Why I run my Hermes AI Agent locally instead of on a VPS

Description

Security is the top priority when building an autonomous AI system. Running an agent locally on hardware like a Mac Studio avoids the common vulnerabilities associated with cloud-hosted virtual private servers. This approach keeps the core operating system isolated while still leveraging powerful cloud-based APIs for research, voice activation, and memory management via Obsidian vaults. It represents a shift toward more secure, personal AI infrastructure. #HermesAI #LocalAI #CyberSecurity #Obsidian #TechTips
