I Gave My Local LLM Control of My PC - From Anywhe
What if your local LLM could do more than just chat? In this video, I demonstrate MaiaChat — an AI agent platform I’ve been building that lets you connect to locally running AI models and use them from almost anywhere through a web browser. I connect a local 27B model through LM Studio to MaiaChat and ask it to perform a real task on my computer: create a new folder on my desktop and generate files inside it. The model isn’t running in the cloud — it is running locally on my own hardware, while MaiaChat provides the interface, agent capabilities and controlled access to tools and files. With MaiaChat, the goal is to let you use platforms such as: • LM Studio • Ollama • MLX • Other local and remote LLM providers …and turn those models into useful AI agents rather than simple chatbots. You can access MaiaChat through a browser from another computer or device while your local AI continues running on your own machine. MaiaChat also allows you to create specialised AI agents, give them tools and permissions, and use them to perform real tasks — including working with files and interacting with connected computers. The idea is similar in some ways to projects such as Hermes Agent and OpenClaw, but MaiaChat is being developed as a complete multi-agent AI workspace with remote access, local model support and practical computer automation. 🌐 MaiaChat: https://maiachat.com In this demonstration: → Local LLM running on my computer → LM Studio connected to MaiaChat → MaiaChat accessed through the browser → AI agent given a task → Folder automatically created on the desktop → Files automatically created inside the folder Local AI is becoming much more interesting when models can actually use tools and perform tasks rather than simply generate text.
