I like LLMs even with their (big and inherent) flaws.
However, I also don't like it to be sprinkled everywhere. I want affordable smaller LLMs that run locally on my own hardware. RAM prices right now make that financially impossible for me.
That way I'm the one who has to deal with the flaws (even more with smaller LLMs) and the energy prices but on the other hand it's private and I have sovereignty. Nobody can turn off features or change the model or increase subscription prices or change the API or steal my data.
