Bought b70 with egpu enclosure and usb4 connection wasn't really planning to actually run anything but now ended up with llama.cpp with openwebui - kids/parents want to/have to use chat, might as well provide local solution than them using industry options. Also started with ollama and Gemma 4 26b a4b - asked it to write script to setup llama.cpp in container.
Yeah, I've heard the B70 is good bang for buck. My kids love using chat GPT to generate images and I'm aware that there are some really capable local models that can do that as well now - B70 should make short work of it.
That may be something for me to look at later on if I decide to keep self hosting.
OTOH, I'm also aware that I may end up building something that they don't actually use. Been there, done that, and I don't want to do it again.
Actually, on that topic, one interesting use case for me is my youngest one wants to have a YouTube channel.
So obviously, I'm not going to let her become a YouTuber, but what I'm thinking of doing is providing her my old phone (properly locked down) so that she can video record clips that she wants.
Then, have those clips sent automatically to our jellyfin server so it appears like a channel. Code a fake YT plugin so that AI can do likes, positive comments etc.
It's... work. I dunno...maybe a good enough AI can vibe slop the entire project for me.
