Can local LLMs be as useful and insightful as those widely available?
@[email protected] if you are willing to dismiss all of the reasons someone would prefer self-hosting an LLM, then of course a paid one will fare better, you self-host LLMs for privacy, or to tweak things which you cant do with external services, plus, in some cases it can be cheaper if you dont need a giant model to do a few basic things.
