Ollama

New models

• Yi: a high-performing, bilingual model supporting both English and Chinese.

What's Changed

• JSON mode: instruct models to always return valid JSON when calling /api/generate by setting the format parameter to json
• Raw mode: bypass any templating done by Ollama by passing {"raw": true} to /api/generate
• Better error descriptions when downloading and uploading models with ollama pull and ollama push
• Fixed issue where Linux installer would encounter an error when running as the root user
• Improved progress bar design when running ollama pull and ollama push
• Fixed issue where running on a machine with less than 2GB of VRAM would be slow
