An RTX 5070 Ti runs Llama 3.1 at 50 req/s — replacing $2K/month in API costs. We benchmarked 4 GPUs, compared cloud pricing, and built the exact setup.
We ran the same AI agent on OpenClaw and a custom build for 90 days. Shipping was faster — but the monthly bill, vendor lock-in, and control gaps tell a different story. Full breakdown with actual costs.
I let an autonomous agent run 100 ML experiments while I slept. 7 succeeded. Net result: 25% model improvement. Here's the setup.
Real costs, real tools, no fluff. M-F when I ship, publish, or learn something worth sending.
