Run custom LLMs privately on your system—Use ChatGPT-like UI—Hands-on projects—No cloud or extra costs required

Are you concerned about data privacy and the high costs associated with using Large Language Models (LLMs)?

If so, this course is the perfect fit for you. “Mastering Ollama: Build Private LLM Applications with Python” empowers you to run powerful AI models directly on your own system, ensuring complete data privacy and eliminating the need for expensive cloud services.

By learning to deploy and customize local LLMs with Ollama, you’ll maintain full control over your data and applications while avoiding the ongoing expenses and potential risks of cloud-based solutions.

This hands-on course will take you from beginner to expert in using Ollama, a platform designed for running local LLM models. You’ll learn how to set up and customize models, create a ChatGPT-like interface, and build private applications using Python—all from the comfort of your system.

Why is this course important?

In a world where data privacy is growing, running LLMs locally ensures your data stays on your machine. This enhances data security and allows you to customize models for specialized tasks without external dependencies or additional costs.

You’ll engage in practical activities like building custom models, developing RAG applications that retrieve and respond to user queries based on your data, and creating interactive interfaces.

Each section has real-world applications to give you the experience and confidence to build your local LLM solutions.

What you’ll learn

  • Install and configure Ollama on your local system to run large language models privately.
  • Customize LLM models to suit specific needs using Ollama’s options and command-line tools.
  • Execute all terminal commands necessary to control, monitor, and troubleshoot Ollama models.
  • Set up and manage a ChatGPT-like interface, allowing you to interact with models locally.
  • Utilize different model types—including text, vision, and code-generating models—for various applications.
  • Create custom LLM models from a Modelfile file and integrate them into your applications.
  • Build Python applications that interface with Ollama models using its native library and OpenAI API compatibility.
  • Develop Retrieval-Augmented Generation (RAG) applications by integrating Ollama models with LangChain.
  • Implement tools and function calling to enhance model interactions for advanced workflows.
  • Set up a user-friendly UI frontend to allow users to interface and chat with different Ollama models.
