I used to love to make silly websites or apps with new technologies. Been doing it since flash. I have a pretty decent hit rate! It’s not unusually to get half a million or so people try one of them.

But with AI that model is just totally broken because the running cost is so high.

If I have half a million people come play my silly AI game that I have no wish to monetise - I am gonna be POOR very fast.

Log in with [insert ai vendor here] is something I’ve been hoping would happen for a while.

On-device models seems like a good approach to this. Especially if it's silly projects they probably don't need the latest and greatest expensive models.

Firebase recently launch some experimental on-device APIs. https://firebase.blog/posts/2025/06/hybrid-inference-firebas...
