I&rsquo;ve customized my AI with some custom system prompts and skills. Here&rsquo;s how I did it:</p> <h1 id="1-lets-install-ollama">1. Let&rsquo;s install Ollama</h1> <p>Since I did this on Linux, let&rsquo;s install Ollama for AI:</p> <div class="highlight"><pre tabindex="0" style="color:#f8f8f2;background-color:#272822;-moz-tab-size:4;-o-tab-size:4;tab-size:4;"><code class="language-sh" data-lang="sh"><span style="display:flex;"><span>curl -fsSL https://ollama.com/install.sh | sh </span></span></code></pre></div><p>Just let it install. For me it took just a few minutes.</p>
