I've been interested in running AI locally because of the privacy and control it gives you, but I'm still trying to figure out which tasks really make sense without relying on cloud models.

For research, for example, I've been comparing the experience of using local models with tools like ResearchMaster.ai. Local models give you more control over where your data goes, but cloud-based tools can sometimes make things like gathering and organizing information much simpler

Some things seem like an obvious fit, while others feel unnecessarily complicated when a cloud tool can handle them in seconds.
