ollama · x · 2026-11-12
Ollama and FriendliAI hosted a developer meetup in Seoul last week with roughly 150 attendees out of 650+ registrations. CEO jmorgan discussed the open model ecosystem and where it's headed, covering a "start local, scale to cloud while staying private" path: run smaller models free on your own hardware with Ollama, scale to larger models via pay-as-you-go Ollama Cloud, with prompts/responses not logged and data never used for training.
