Local AI Lab --- Why I Want to Stop Relying on Cloud AI for Everything

Using this post to think-out why I am building a local AI lab on Proxmox before I get into any of the how. The guiding question is simple : after a couple of years using the first wave of recent AI/LLM products — ChatGPT, Gemini, CoPilot, Perplexity — and a year of running against AI build tools and agentic harnesses — Google AI Studio, Vertex AI, Gemini Live, Claude Cowork, Claude Code, Codex, Cursor, hosted Frontier models to do even more work — what is the actual problem a local stack solves for me, and what is it not going to solve?
