LocalAI on a Mac
Self-hosted, OpenAI-compatible inference server · AI / LLMs
LocalAI is a free, drop-in replacement for the OpenAI API that runs LLMs, embeddings, image and audio models on your own CPU/GPU; no cloud, no key. Run it via Docker or the binary; it serves an OpenAI-compatible API (default :8080). Add it in AI Models as a network endpoint to drive it from the assistant.
