# AI Models

The <Icon icon="brain-circuit" iconType="light" /> **AI Models** page displays all the models that you've downloaded from the **Model Catalog** or are currently downloading in a table format. Different <Tooltip tip="Quantization reduces a model's parameter precision to improve memory efficiency or accuracy. It's like condensing a 300-page manual to 50 pages of essential information.">quantization</Tooltip> files for the same model appear on separate rows in the table.

From the **Models** table, you can start a new chat with a model, launch an API server, manage downloads, and delete a model. Selecting a model lets you view its details.

<Tip>
  Prefer working on the command line? Use the [Anaconda AI CLI](/docs/cli-reference/anaconda-ai/getting-started) to manage your models.

## Viewing model details

Select a model to display detailed information such as supported languages, parameter count, context window size, and more. The details page also includes links to related documentation, license information, and acceptable use policies.

From the details page, you can also click <Icon icon="message" iconType="light" /> **Try Model** to start a new chat with the model or click <Icon icon="server" iconType="regular" /> **Start Server** to create a new API server with the model and quantization level pre-loaded.

To download a different quantization for the model, use the **Quantization** dropdown field to select the quantization level, then click <Icon icon="arrow-down-to-line" iconType="light" /> **Download**.

## Managing downloads

From the **Models** table, you can <Icon icon="pause" iconType="light" /> **pause**, <Icon icon="play" iconType="light" /> **play**, or <Icon icon="ban" iconType="light" /> **cancel** a downloading model.

## Deleting models

To delete a model that you have downloaded, click <Icon icon="ellipsis-vertical" iconType="regular" /> **Actions**, then select <Icon icon="trash-can" iconType="light" /> **Delete**.

<Note>
  Models cannot be deleted while they're loaded into the API server. On the <Icon icon="server" iconType="regular" /> **Model Servers** page, click <Icon icon="stop" iconType="light" /> **Stop Server** to unload a model.
