Alexey Fateev(@superalesha):"Local AI is not cheaper and not frontier" Correct, its not frontier. I never said it was, and I still pay for closed models myself. My point is different. Last week OpenAI cut the $200 Pro plan in half with one announcement. Same price, half the usage. Nobody asked the people paying. Nobody can do that to the model on my disk. Qwen runs today the same way it ran the day I downloaded it. No weekly limit, no new tier, no email about "efficiency". And every few months the 27B gets better on the card I already own. You are not paying for the frontier. You are paying for permission to use it, and the permission keeps getting smaller. I want a way out, and local is the only one that exists.

With all due respect to the Local AI bros it's great and all but please don't be delusional and tell people they should Cancel their Subs and run local. No it's nowhere near the frontier and No it's not cheaper and out right impossible for a lot of people to afford the down payment. When Opus 5.5 is running on a gaming PC then okay sure.
