Command-line tool for running, creating, and sharing large language models locally using optimized inference.
Why you might care
Ollama lets you run open-source LLMs (Llama, Mistral, etc.) on your own machine without external APIs, keeping data private and avoiding cloud costs. It handles model download, quantization, and GPU acceleration automatically, and provides a simple REST API for integration into workflows or scripts. Useful for developers, researchers, and anyone who wants local, self-hosted AI without cloud dependencies.
