Stars - the number of stars that a project has on GitHub. Growth - month over month growth in stars.
Activity is a relative number indicating how actively a project is being developed. Recent commits have higher weight than older ones.
For example, an activity of 9.0 indicates that a project is amongst the top 10% of the most actively developed projects that we are tracking.

RAG with llama.cpp and external API services
Next, we'll show how an Embeddings database can integrate with external API services via LiteLLM .

Anthropic launches Tool Use (function calling)
There are a few libs that already abstract this away, for example:
- https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm
- https://jxnl.github.io/instructor/
- langchain
It's not hard for me to imagine a future where there is something like the CNCF for AI models, tools, and infra.

Integrate LLM Frameworks
This article will demonstrate how txtai can integrate with llama.cpp, LiteLLM and custom generation methods. For custom generation, we'll show how to run inference with a Mamba model.

Is there any open source app to load a model and expose API like OpenAI?
I use this with ollama and works perfectly https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm

OpenAI Switch Kit: Swap OpenAI with any open-source model
Another abstraction layer library is: https://github.com/BerriAI/litellm
For me the killer feature of a library like this would be if it implemented function calling. Even if it was for a very restricted grammar - like the traditional ReAct prompt:
Solve a question answering task with interleaving Thought, Action, Observation usteps. Thought can reason about the current situation, and Action can be three types:
- LibreChat
- LM Studio – Discover, download, and run local LLMs

Ollama v0.1.45
Sorry it's taking so long to review and for the radio silence on the PR.
We have been trying to figure out how to support more structured output formats without some of the side effects of grammars. With JSON mode (which uses grammars under the hood) there were originally quite a few issue reports namely around lower performance and cases where the model would infinitely generate whitespace causing requests to hang. This is an issue with OpenAI's JSON mode as well which requires the caller to "instruct the model to produce JSON" [1]. While it's possible to handle edge cases for a single grammar such as JSON (i.e. check for 'JSON' in the prompt), it's hard to generalize this to any format.
Supporting more structured output formats is definitely important. Fine-tuning for output formats is promising, and this thread [2] also has some great ideas and links.

Apple Intelligence, the personal intelligence system
> Doing everything on-device would result in a horrible user experience. They might as well not participate in this generative AI rush at all if they hoped to keep it on-device.
On the contrary, I'm shocked over the last few months how "on device" on a Macbook Pro or Mac Studio competes plausibly with last year's early GPT-4, leveraging Llama 3 70b or Qwen2 72b.
There are surprisingly few things you "need" 128GB of so-called "unified RAM" for, but with M-series processors and the memory bandwidth, this is a use case that shines.
From this thread covering performance of llama.cpp on Apple Silicon M-series …

Partial Outage on Claude.ai
I'd love to use local models, but seems like most of the easy to use software out there (LM Studio, Backyard AI, koboldcpp) doesn't really play all that nicely with my Intel Arc GPU and it's painfully slow on my Ryzen 5 4500. Even my M1 MacBook isn't that fast at generating text with even 7B models.
I wonder if llama.cpp with SYCL could help, will have to try it out: https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/README-sy...
But even if that worked, I'd still have the problem that IDEs and whatever else I have open already eats most of the 32 GB of RAM my desktop PC has. Whereas if I ran a small code model on the MacBook and connected to it through my PC, it'd still probably be too slow for autocomplete, when compared to GitHub Copilot and less accurate than ChatGPT or Phind for most stuff.

Why YC Went to DC
You're correct if you're focused exclusively on the work surrounding building foundation models to begin with. But if you take a broader view, having open models that we can legally fine tune and hack with locally has created a large and ever-growing community of builders and innovators that could not exist without these open models. Just take a look at projects like InvokeAI [0] in the image space or especially llama.cpp [1] in the text generation space. These projects are large, have lots of contributors, move very fast, and drive a lot of innovation and collaboration in applying AI to various domains in a way that simply wouldn't be possible without the open models.

Devoxx Genie Plugin : an Update
I focused on supporting Ollama, GPT4All, and LMStudio, all of which run smoothly on a Mac computer. Many of these tools are user-friendly wrappers around Llama.cpp, allowing easy model downloads and providing a REST interface to query the available models. Last week, I also added "👋🏼 Jan" support because HuggingFace has endorsed this provider out-of-the-box.

Mistral Fine-Tune
The output of the LLM is not just one token, but a statistical distribution across all possible output tokens. The tool you use to generate output will sample from this distribution with various techniques, and you can put constraints on it like not being too repetitive. Some of them support getting very specific about the allowed output format, e.g. https://github.com/ggerganov/llama.cpp/blob/master/grammars/... So even if the LLM says that an invalid token is the most likely next token, the tool will never select it for output. It will only sample from valid tokens.
