Last time, we discussed how to prepare the data for our question-generating system. To recap, here was the rough plan:

1. Fetch and prepare Wikipedia data (see more here)
2. Use an LLM to generate questions based on a given Wikipedia article (the focus of today’s post)

There are numerous LLM services available online, but for our purposes, we’ll use an open-source solution that can be run locally on our machine: ollama. This tool acts as a wrapper around popular, freely available models, providing a uniform API and CLI while managing model downloads for us.
