Most would assume the AI thingy does its thing on the local computer.

good thing nvidia having a massive market cap isn't a big news item, it's worth noting that nobody is talking about all the hardware that microsoft and google are building, surely nobody will talk about the fact that nvidia is backordered for years on hardware.

It's even better that modern consumer grade CPUs aren't marketing for the NPU bits they have.
