LM Studio Bionic: the AI agent for open models

This kind of thing just makes me think Apple will get to a point where they have good enough local models and good enough harnesses for doing things, and most normal people will just use them… Does the LLM become another interface to computing?

Why would I use this over any other harness? I suppose they're wrapping it all up in a nice package for enterprise, especially ones that want to control their LLM usage for cost and data security compared to the cloud frontier models.

I’m worried about the switch in business model here, which is part of the reason I just switched to LM Studio from Ollama.

> use the largest frontier open source models through LM Studio Secure Cloud

It says no data retention or training on your data, but I assume that doesn't hold true for the frontier cloud models you connect to?

I am not sure I get this. It seems on first glance like just another harness ...

A friendly reminder that both LM Studio app and now this new LM Studio Bionic app are closed source.

Since most people are unaware of this fact.
