At present, it is not possible to train an LLM on a personal computer.
The smaller LLMs that can be installed on PCs are pre-trained, though
there is a growing list of available small LLMs with different types
of training.
Their advantage is that no personal data is sent to Google, Meta, Amazon, etc.
Your interaction with these small LLMs will be kept private.

As Gadersd says, hopefully there will be progress to enable LLMs to be
trained on PCs, but that is awaiting design breakthroughs.
