Frequently asked questions

Can you use AI without an internet connection?

Yes, if the application and model are already installed on your device. You usually need internet access at the start to download the app, model weights, and updates. After that, local chat and generation can work offline.

Which offline AI tool is best for beginners?

For a first local setup, LM Studio, Jan, GPT4All, or Msty Studio are usually the easiest options. They offer desktop interfaces, model selection, and less manual configuration than server-based solutions.

What should I choose for running AI locally through an API?

For API use, people often choose Ollama or LocalAI. Ollama is easier to get started with and works well for developers, while LocalAI is useful when you need an OpenAI-compatible backend and more control over a self-hosted stack.

Do you need a GPU for a local AI model?

Not always. Smaller LLMs can run on a CPU, but performance will be slower. For larger models and image generation, a modern GPU or Apple Silicon with enough memory is preferable.

Which local AI tool is suitable for working with documents?

GPT4All and AnythingLLM are convenient for chatting with local files. LM Studio also supports working with documents offline. For a team-oriented self-hosted option, Open WebUI is worth considering.

Can you generate images without internet?

Yes. DiffusionBee is a simpler option for macOS, while ComfyUI and other interfaces built around Stable Diffusion offer more advanced configuration. As with text models, you need to download the models and dependencies first.
