Matt Williams (Technovangelist) - local LLMs on YouTube

Matt Williams, founding Ollama team member, makes Technovangelist: 96K subscribers of videos on local LLMs, Ollama and developer automation workflows.

Matt Williams makes videos as Technovangelist, a YouTube channel of about 96,000 subscribers and roughly 490 videos on running local and open-source language models, on Ollama, and on wiring AI into everyday developer workflows. He was part of the founding team at Ollama: he joined the eight-person startup while it was still called InfraHQ, describes himself as the only non-engineer on it, and left in January 2024, after which he went full-time on YouTube.
