## Install GPT4All Python

`gpt4all` gives you access to LLMs with our Python client around [`llama.cpp`](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp) implementations. 

Nomic contributes to open source software like [`llama.cpp`](https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp) to make LLMs accessible and efficient **for all**.

```bash
pip install gpt4all
```

```python
from gpt4all import GPT4All
model = GPT4All("Meta-Llama-3-8B-Instruct.Q4_0.gguf") # downloads / loads a 4.66GB LLM
with model.chat_session():
    print(model.generate("How can I run LLMs efficiently on my laptop?", max_tokens=1024))
```
