AI on a 2020 iMac (Part 1) – Loading the Software

March 26, 2025iMac,Mac

A 2020 iMac uses an AMD GPU that is not supported. Can you still run AI locally?
I already ran ollama on a 2012/2013 iMac in OSX in another video, but it is limited by the OS hardware compatibility. Using another OS opens the possibility of external GPUs. But first we need to set up the initial environment. That is what this video is for.
