Don’t pay for an AI coding assistant until you’ve tried running one locally

Models aren’t good enough to work on their own, especially with all the nuance in bigger projects. Even while avoiding usage caps on Antigravity, you still need to give it your whole project for it to work. Basically, it feels like the only way to get a reliable AI agent for programming is through a paid extension. However, instead of paying someone else, you should run your own AI.
