What is Ollama?

Ollama v0.40.16 adds the 65B Ripple Preview coding model and cuts Qwen3.8 Flash memory on Macs.

Ollama keeps a weekly rhythm of model additions plus agent-host plumbing. v0.40.16 adds Ripple Preview, a 65B dense model for agentic coding, cuts Qwen3.8 Flash Next memory use on Apple silicon by about 27 GiB, makes `ollama launch claude` always route Claude Code to the selected model, and stops /v1/responses from silently truncating. A v0.40.17 candidate has started with an MLX version bump.

What is Wan 3.0 AI Video Generator?

Wan 3.0's feature sheet: 30-second clips, segment edits and reference-led consistency.

The Wan 3.0 entries are undated feature descriptions, not releases. They describe an AI video generator that produces clips up to 30 seconds at 480P, 720P or 1080P, edits a selected time range without regenerating the whole clip, and uses tagged image or video references to keep characters and scenes consistent. The rest is use-case copy for social and paid ads.

6.3

Ollama v0.40.16 adds the 65B Ripple Preview coding model and cuts Qwen3.8 Flash memory on Macs.

◆ Current state

Ollama keeps a weekly rhythm of model additions plus agent-host plumbing. v0.40.16 adds Ripple Preview, a 65B dense model for agentic coding, cuts Qwen3.8 Flash Next memory use on Apple silicon by about 27 GiB, makes `ollama launch claude` always route Claude Code to the selected model, and stops /v1/responses from silently truncating. A v0.40.17 candidate has started with an MLX version bump.

◆ Where it's heading

Each release pairs a new open coding model with fixes for how Ollama behaves behind other agents, from Claude Code routing to OpenAI-compatible endpoints. The MLX runner keeps getting attention, which points at Apple silicon as a priority platform.

◆ Prediction

Expect v0.40.17 within a week with another model addition and more MLX runner work.

W0.0

Wan 3.0's feature sheet: 30-second clips, segment edits and reference-led consistency.

◆ Current state

The Wan 3.0 entries are undated feature descriptions, not releases. They describe an AI video generator that produces clips up to 30 seconds at 480P, 720P or 1080P, edits a selected time range without regenerating the whole clip, and uses tagged image or video references to keep characters and scenes consistent. The rest is use-case copy for social and paid ads.

◆ Where it's heading

The capabilities listed point at production control rather than one-shot generation: longer clips, partial re-edits and per-reference direction in the prompt. Without dated releases there is no way to tell what shipped when or how fast it moves.

◆ Prediction

Unclear from the entries; none are dated, so no release cadence or next step can be read from them.
