Models

Before using a model, pull it locally ollama pull:

ollama pull llama3

Default model names

For tooling that relies on default OpenAI model names such as gpt-3.5-turbo, use ollama cp to copy an existing model name to a temporary name:

ollama cp llama3 gpt-3.5-turbo

Afterwards, this new model name can be specified the model field:

curl http://localhost:11434/v1/chat/completions \
    -H "Content-Type: application/json" \
    -d '{
        "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo",
        "messages": [
            {
                "role": "user",
                "content": "Hello!"
            }
        ]
    }'
