I'm in a corporate environment. There's a study group to see if maybe we can potentially get some value out of those AI tools. They've been "studying" the issue for over a year now. They expect to get some cloud service that we can safely use Real Soon Now. So, it'll take at least two more quarters before I can actually use those non-local tools on company related data. Probably longer, because sense of urgency is not this company's strong suit. Anyway, as a developer I can run a lot of things locally. Local AI doesn't leak data, so it's safe. It's not as good as the online tools, but for some things they're better than nothing.
