Perplexity is moving its agent runtime onto users’ own Nvidia hardware.

The launch is a local version of Perplexity Computer called Portable Computer. It supports Qwen3.8-27B and Perplexity’s PPLX 27B on Nvidia DGX Spark and RTX Linux PCs. The pitch is full on-device execution, which removes token-metered cloud usage for those runs. Source: Techmeme’s note.
