LM Studio is an easy to use desktop app for experimenting with local and open-source Large Language Models (LLMs). The LM Studio cross platform desktop app allows you to download and run any ggml-compatible model from Hugging Face, and provides a simple yet powerful model configuration and inferencing UI. The app leverages your GPU when possible.
