v0.16.2
Run Claude with web search locally, plus a new privacy switch for sensitive data.
Deep Dive
Ollama's latest update v0.16.2 enables web search functionality for Claude models when using the `:cloud` tag. It introduces a new privacy setting to easily disable all cloud models, ensuring sensitive data never leaves your computer via the app toggle or the `OLLAMA_NO_CLOUD=1` environment variable. The release also fixes PowerShell rendering issues and resolves bugs with experimental image generation models from the previous two versions.
Why It Matters
This gives developers a powerful, private local AI workstation by combining web-augmented Claude with guaranteed data isolation.
