Automated excerpt
Running a local open-weights model has no per-token charges or usage limits. The biggest advantage of running a local AI model is privacy. I used Copilot to help me set up the working environment initially, using the open-source llama.cpp inference runtime, the open-weights Qwen3.8-27B large language model, and a coding harness called Cline, running as an extension in Visual Studio Code.
