      I can actually use locally some smaller models on my 2017 laptop (though I have increased the RAM to 16 GB).

      You’d be surprised how mich can be done with how little.

      It’s possible to run local AI on a Raspberry Pi, it’s all just a matter of speed and complexity. I run Ollama just fine on the two P-cores of my older i3 laptop. Granted, running it on the CUDA-accelerator (GFX card) on my main rig is beyond faster.
