Re: #874, https://github.com/ollama-webui/ollama-webui/pull/10

Once this next commit makes it into ollama-webui (which seems to be among the best of all the local ChatGPT UIs that I've found so far), it would be trivial to embed that interface directly into ollama so that it becomes more accessible to more people.

Using some git tag magic and a little other automation, this could be seamless and fool-proof to automate for releases.

Hey @coolaj86 thank you for submitting this. Myself and many other maintainers on this project are huge fans of a great UI. For Ollama though, we are not specifically choosing to embed a UI for now because we want to support the many developers who are building their own UI. It would be unfair for Ollama to pick one and not support the others; they serve different use cases and users. What's amazing about an open-source community is giving users choice. Now, I do have to agree that in the future, we should maybe have something super simple to help users' troubleshoot / test.

Here are some example UIs that are open source that I've found for Ollama:
