embedchain VS khoj

You can use embedchain[1] to connect various data sources and then get a RAG application running on your local and production very easily. Embedchain is an open source RAG framework and It follows a conventional but configurable approach.

The conventional approach is suitable for software engineer where they may not be less familiar with AI. The configurable approach is suitable for ML engineer where they have sophisticated uses and would want to configure chunking, indexing and retrieval strategies.

Langchain is a big wrapper in itself and people can't be bothered to even use that to write 10 lines of code. Look at the traction this project is getting https://github.com/embedchain/embedchain, at it's heart it's just using few modules from langchain. The whole thing, chunking+embedding+retrieval+promoting can be done in 100 lines without langchain and embedchain.

There are already several RAG chat open source solutions available. Two that immediately come to mind are:

I'm a fan of Khoj. Been using it for months. https://github.com/khoj-ai/khoj

This is the easiest I found, on here too.

Thanks for the feedback. Does your machine have a GPU? 32GB CPU RAM should be enough but GPU speeds up response time.

We have fixes for the seg fault[1] and improvement to the query speed[2] that should be released by end of day today[3].

Update khoj to version 0.10.1 with pip install --upgrade khoj-assistant to see if that improves your experience.

The number of documents/pages/entries doesn't scale memory utilization as quickly and doesn't affect the search, chat response time as much

[1]: The seg fault would occur when folks sent multiple chat queries at the same time. A lock and some UX improvements fixed that

[2]: The query time improvements are done by increasing batch size, to trade-off increased memory utilization for more speed

We recently integrated Llama 2 into Khoj. I wanted to share a short real-world evaluation of using Llama 2 for the chat with docs use-cases and hear which models have worked best for you all. The standard benchmarks (ARC, HellaSwag, MMLU etc.) are not tuned for evaluating this

Self-host your Notion assistant using the instructions here. You'll need Python >= 3.8 to get started.

Here's an early example: https://github.com/khoj-ai/khoj
