Just to be clear there are two versions. One with nuts for those who want that AI experience, and one without nuts for the anti-ai faction in the group. The n8n ai-starter kit will spin up n8n with AI. I use the plain n8n mainly because I don't have the equipment to run an in-house AI properly or rather effectively, and I don't want to connect to AI exterior of my network. A friend of mine runs the ai-starter kit and does some really impressive stuff with it, but he has all the new toys to properly run it.
2 versions? Nuts vs no nuts?
What do you mean? Your not being clear.
The AI starter kit is a docker stack, not a version or flavour of n8n.
There is n8n with AI and there is n8n without AI. I run the n8n without AI. AI is not required to run n8n. Both versions can be run in Docker.
I've only ever added AI to n8n workflows through ollama nodes/tools and agents and whatnot.
I haven't seen the version where an AI llm is baked in yet.
I did see we have tables now which is handy.
Like I said, I'm self self-hosted tho so, either way, don't have to use it if you don't want. I'd probably recommend anyone just install whichever is easiest unless, it's forcing you to download the llm blobs/models and you don't have the space for it.
