A user proposed a local setup for AI Computer Use using a Linux machine with dual RTX 4090s:
- Architecture: One GPU runs the Qwen model (inferred large parameter model) for reasoning, while the other handles a vision/interaction model like GUI-Owl-1.5.
- Context: The inquiry compares this local rig against using the ChatGPT Mac app with the Computer Use plugin and Sol.
- Goal: To achieve a capable local environment for security tasks and automation without relying on cloud APIs.
