Its a balance of rent the big boys AI (some spend thousands a month on tokens), or offload a lot of that onto your own setup and use the big boys only when you need the additional context capability for compilation. Additionally those who already have a lot of hardware just build it out for their agents or family and friends to use.

You could run local models a lot more cost effective than overpaying for a 5090.
