I have great success with local LLM in some of my workflows and automation.

I use it for my line completion and basic functions/asks while developing that I dont want to waste tokens on.

I also use it in automation. I run my own media server with a few dozen people with an automated request system "jellyseerr" that adds content. I have automation that leverages local LLM to look at recent media requests and automatically requests content that is similar to it.
