An experiment using Ollama to test Modelfile templates revealed an unexpected issue where the template was not being applied correctly. The user observed that the prompt token count remained high, indicating the template's intended modification was ignored. This was further complicated by the fact that a different model family showed correct template application, suggesting Ollama might handle templates differently across model types. The user implemented a validity check to ensure the template modification was successful before accepting the results of future runs. AI
