It provides a user-friendly way to manage, deploy, and integrate LLMs, offering greater control, privacy, and customization compared to traditional cloud-based solutions. | Ollama is a tool that allows users to run large language models (LLMs) directly on their own computers, making powerful AI technology accessible without relying on cloud services.
