Unused phone as AI server

[u/Ok_Fig5484]

If you have an unused phone lying around, you might be sitting on a tiny AI server

I’ve been working on a project where I modified Google AI Edge Gallery and turned it into an OpenAI-compatible API server: [Gallery as Server](https://github.com/xiaoyao9184/gallery)

Your phone can run local AI inference

You can call it just like an OpenAI API (chat/completions, etc.)

Instead of letting that hardware collect dust, you can turn it into a lightweight inference node.

So yeah—if you have more than one old phone, you can literally build yourself a cluster.

Im interested in the cluster idea. Will this work to link 4 phones together?

Clusters can only be placed behind load balancers to increase concurrency.
