Company email automation kept off the cloud for legal reasons

This company believes uploading user data to a cloud model would be illegal for their use case, so email and user-text automation runs on a Gemma 4 build on a single Radeon Pro AI R9700.

For company automation — handling emails and user texts — this person runs Gemma 4 on a Radeon Pro AI R9700 with 32GB of VRAM, driven partly by a belief that uploading user data to a cloud model would actually be illegal for what they're doing, and partly for operational independence: nobody outside the company can silently change the model's behavior or take the service down by having their own issues. They separately keep an RTX 6000 Pro and an M4 Max MacBook Pro for coding, alongside a paid Claude Max plan for comparison.
