Original GitHub issue: https://github.com/ollama/ollama/issues/13747

What is the issue?

Tried x/z-image-turbo and got the following error:

Error: 500 Internal Server Error: failed to start image runner: fork/exec /opt/homebrew/Cellar/ollama/0.14.1/bin/ollama-mlx: no such file or directory

I tried uninstalling and reinstalling ollama, but there is still no ollama-mlx in /opt/homebrew/Cellar/ollama/0.14.1/bin.

Thanks!
