Here’s what Magic Pointer processes on your Googlebook — and what goes online

Users are exploring the feasibility of running local LLMs on Mac, focusing on hardware compatibility and cost-effectiveness. Simultaneously, Magic Pointer on Googlebook manages screen recognition locally to ensure privacy.
