Perplexity Runs On-Device AI Workflows on Mac
AI Agents Move From the Cloud to the Desktop Generative AI is shifting from cloud Q&A toward agent workflows that operate desktop software. Power users now ask how to balance convenience, API spending, and personal privacy. Perplexity has announced its answer. Mac users can now run AI workflows entirely on the device. The catch is memory: the Mac needs at least 36GB.

IA générative sur smartphone : ce que le traitement local change vraiment pour vos données
Le traitement local n'existe jamais seul : une partie du calcul reste sur l'appareil, une autre part vers des serveurs, et c'est le fabricant qui trace la frontière. Ce qui change pour vos données : requêtes supprimées après traitement, accès opérateur empêché, moins de copies en circulation - mais la requête quitte quand même le téléphone. Le test du mode avion reste vérifiable sans faire confiance à personne.
