Running Local Models: From Desktop to Data Center

You can run your first local model in about ten seconds. That is the easy part. The harder questions start immediately. How do you keep it private? How do you make it secure? How do you power an agent? What changes when one agent becomes ten, then a swarm? Austin walks through the full path from a first model on your laptop to a working inference cluster on hardware you control. Along the way, he covers the foundations of inference engineering: model choice, serving, runtimes, hardware, and the systems that let many agents run together. Come as a beginner or an experienced builder. Leave with a clear map of what to build next.
