@stroughtonsmith Anything bad about buying that Wal-Mart M1 Air?

@mikecane not especially. 256GB storage would be a struggle if you’re doing anything too complex, but one could cope

@mikecane online LLM? Local is always going to want the most power or future hardware

@mikecane maybe wait to see what Apple announces with their AI at WWDC; an M1 is an incredible chip but it’s a far cry from the state of the art for on-device AI. Image generation is 30X slower than my gaming PC, for example. You might get away with text, but these models use a lot of space and RAM. Worth seeing what Apple's optimized models bring
