Tether CEO Paolo Ardoino shared a demo of QVAC, the company’s new AI assistant designed to run entirely on users’ own devices, not in the cloud. QVAC utilizes the Model Context Protocol (MCP) to support multiple skills and can complete tasks such as creating assignments in apps, all through local inference and reasoning, even on a modest laptop GPU. The design emphasizes privacy by keeping data on the device, and Tether plans to release QVAC as an open-source project for developers soon.
