Open-Weight AI Agents Now Run on a Single GPU

A new wave of open-weight AI agents can now run entirely on a single consumer-grade GPU, lowering the barrier to experimenting with agentic AI outside of hyperscaler infrastructure. For developers, it means agent prototyping and fine-tuning workflows that used to require a cluster can now start on a single well-specced workstation.
