If you’ve read my blog enough lately, you know I’m crazy about Ollama. It’s super easy and powerful. In fact, most people I know who play with Generative AI use it. Equally cool is the Open WebUI. You can attach it to Ollama (and other things) to work with large language models with an excellent, clean user interface. You can set up a nice little service right on your desktop, or, like in my case, put together a dedicated server for private development that doesn’t rack up API fees.
