You can run ComfyUI and AnimateDiff on your PC. If you haven't checked them out, please do.

And there are other angles to consider. Apple, for one, is expressly interested in not becoming a thin client to cloud AI. They're baking a lot of inference power into their chips. If the creative class don't need their devices, that doesn't bode well for them...

Running local models isn't the same as being able to train them from scratch yourself on a corpus of your own choosing.

There are so many ways to do exactly this too!

FakeYou, CivitAi, WeightsGg, Comflowy, ... -- there are tons of vibrant communities to teach you everything you need to know. The tools are open source, free to use, and accessible.

This isn't hard at all once you dive in.
