-  <Accordion title="Local NVIDIA NIM Deployed using WSL2">
-    
-    NVIDIA NIM enables you to run powerful LLMs locally on your Windows machine using WSL2 (Windows Subsystem for Linux). 
-    This approach allows you to leverage your NVIDIA GPU for private, secure, and cost-effective AI inference without relying on cloud services. 
-    Perfect for development, testing, or production scenarios where data privacy or offline capabilities are required.
-    
-    Here is a step-by-step guide to setting up a local NVIDIA NIM model:
-    
-    1. Follow installation instructions from [NVIDIA Website](https://docs.nvidia.com/nim/wsl2/latest/getting-started.html)
-
-    2. Install the local model. For Llama 3.1-8b follow [instructions](https://build.nvidia.com/meta/llama-3_1-8b-instruct/deploy)
-
-    3. Configure your crewai local models:
-  
-    ```python Code
-    from crewai.llm import LLM
-
-    local_nvidia_nim_llm = LLM(
-        model="openai/meta/llama-3.1-8b-instruct", # it's an openai-api compatible model
-        base_url="http://localhost:8000/v1",
-        api_key="<your_api_key|any text if you have not configured it>", # api_key is required, but you can use any text
-    )
-
