You don't understand the difference between "I run a local LLM because I chose to" vs "The browser chose to run a local LLM and I have no say"? You don't understand?

Not to mention that the LLM that I choose to run requires a monster machine and is infinitely more capable than whatever google chose to put on their browser?

I mean, none of this affects me because I don't use chrome, obviously, but you don't see the difference? Bewildering.

Did you opt into WebGPU? QUIC? Canvas 2D? Brotli? Browsers don't work that way.

The size difference between the local LLM and all of the above is about... the size of the local LLM.
