@rick-github commented on GitHub (Dec 3, 2024):

With GPUs, you can select the device by setting CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES. If you want to load a model on CPU and avoid GPU, set num_gpu to zero (https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/6950#issuecomment-2373663650). If you want all models to avoid GPU, set OLLAMA_LLM_LIBRARY=cpu.
