Build a Local AI App in 10 min with Docker (Zero Cloud Fees)

From the creator

Hey everyone! In this tutorial, I'm showing you how to run large language models (LLMs) on your local machine using Docker. We'll talk about the benefits, including saving on inference costs and having total control over your models. I'll guide you step-by-step on installing Docker Desktop, enabling necessary features, and downloading models. I'll also demonstrate how to set up a basic app that interacts with Docker just like an API from OpenAI or Google. This is perfect for anyone looking to develop AI-powered apps locally.
