    Why would they call the open version ‘openllama’? Isn’t llama that ai model?

    Edit: Thanks for the downvotes people, I’m sorry for not knowing a meme in a language that’s not my native from before I was born

        Because it has ‘llm’ in it? Makes way more sense than a music player formerly known as Winamp

        Edit: it seems the company that owns it rebranded itself to llama last year. Still think it’s a stupid choice since nobody knows their name and everybody knows Winamp. ‘freeamp’ would be the logical choice

            Not always, since the Llama MP3 that came preloaded was introduced somewhere in 1.xx, yet that’s still long enough (from 1998 to 2011 or so).
