Ollama adds NVIDIA's Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B for local use

The Ollama library now carries nemotron-3.5-bolt:e4b, a 7.2–7.9 GB download with a 128K context window that takes text and images and supports tool calls. NVIDIA post-trained it from Gemma 4 E4B (8B parameters, 4B effective) for local assistants; run it with `ollama run nemotron-3.5-bolt:e4b`. The "4GB" in Ollama's post is part of NVIDIA's model name, not the download size.

Why it matters

NVIDIA's 4GB small open model Nemotron 3.5 Bolt E4B now runs locally on Ollama, aimed at local assistants, conversational characters and robots that use tools.
