I followed this howto on Innovation for Bytes1 to set up Ollama and connect it to the Smart Connections plugin. It had the missing bits of documentation for the Model Platform and path bits.

Success? It looks like Obsidian’s Smart Connections plugin is talking with llama3 via Ollama!
But - the “summary” is extremely generic, and includes content that wasn’t in my notes. I didn’t write anything about “ample opportunities for networking with peers, including a reception and exhibit hall”. That definitely didn’t come from Obsidian. It sounds like something that might have been pulled from the SCUP 2024 website - but even that doesn’t have that content. And the future-tense used in the summary suggests it was taken from marketing blurbs - my notes were definitely not written in that tense. Is it just making stuff up based on what it’s seen from other conference descriptions included in its training data? If so, that does not bode well for a tool intended to make sense of my own notes…
I got it kinda working, but wow is it flakey as hell. Sometimes the chat thing will (slowly) respond. With stuff that doesn’t directly relate to my notes. Sometimes, it’ll spin for a bit and throw an error message:
Helpful error message from Smart Connections. It looks like something funky being (not?) returned from llama3 via Ollama (the data bit looks like part of the structured return data) but who knows? 🤷♂️
So. I made some progress, at least. It’s not quite working, but almost? I don’t know. Maybe it’s working and this is it? Either way, I’m out of time for futzing around with this for now…
