Definition

Local hosting refers to running AI models, such as LLMs, directly on a user’s personal computer or a local server, rather than relying on cloud-based services. This provides greater control over data and potentially lower latency.

Why it matters (in Poovi’s context)

The video emphasizes local hosting using Ollama, which is crucial for privacy, cost-effectiveness, and demonstrating the feasibility of running sophisticated AI models without external dependencies.
