On: A look at the early impact of Meta Llama 3

[hiyer]

I've been using Llama 3 8B locally with Ollama since it was launched mostly for coding and other technical work. It's really great - I don't miss ChatGPT at all. Admittedly I didn't have the pro subscription, but Llama 3 is as good as the free version if not better.

I wish I was having such results. GPT seems like the only option up to date / looks up docs.

do you use the command line with ollama? I find formatting prompts a pain there.

I usually use the LLM CLI(1) or the Raycast Ollama extension (2). The first one works well enough for when I have to paste multiple lines.
