Didn't realise you could do it locally, just checked online and there's several options. So why are these fuckers building huge, resource-greedy data centres. . ?
Because they want to do a lot of it and faster than a home pc could so they can offer it as a service.
What you can do locally is slower and with much smaller models.
So they can charge you to do it on your phone...
Real answer: Because they want to own the world.
