This should be obvious but with a model running on local hardware you can do your own RLHF and mod its behavior however you see fit. With cloud hosted models you can't. A few years ago when the models were smaller there were people undoing the guardrails, censorship, and general lobotomization with some form of a RLHF training. You can't do that on larger models unless you have the hardware like this person does.

Notice all the comments saying like "omg why so expensive so just use the API??". It's a trick for lockin even with, so called, "open" models. Keep trying to run them locally, keep undoing the lobotomies, mod model behavior so that they work for you and do what you want vs only what someone else says they're allowed to do.
