAC product)

Today I found out I should wear more blue and less tomato red.
Part of some recent prototypes I built with @qvac trying out different local models: a personal colour analysis running entirely on my machine.
Example, not a product, but turned out better than expected. Repo and the full write-up below.
