How to Install LocalAI on Ubuntu 24.04

LocalAI is an open-source AI engine that lets you run any model — LLMs, vision, voice, image, and video — on any hardware without requiring a GPU. It uses a small, composable core where each backend wraps a best-in-class engine in its own OCI image. It provides drop-in API compatibility with OpenAI, Anthropic, and ElevenLabs, supports multi-user auth/quotas, and includes built-in AI agents with tool use, RAG, and MCP.
