When does this happen?

IF Calling `bind_tools()` on a `ChatOllama` instance raises `AttributeError: 'ChatOllama' object has no attribute 'bind_tools'`.

How others solved it

THEN Use a chat model that natively supports `bind_tools` (e.g., `ChatOpenAI`) or switch to `OllamaFunctions` from `langchain_experimental` for experimental tool calling. Alternatively, wait for a future release of `langchain-core` where `ChatOllama` may implement `bind_tools`.

# Workaround using OpenAI
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI
llm = ChatOpenAI(model="gpt-4")
llm_with_tools = llm.bind_tools(tools=search_tools)
