The Future of Coding: Local AI with Ollama & Python

Learn how to run AI models locally on your laptop using Python, Ollama, and VS Code to generate code. This beginner-friendly tutorial walks you through setting up Python, creating a virtual environment, installing Jupyter Notebook, and configuring Ollama to pull and run models like CodeLlama 7B Instruct. Whether you’re new to AI development or an experienced developer exploring locally hosted LLMs, this guide will help you get started quickly and confidently.

We’ll cover:
✅ Installing Python and pip
✅ Creating and activating a virtual environment
✅ Setting up Jupyter Notebook in VS Code
✅ Installing Ollama and pulling the CodeLlama 7B Instruct model
✅ Writing your first Python program that talks to a local LLM
✅ Debugging common errors and fixing environment setup issues

By the end, you’ll have your own AI model running locally — no cloud GPUs, no expensive APIs, just your laptop powering real AI development.

If you want to stay ahead as AI reshapes software engineering, this is your chance to learn the foundations of applied AI development with Python, Ollama, and VS Code.
