Not just one, but two replies completely hung up on that. Like, why even reply when you already saw the other guy doing the same tired pedantry? Just wanted to feel like you contributed?

Ignoring that it was just tosser hyperbole (that absolutely zero reasonable people need to question), yes, enormous numbers of people are buying GPUs or hardware with the explicit goal of running local LLMs, and social media is full of people hyping various setups and models. Mac Minis are almost impossible to find, and that alone is selling at a clip of about 300,000 every four months. Large memory GPUs are basically a myth at this point. All so people can pay more to get a worse result than commercial options, which is precisely the point of the submission.

These local setups only ever make sense if you have something that confidential, or you're doing something that ToS of the majors would ban you for.

Now given this pedantry horseshit, you'll probably demand that I specifically show a citation on DGX or Studio sales, which...rofl.
