The update also integrates MLX to accelerate model inference on Apple Silicon. The pre-release does not yet support the `laguna-xs.2` and `llama3.2-vision` models.", "body_md": "# v0.30.0\n\nPre-release\nPre-release\n\n[github-actions](/apps/github-actions)released this\n\n·\n\n[2 commits](/ollama/ollama/compare/v0.30.0-rc23...main)to main since this releaseThis version of Ollama will change the architecture to directly support llama.cpp instead of building on top of GGML, and allows for compatibility with GGUF file format.
