Ollama in Action - Run Private, Multimodal AI on Your Own Machine: Install Local LLMs, Call Them from Python, and Build a Multimodal Image App with Ollama ... Coding - Build Real Software with AI)

Run powerful AI models privately on your own machine with Ollama: no cloud, no API bills, no limits.Local LLMs used to be painful to set up. Ollama makes them simple. In this hands-on guide you'll install Ollama, run and manage models from the command line, call them from Python, and build a real multimodal application that reads images and writes structured data, all running entirely on your own hardware.What you'll build and learn:Understand what local LLMs are and the real trade-offs of running them yourselfInstall Ollama on macOS, Windows, or WSL and verify it worksUse the core commands to pull, run, list, switch, and delete modelsCall Ollama from Python and send images to a multimodal modelBuild a stateful chatbot that remembers the conversationCreate a project that catalogs a folder of images into a CSV with a local LLMChoose the right model for your hardware and performance needsWho this book is for:Python users curious about local AI who want privacy, lower cost, and the freedom to experiment. You don't need prior experience building AI apps.Why this book works:This is a clear, step-by-step guide from the team at Zenva, whose courses have taught millions of people to code.
