I'm confused, is this from Meta? There's no attribution anywhere. Surely releasing an AI tool called llama breaks their trademark if not

It's from https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp -- not associated with Meta, it's been around for years, and surely they know about it -- so I would guess either it's not a trademark violation or they don't care.

This post (https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35100086) from march 2023 says in the title "Llama.cpp: Port of Facebook's LLaMA model in C/C++"

By "not associated with Meta" meant, as far as I know, the authors don't work at Meta -- not that llama.cpp is unrelated to Meta's llama model.

How the fuck do you have 25k rep with a comment like this

This site seems scam for not noting origins of llama.cpp and fails to quickly and clearly communicate it NOT being affiliated with GGML org.

From https://github.com/ggml-org/llama.cpp:

> Visit https://llama.app and follow the instructions

It's linked at the start of the README.

It seems that llama.app is a direct competitor to ollama.com

I can understand the desire for the llama.cpp project to want to own the end user relationship, it is true that previous to this they were a tool provider and not really owning the end user experience.

And ollama were sketchy about not providing proper credit to llama.cpp, even though that’s all they are, a wrapper for it.

Yep now llama.cpp is copying Ollama

Ollama uses the llama.cpp backend for inference. I find Ollama noticably slower. Llama.cpp has had a built-in webui (used as llama-server) for a long time now so have owned the user experience too.
