I was a bit suspicious of the url but it is also listed on llama.cpp github https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp

Same, but it looks legit enough to me. Here is the git repo for the site with a link back to llama.app: https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.pages

(I still deeply distrust curlpipes in general though.)

I tried to run in on my Arc A770, but all of the binary releases I could find were compiled without OpenVINO support enabled. I tried compiling it myself, but after two days of the compiler running it failed.

Two days sounds like a lot, both llama.cpp and openvino only takes a few minutes to compile on any decent modern cpu.

ty for digging this up!

Anything that suggests curl into bash just plain sketches me out. (edit: I know, this isn't totally rational, it just seems weird to me. We download and trust a lot of software and run code from a bunch of package repositories as a regular activity...).

Git clone llama.cpp and build it, it's not hard.

https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp/blob/master/docs/build...

literally just a few steps for the basics:

git clone https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp

cmake -B build

cmake --build build --config Release

I think I can probably run Gemma 3 12B on my macbook M3 pro with 18GB. The question is, should I do it? This small model is probably not capable of doing a lot or advanced coding or reasoning. What else could it be used for, since it can run locally and privately?
