Perplexity brings local AI workflows to Macs with 36GB of RAM
Original: Perplexity makes it easier to run AI workflows entirely on your own Mac A Mac with at least 36GB of RAM can now run Perp
Perplexity has made it possible to run its AI workflows entirely locally on a Mac, with machines equipped with at least 36GB of RAM able to handle the workloads on their own. The move means users can process AI tasks on their own hardware without sending data to the cloud, a step likely to appeal to privacy-conscious users and those working offline.
Why now: Interest in running AI models locally on consumer hardware is growing, and Perplexity lowering the barrier to on-device workflows is a notable development.
