Base models for fine-tuning and post-training work

"What we did to initially gain some popularity was like Llama was putting out base models. We fine-tuned those into something that we thought would be like something the market would want."

Dylan Rolnick

"We have a whole bunch of Llama and Mistral running and stuff internally and a bunch of OpenAI."

Running local AI models via command line with a local API that apps can connect to

"Ollama is a little more builder oriented or developer oriented. You install it, you run a command like 'ollama run gemma4' and now you have a model running locally with an API your apps could talk to."

More source quotes

Running AI models locally for privacy, cost control, latency, and understanding local vs. cloud architecture

"If you could run these models locally with something like Ollama, LM Studio, you start to understand what can happen on your own machine and what needs the cloud and what needs to touch private docs and what should stay behind the wall."

Greg Isenberg

Running local AI models via command line

"There's two main names to know, Ollama and LM Studio. Ollama is usually the favorite of a lot of my developer friends because it runs from the command line."
