Local AI. Finally, a tool.

This turned out more LinkedIn than Facebook, so here you go ;) """ I’ve been tinkering with local AI models for three years now. And it has always ended the same way: either you have to assemble everything yourself like an IKEA cupboard with no instructions, or you get an answer that feels as though it came from an exhausted intern.

Now. Bionic from LM Studio + Muse Glimmer from Meta.

For the first time, I can actually imagine my mother-in-law running this at home without having to call me.

The interface is clean and fast, and you don’t need a PhD to work out where to click. And the model? It talks and thinks in a way that doesn’t make you dizzy with disappointment when you compare it with the big cloud offerings. It delivers.

Does it take a decent computer and plenty of memory? Yes. But the difference, the whole experience compared with what came before, is enormous. This no longer feels like a project. It feels like a tool.

Finally.
