Zed + Gemma-4 12B & Qwen-3.6: HOW IS THIS POSSIBLE?! THIS IS CRAZY!

From the creator

This video is sponsored by Zed. Visit Zed: https://zed.dev/ In this video, I'll be showing you how to use local AI models inside Zed with LM Studio, Ollama, and llama.cpp, so you can run coding assistants directly on your own machine without relying only on cloud AI providers. -- Key Takeaways: 🚀 Zed now supports local AI model providers like LM Studio, Ollama, and llama.cpp directly inside the editor. 🔒 Local models let you use AI coding features without sending your code to cloud APIs. 🧠 LM Studio is the easiest option for beginners because it provides a simple graphical interface for downloading and running models. 💻 Ollama is a great terminal-based option for running local coding models like Qwen Coder and other open-source models. ⚙️ llama.cpp support gives advanced users more control over running and connecting local models. 🛠️ Local models work well for code explanations, small refactors, boilerplate generation, and privacy-focused workflows. 👍 Zed lets you switch between local models and stronger cloud models, giving you flexibility depending on the task.
