OpenJarvis: a local-first personal AI is now available to run with Ollama
What changed
OpenJarvis: a local-first personal AI is now available to run with Ollama May 28, 2026 OpenJarvis is an open-source framework for building personal AI agents that run on your own hardware. It’s built by Stanford’s Hazy Research and Scaling Intelligence labs, as part of their “Intelligence Per Watt” research into efficient local AI. Local models can already handle most day-to-day chat and reasoning, yet most personal AI still sends every request to the cloud.
Why it matters
A concrete addition to Practical AI: Tools, Models & Frameworks: it changes what's available to builders today rather than being general commentary.
