Docker Model Runner - Run AI Models Locally
Docker announced AI Model Runner for Docker Desktop. This feature is in preview for Docker Early Adopters. It could be a game-changer for AI developers.
The details
- Docker Model Runner is an experimental feature in Docker Desktop v4.40+. It allows you to run large language models (LLMs) locally on your computer.
- It supports native GPU acceleration for Apple Silicon and NVIDIA GPUs. Yes, you heard right. The models run locally on your computer, not in a Docker container.
- It’s like Ollama but works with the Docker API. With the Docker Model Runner CLI, you can download, run, and delete models, similar to Docker containers. In addition, AI models are available via Docker Hub.
Our thoughts
We use Docker regularly and are excited about this announcement. It’s great that models can run directly on the computer, enabling the use of GPU acceleration.
If you’ve wished to run AI models on your computer like Docker containers, then this feature is exactly that. We believe this feature will make Docker even more popular, and we will definitely use it.
