What’s the fundamental difference between a frontier model and a local model anyway?

    Yes, exactly my point! “Frontier” vs “local” isn’t a useful distinction . “proprietary vs open” is a much more useful distinction. Although I suspect people use “frontier” as shorthand for “way too large to run at home practically”.

      That's effectively what it means. You can run frontier models at home e.g. Kimi K3, but you'd need a large amount of money.
