Is anyone self-hosting their own AI? (lemmy.zip)

Does anyone run their own AI service?

If so,

Which one?

What hardware?

Do you have a way to access it from outside or from a phone?

And, if you're open to sharing, what do you do with it?

I know AI-enabling hardware is insanely expensive right now, but some of the smaller (<32GB) more efficient models (think deepseek- or qwen-based) don't absolutely need specialized hardware to run and perform well enough for many purposes.

I am so aware of the absolutely abysmal privacy practices of basically all AI companies that I'm not comfortable using them to help me with web searches and the such, because there's no way that all this information won't be going into a profile. This makes me want to have my own "helper" service.

Hardware:

2 x ASUS GX10 128GB(each)

2 x Mac Mini M4 Pro 24GB(each)

The GX10s are clustered and run DeepSeek-V4-Flash-0731-Abliterated. The M4 Pros run various utility LLMs such as Qwen 3.8

Software:

OpenWebUI

Hermes Agent

LiteLLM

Llama.cpp

vLLM

StoryBinder - custom web app that I use for story/script writing when in the mood

LASM - Local AI Stack Manger - custom web interface to manage pretty much all aspects of my local stack. Agents run on the 4 nodes as well as my NAS(Download GGUF/HF snapshots once and copy out to the nodes)

Have yet to connect my Home Assistant into the stack.

For mobile access I use Conduit https://github.com/cogwheel0/conduit
