Creating Fun with Ollama's Generate API: How to Build a Joke Generator in Python

In the world of conversational AI, it's not all about providing serious answers; sometimes, it's about having a bit of fun! With Ollama’s Generate API, you can easily generate creative content, such as jokes, stories, or even poems, by simply providing a prompt.

In this blog post, we will demonstrate how to use Ollama’s generate method to build a fun, interactive joke generator in Python. This example will show how easy it is to get started with creative AI applications.

 

What is Ollama's Generate API?

Ollama’s Generate API allows you to create custom content based on a given prompt. Instead of interacting with the AI in a conversational manner like the Chat API, the Generate API focuses on content creation. You provide a prompt, and the model generates text based on that input. This feature is perfect for use cases such as content generation, creative writing, or even generating jokes like in our example.

 

helloGenerate.py

import ollama

response = ollama.generate(
    model = "llama3.2",
    prompt = "Tell me a Joke"
)

print(response["response"])

 

Output
