Avoid the privacy issues of sending prompts to cloud based large
language models (LLMs like ChatGPT) by installing and managing a local
instance of Ollama, an open source downloadable LLM and API. We’ll set
up a chatbot and practice directly querying the LLM for generative
outputs, text clustering, and classification.
After this workshop, learners will be able to:
- Describe control, customization, and data privacy issues of cloud-based AI systems
- Install Ollama in your local environment
- Deploy and customize a chatbot
- Conduct text clustering and classification on a corpus.
Prerequisites: All members of the UC community are welcome to attend. This workshop
is not an introduction to programming; learners should have basic
fluency in Python if they would like to code along.
