Perplexity showcased a fully local agent runtime enabled by open-weight models. They adapted the cloud-based Perplexity Computer harness to a local-first version, orchestrated by a local 27B MoE running on NVIDIA DGX Spark. This moves agentic inference to local hardware in a compute-constrained world.
