5 ways I'm using local AI to make the most of my old PC hardware

If you have an old computer (even a laptop) sitting around doing nothing, you could put it to use for local AI instead. I have two old PCs running various AI tasks all the time: one old HP laptop and a retired gaming PC with a Ryzen 1600X, 24GB of VRAM, and an RTX 3060.
