so now we managed to download and have private internet on our own laptop., without actually connecting to to internet we can use internet. only thing is it will get older as Time passes. or you download the new model.

Thank you so much on this Ollama IMO is the best container to run all this LLms this video has replaced my OpenAI Assistant workflow !!!

This is also a brilliant example of someone has a website you could run this service to scrap data of the people visiting your site via email !
