Description

In The Beginner's Guide to Local AI, Steven Mcananey demystifies running powerful AI entirely on your personal computer—no cloud, no subscriptions, no privacy concerns.

Designed for total beginners, this book walks readers step by step through choosing the right hardware, installing free tools, selecting models, and optimizing their setup.

Along the way, readers gain insights into formats like GGUF, toolkits such as Ollama, LM Studio, GPT4All, Llama.cpp, and explore the latest arrivals like AMD's Gaia.

By the end, they'll have a functional local AI—capable of chat, document analysis, or even autonomous agents—running entirely offline and entirely under their control.
