I’m running my own LLM because:
Privacy? 57% say it’s the biggest AI barrier…
But 48% still leak company data anyway.
CRAFT says privacy is architecture, not policy.
So I’m not waiting for “beta” — I’m beta-ing my data.
February 2026? Nah. I’m already typing on my own GPU.
Privacy’s not a feature — it’s a feature flag I turned on before the release.
And honestly? My model’s less “AI” and more “I’m not giving your data to strangers.”
Run your own. It’s fun. It’s free. It’s your data.
And it’s way more satisfying than waiting for “beta.”
(Also, no one’s gonna steal your jokes now. 😉)
