Isn’t Poolside AI US-based? They recently released an open model for coding that I’ve found useful and it’s small enough to run on consumer hardware (16GB 5080 + 32GB system RAM). Giant models are useless for anyone but the big players with datacenters regardless if they are open or closed. Small, focused models seem like the real winning play for general use if you want true independence from the walled gardens and datacenters. I don’t really like AI coding but I’ve been using Copilot for work and was experimenting on some side projects with free models on Cline, but most interested in the tech if I can run it locally.
