Learn how to use Docker model runner with N8N instead of Ollama for running free open source AI models locally. This tutorial shows you how to set up Docker Desktop, download models like GPT OSS, and integrate them with your N8N workflows using GPU acceleration. You'll discover how to configure the OpenAI-compatible API, set up embedding models for vector databases, and create a complete AI agent setup with Postgres database integration for knowledge base queries.
