271·8 days agoThe trick is to tell them you’ve been using it more than they have and that it’s not as good as chatGPT for task A, but that for task B claude does okay 25% of the time so we’ll need to 4x the timeline in order to get a good claude output based on that expected value.
But not as good as your personal local LLM that you’ve been training on company data. No one else can use it because it’s illegal to clone. (your personal local LLM is your brain)

If you come from Windows or Mac and want to keep similar UI familiarity and ease of use then ZorinOS is pretty good. A friend of mine migrated away from Windows and installed Zorin OS core, choosing nvidia drivers during installation. They are very pleased with the experience so far.
