I fear the future of local models will be controlled by governments. I feel like some time soon there's going to be a crackdown on what is available to download, what is hostable, and what is "acceptable". I partially suspect it has something to do with why 128 GB seems to be the most you can currently purchase for a single machine, despite the price.
And we push ever closer to the edge of cyberpunk. Psst, interested in some black market heretical Mythos weights?
