Run LLMs and AI models locally on your M1/M2/M3/M4 Mac with Ollama, LM Studio, and more.
Apple Silicon Macs are ideal for running AI models locally. The unified memory architecture allows models to access system RAM directly, enabling you to run larger models than traditional GPUs would allow.
Recommended setup: Use Ollama for easy model management, or LM Studio for a GUI experience. With 32GB+ RAM, you can run 70B parameter models. MLX, Apple's machine learning framework, provides optimized performance specifically for Apple Silicon.
