Ollama – v0.18.2-rc0
🚀 Ollama v0.18.2-rc0 is out — and it’s bringing live web search!
This release candidate (not quite stable yet, but very promising) adds support for web search integration via the `openclaw` tool — likely enabling models to pull in real-time info from the web during inference. 🌐🔍
🔹 New Tool Registered: `openclaw` is now available as a callable tool — think of it like giving your local LLM a live browser.
🔹 Tool-Calling Boost: Aligns with the growing trend of models (like Llama 3.1) supporting function/tool calling — making Ollama even more dynamic and up-to-date.
🔹 Use Cases? Think: real-time Q&A, research assistants, news-aware chatbots — all running locally (or on your own server).
⚠️ Note: This is an `rc0`, so things may shift before the final `v0.18.2` lands — but it’s a huge step toward truly intelligent, always-current local AI.
Curious about how `openclaw` works? Or want to test it out? Let’s dive in! 🧪💡
