Will 24-32 GB GPUs age surprisingly well for local LLMs closing the gap to Cloud Models, or will 96GB+VRAM become essential (and even more expensive)?

The recent developments around Strata, Infernix, Project Maya, DFlash 2, etc. have made me rethink what the future of local LLM hardware might look like. Until recently, running a 500B+ MoE model on a consumer GPU seemed more like a cool experiment than something genuinely useful. But now we're see…
