Nvidia has released Personal AI Router (PAIR), a free open-source tool that finds compatible computers on a home network and links them together to run local AI inference tasks through apps like Ollama and LM Studio. It supports Nvidia RTX 20-series and newer GPUs, RTX Pro and DGX Spark systems, plus Apple M4 chips or later, and only taps machines when they're idle so it doesn't interfere with other use.
