ポイント
- Obsidian organizes linked notes using Markdown and was free for personal use at the time of the video.
- LM Studio can run a downloaded model and expose a local server to a compatible Obsidian plugin.
- The plugin's endpoint and other settings depend on the plugin and software versions; local inference alone does not guarantee every integration or sync service stays offline.
- NVIDIA partnered with Berman on the video; local model performance depends on the model and hardware.

Obsidian and local models
Berman introduces the Markdown note-taking app and the idea of connecting its AI plugins to LM Studio.
Obsidian is a cross-platform note-taking app that uses Markdown to connect your ideas and notes. At the time of this video, it was free for personal use. You can also connect compatible AI plugins to a local language model through LM Studio.
Install and connect
He describes starting a local model server and configuring an Obsidian community plugin. The short ends with an NVIDIA partnership disclosure.
To set it up, download Obsidian and LM Studio, then download a model that fits your computer. In the LM Studio developer tab, start a server. These are the steps shown in 2024; interfaces and settings can change.
Open Obsidian, go to Settings, then Community plugins, and click Browse. Install an AI plugin that supports a local OpenAI-compatible endpoint, and enter the server URL in its settings. The accompanying [NVIDIA guide](https://blogs.nvidia.com/blog/ai-decoded-obsidian/) discusses Text Generator and Smart Connections; the precise URL and other settings depend on the plugin. Check its instructions and your sync settings if keeping data local matters to you.
Berman says local models can run quickly on NVIDIA RTX AI PCs; actual speed depends on the model and hardware, and an RTX GPU is not a universal requirement for local inference. He points readers to the AI Decoded blog and thanks NVIDIA for partnering on the video.
