FAQPage Schema

How do I run local LLMs offline without relying on cloud services?▼

You can run local LLMs offline by connecting a CLI tool to a local Ollama server. This allows on-device text generation and embeddings without cloud dependencies.

How do I generate text and manage models using a local Ollama instance?▼

Install Ollama locally and connect with the CLI. Use commands like generate_completion or generate_embeddings to interact with models, and manage them by listing, pulling, or deleting directly.

Can I use this approach for chat interactions with history on edge devices?▼

Yes, connecting to a local Ollama instance supports chat-style interactions with history. It is applicable for developing offline AI features on development workstations or edge deployments.

What do I need to set up before running local text generation with Ollama?▼

Running local text generation requires a running Ollama instance and the robomotion install ollama workflow. You must set up these components before executing local LLM commands.

What are the limitations of using local LLMs compared to cloud services?▼

Using local LLMs requires your own hardware resources and a running local Ollama instance. It avoids cloud dependencies but is limited by your machine's capacity for on-device text generation.
