What’s yours? Pay Anthropic $2k/mo to generate fake C&D letters and send them out to random businesses?

Unless you have a plan that doesn’t rely on the service-based models, then I don’t see where you’re going with this. Sure, you can use self-hosted models, assuming you’re fine paying for the GPUs (Jensen Hwang? Lisa Su? Lip-Bu Tan if you’re feeling special?) and power to run them of course. But you’ll be “behind” the big cloud-based models, endlessly chasing after them.

Or, hear me out, don’t use them and do it all yourself and you won’t have to pay these companies and make their execs richer.
