Use llama cpp. It uses cpu so you don't have to spend $10k just to get a graphics card that meets the minimum requirements. I run it on a shitty 3.0ghz Amd 8300 FX and it runs ok. Most people probably have better computers than that.

Note that gpt4all runs on top of llama cpp and despite gpt4all having a gui, it isn't any easier to use than llamacpp so you might as well use the one with less bloat. Just remember if something isn't working on llamacpp, it's also going to not work in exactly the same way on gpt4all.
