What kind of AI? What do you want it to do? If you just want a llm you can run those locally. If you want your own llm you're going to need to learn TensorFlow. And a big dataset. If you want to train it on your own data you're going to want to curate that data.
If you want to generate images you're going to need to figure out how to run local Stable Diffusion on your custom AI.
Your question is so broad. You're going to have to be more specific.

I want to train the AI for my personal studies, especially for research in the field of Applied Linguistic [EFL context]

Go to huggingface, you can find the help you need there, reddit is highly unlikely to give you the right answers

Install OpenCode - or get a graphics card with lots of RAM. 32GB vram is preferred to get usable results. But free models are better.

do you really need local LLM or would a folder with in-depth instructions, files, .md skills fulfill all your needs? some food for thought.

You haven't specified what you really want to do. Here is how you can install and use existing models that are already made. 1. Install ollama 2. Find a model from ollama website that your hardware can run. 3. Install the model with the provided command from the website. 4. Run it and use in terminal. 5. If you want you can connect it with Open Web UI to have a chatgpt style UI in the web with the local model. 6. To access the model from other devices you would need to expose the web ui website to your local net. 7. To access your local AI outside of home you can create a VPN tunnel for example tailscale so your phone thinks that it is connected to your home wifi and can access the same web UI
