Is it possible for an open-source AI that you run at home to become as powerful as that of chatgpt and others at that level?
This Reddit thread from r/ChatGPT discusses whether locally-run open-source AI models can match the capabilities of frontier models like ChatGPT. Leading open-source models like Llama 3.3 70B and Deep
This Reddit thread from r/ChatGPT discusses whether locally-run open-source AI models can match the capabilities of frontier models like ChatGPT. Leading open-source models like Llama 3.3 70B and DeepSeek R1 now match GPT-4-level performance in many tasks, and while they may lag slightly in some specialized areas, the gap has closed significantly. However, the larger, more powerful open-source models that come much closer to rivaling closed-source state-of-the-art models require serious computational horsepower , making consumer hardware a key limiting factor for running the most capable models at home.
