To query the model via API:
curl http://localhost:11434/api/generate -d '{
"model": "lynx-8b",
"prompt":"What are hallucinations in language models?"
}'
curl http://localhost:11434/api/chat -d '{
"model": "lynx-8b",
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "What are hallucinations in language models?"}
]
}'
Note that this creates streaming responses, so requires buffering for complete sequences:
❯ curl http://localhost:11434/api/chat -d '{
"model": "lynx-8b",
"messages": [
{"role": "user", "content": "What are hallucinations in language models?"}
