Al right, if those are ran locally it's great. But I take issue at the fact that they make it difficult to tell. And I'd be really surprised if they didn't try

Al right, if those are ran locally it's great. But I take issue at the fact that they make it difficult to tell. And I'd be really surprised if they didn't try to leverage an internet connection when available. A pre-trained model sounds a bit less useful, but that's likely a better use of the energy that would otherwise be spent training individual models. > It didn't work for last 15 years, why do you think it'll suddenly start working now? Well, it seems to be kind of working with chromebooks. The market has changed since then. And Google really didn't do a thing about it for that whole time... Also, legislation is slow to catch up, but I would have hoped for some "right to repair" or similar to chime in at some point, and change the cost-benefit analysis. But it might yet change. Lima, Freedreno, VC4 are slowly becoming usable for the GPU, and there is a slow but steady uptake of devices getting their drivers mainlined. It's a shame that mostly concerns older devices, as people don't necessarily like to tinker with their $1k+ devices.
