An M4 Max MacBook Pro (48–128 GB) runs Viking 13B, Qwen 3.5 27B and Gemma 4 smoothly. The full personal AI fits in your bag and travels with you offline.

48–128 GBMobileOffline

For most leaders and entrepreneurs, a MacBook Pro is the best balance of power, mobility and quiet. The M4 generation made it genuinely usable as a personal AI platform for the first time.

Which models on a MacBook?

48 GB: Viking 13B, Qwen 3.5 14B, Gemma 4, Mistral Small 4. 64–128 GB: Viking 33B (Q4), Qwen 3.5 27B, quantised DeepSeek V3.2. For Finnish-language tasks, Viking and Poro are best.

When do you need a workstation?

If you do heavy fine-tuning, process thousands of hours of audio/video, or run 200B+ parameter models, a laptop isn't enough. Then a Mac Studio, Framework Desktop or DGX Spark is the natural next step.

Frequently asked

Can I sync a MacBook and a Mac Studio?
