    Alex Finn describes building a home lab to run local modelsA local model runs on computing infrastructure controlled directly by the user rather than only through a remote model service. and recommends identifying actual use cases before buying hardware. He discusses continuously running tasks such as code checks and security scans.

    Alex Finn compares high-memory Macs, dedicated AI computers and graphics cards in terms of model capacity, memory bandwidth and costAI compute infrastructure is the hardware, facilities, networks, power, cooling, storage, and software used to train and run AI models.. His comparisons reflect his own hardware choices and experience.
