Well yes, it's a point of GPT4All to run on the CPU, so anyone can use it. It's the first thing you see on the homepage, too:

A free-to-use, locally running, privacy-aware chatbot. No GPU or internet required.

There already are some other issues on the topic, e.g. #463, #487, and it looks like some work is being done to optionally support it: #746

That's not true in my case. Gpt4all doesn't use my cpu at all but loads igpu up to 100%. How can i fix that?

Unless you've done a custom build and enabled the GPU somehow, I seriously doubt that. But yes, it'll load it up to 100%, because it takes a lot of resources to run, even for what seems like simple things. It's not simple.

I didn't make any custom builds. I am an ordinary PC user without any knowledge in such complicated things. How can i turn off the igpu's usage and turn on cpu's usage?

If you're just using the downloader for the chat application, then it only runs on the CPU. I don't understand what you're seeing.

You are seeing oneAPI run.
