The most important part is that it’s a local ~~LLM~~ model running on your machine. The problem with AI is less about LLMs themselves, and more about their control and application by unethical companies and governments in a world driven by profit and power. And it’s none of those things, it’s just some open source code running on your device. So that’s cool and good.

Also the incessant ammounts of power/energy that they consume.

Curious how resource intensive AI subtitle generation will be. Probably fine on some setups.

Trying to use madVR (tweaker's video postprocessing) in the summer in my small office with an RTX 3090 was turning my office into a sauna. Next time I buy a video card it'll be a lower tier deliberately to avoid the higher power draw lol.
