  • Bash One-Liners for LLMs
    12 projects | news.ycombinator.com | 13 Dec 2023
    I've been gleefully exploring the intersection of LLMs and CLI utilities for a few months now - they are such a great fit for each other! The unix philosophy of piping things together is a perfect fit for how LLMs work.

    I've mostly been exploring this with my https://llm.datasette.io/ CLI tool, but I have a few other one-off tools as well: https://github.com/simonw/blip-caption and https://github.com/simonw/ospeak

    I'm puzzled that more people aren't loudly exploring this space (LLM+CLI) - it's really fun.

  • MetaCLIP – Meta AI Research

    I suggest trying BLIP for this. I've had really good results from that.

    I built a tiny Python CLI wrapper for it to make it easier to try: https://github.com/simonw/blip-caption
