We're introducing hybrid compute for all users of the Perplexity Mac app. This will allow Computer to orchestrate local models that can run locally on Mac, particularly for agent steps involving sensitive and private files (eg your bloodwork, tax returns, litigation, etc).

PERPLEXITY 🔥: A new Hybrid mode is coming soon on Mac, letting local models handle some subtasks. > Gemma 4 (for 16 GB machines), Qwen3.6, and Perplexity's own model (For 32 GB machines) are currently supported. > "In Hybrid mode, Computer orchestrates in the cloud and delegates suitable subtasks to a model on your Mac." > "Local models run on your Mac's own memory and processor — the more capable your machine, the larger the models it can run." > "Privacy Gate is a small model that runs entirely on your Mac. It inspects anything headed to the cloud for personal or sensitive information — and if it finds any, you decide how to handle it before anything is sent." That would be huge 👀

Today we're announcing that hybrid agentic inference is coming to Perplexity Computer. Computer can split tasks between a local model running on your machine and frontier models in the cloud. This keeps private data on your device and maximizes token efficiency. Coming soon.

Perplexity Computer will soon be able to dynamically split compute power between local models and cloud models! If that would drive Perplexity Computer costs down, it would be huge, since it is one of the top blockers for many at this moment. Soon 👀

You can run local AI models up to 120B without a $10,000 Mac Studio This phone-sized device is your own server for open-source models. 100% local and private. And you can use it to: - Power an agent like OpenClaw 24/7 - Completely replace a chatbot - Literally anything that requires an API It’s called Tiiny, and, once again, you can run the latest open-source models on it. Link below

Run OpenVoice 2 Locally, with 1 Click. I wrote a local-first gradio app AND a 1-click launcher for running OpenVoice 2 on ALL operating systems (Windows, Mac, Linux). This is probably the only implementation that currently works for all platforms and for all languages.

Mac Mini is super nice because you can use native iMessage for talking with OpenClaw. The only problem is that it's very expensive and you need to always have your Mac Mini on to run this setup. So I made a plugin to allow anyone on any computer (either Linux, Windows, or Mac) to be able to have access to iMessage natively. Even better, it has access to all of the reactions, triple dot indicator, etc. Check it out and let me know what you think.

Introducing Magnitude: your actually local agent 100% private and offline. No token costs, no API keys. Open source. Today's agents are local. The model isn't. Every prompt, every file, every secret gets sent straight to Anthropic and OpenAI. Magnitude is built around local models and runs the whole stack itself. The inference engine is part of the agent, so the models run inside it, right on your computer. It lives in your terminal, and setup is one command. Magnitude profiles your hardware and shows you which models fit, with the trade-offs between quality, speed, and memory. Pick one and start working. No painful config or server to babysit. Out of the box, it can use your shell, edit files, and run scripts. Add skills and it can work with Excel, PowerPoint, PDFs or Chrome. Use it for everyday work: - Analyze sensitive data - Manage private notes - Review code and logs - Search and organize files - Build docs or slides npm i -g @magnitudedev/cli GitHub:

Perplexity Computer can now execute price-triggered token swaps for Base users. Computer watches the chart, routes the swap through Base MCP onchain when it hits, then waits for your signature on the tx. Available for all users. Add the Base MCP connector and run the Token Swap Trigger workflow to try it.
