Can someone point me to a ELI5 sequence of steps that shows how someone can install and use LLMs locally and in some way, functionally?

Asking for purposes of educating non-technologists.

There are several different ways, but the easiest way in my (clearly biased) opinion is just got to ollama.ai, download it, and start playing around. It works out of the box w/ newer Macs, but there are versions for Linux and Windows in the works.
