I'm still running Qwen32b-coder on a Mac mini. Works great, a little slow, but fine.

I'm somewhat tech savvy, how do I run llm locally. Any suggestions? How to know if my local data is safe

I have been using a program called GPT4ALL and you can download many models and run them locally. They give you a prompt at boot if you want to share data or not. I select no and use it offline anyway.

Checkout lm studio https://lmstudio.ai/ and you can pair it with vs continue extension https://docs.continue.dev/getting-started/overview.
