I don't use my M3 Max in public, but running local models on it makes me uncomfortable because of fans too.

I also have a Dell laptop that spin up fans if I open a text editor, and it feels normal, but on Mac, I feel like fans spinning up is me somehow abusing it and shortening its lifespan.

Reminds me of a previous generation (plastic shell) MBP drawing both AC and battery for sustained peak performance, fans spinning.
