Hey HN,
Excited to share Mobile Tethering, our latest feature release on Faraday.dev. It lets you run local LLMs on your Mac/Windows Computer (Linux soon) and seamlessly use them to chat with AI on mobile. Since all the heavy workloads run directly on your computer (instead of on an expensive cloud server), it's 100% free to use, and your chat data is never stored or logged in the cloud.
I'm one of the founders of Faraday.dev, so would love to hear any ideas you have on what we should build next!

PS: For those who've never used Faraday – it's a zero-config desktop app for creating AI characters (custom chatbots) powered by locally running LLMs. Faraday can run on CPU with only 8GB of RAM via llama.cpp by @ggerganov, and the app will automatically use your GPU to speed things up. We also have a community-driven Character Hub, text-to-speech, lorebooks, and more.
