The project Ollama, once the go-to tool for local LLM execution, is facing scrutiny over its shift toward cloud-based models and its reliance on venture capital.

Choosing between DeepSeek and Ollama for model access requires analyzing peak-hour schedules and concurrency needs rather than just comparing token prices.

An experiment connecting local Gemma models to Codex via MCP revealed that delegating routine tasks to a local LLM can double cloud token consumption instead of reducing it.
