I’ve spent the past few weeks thinking about how Apple built up the best deal in enterprise AI. Two things happened that make me think Apple knew that all along (or maybe they didn’t and got lucky). Meta released its most capable open-weight model yet and optimized it to run on a Mac Studio. I also spent time with Osaurus, an app that runs a usable local AI model on something as small as a 16 GB Apple silicon laptop without needing a network connection. They even have two models that will run on 8 GB.

The Xserve has been dead since 2011, but its spiritual successor sits on a desk rather than in a rack.
