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.

LiteLlama-460M-1T has 460M parameters trained with 1T tokens
Or combine it with something like llama.cpp's grammer or microsoft's guidance-ai[0] (which I prefer) which would allow adding some react-style prompting and external tools. As others have mentioned, instruct tuning would help too.

Prompting LLMs to constrain output
have been experimenting with guidance and lmql. a bit too early to give any well formed opinions but really do like the idea of constraining llm output.

Is supervised learning dead for computer vision?
Thanks for your comment.
I did not know about "Betteridge's law of headlines", quite interesting. Thanks for sharing :)
You raise some interesting points.
1) Safety: It is true that LVMs and LLMs have unknown biases and could potentially create unsafe content. However, this is not necessarily unique to them, for example, Google had the same problem with their supervised learning model https://www.theverge.com/2018/1/12/16882408/google-racist-go.... It all depends on the original data. I believe we need systems on top of our models to ensure safety. It is also possible to restrict the output domain of our models (https://github.com/guidance-ai/guidance). Instead of allowing our LVMs to output any words, we could restrict it to only being able to answer "red, green, blue..." when giving the color of a car.
2) Cost: You are right right now LVMs are quite expensive to run. As you said are a great way to go to market faster but they cannot run on low-cost hardware for the moment. However, they could help with training those smaller models. Indeed, with see in the NLP domain that a lot of smaller models are trained on data created with GPT models. You can still distill the knowledge of your LVMs into a custom smaller model that can run on embedded devices. The advantage is that you can use your LVMs to generate data when it is scarce and use it as a fallback when your smaller device is uncertain of the answer.
3) Labelling data: I don't think labeling data is necessarily cheap. First, you have to collect the data, depending on the frequency of your events could take months of monitoring if you want to build a large-scale dataset. Lastly, not all labeling is necessarily cheap. I worked at a semiconductor company and labeled data was scarce as it required expert knowledge and could only be done by experienced employees. Indeed not all labelling can be done externally.
However, both approaches are indeed complementary and I think systems that will work the best will rely on both.
Thanks again for the thought-provoking discussion. I hope this answer some of the concerns you raised

Show HN: Elelem – TypeScript LLMs with tracing, retries, and type safety
I've had a bit of trouble getting function calling to work with cases that aren't just extracting some data from the input. The format is correct but it was harder to get the correct data if it wasn't a simple extraction.
Hopefully OpenAI and others will offer something like https://github.com/guidance-ai/guidance at some point to guarantee overall output structure.
Failed validations will retry, but from what I've seen JSONSchema + generated JSON examples are decently reliable in practice for gpt-3.5-turbo and extremely reliable on gpt-4.

Claude 2 Internal API Client and CLI
We're using it via langchain talking to Amazon Bedrock which is hosting Claude 1.x. It's comparable to GPT3.x, not bad. The integration doesn't seem to be fully there though, I think langchain is expecting "Human:" and "AI:", but Claude uses "Assistant:".

Any better alternatives to fine-tuning GPT-3 yet to create a custom chatbot persona based on provided knowledge for others to use?
Depending on how much work you want to put into it, you can get started at HuggingFace with their models and datasets, but you'd need compute power, multiple MLOps, etc. I was introduced to the concept in this video, since Google has their Vertex AI tools on Google Cloud, and there's always LangChain but I'm not sure about anything recent.

Langchain Is Pointless
Yeah I never know where memory goes exactly in langchain, it's not exactly clear all the time. But sure, the main insight I remember is this, take a look at their MULTI_PROMPT_ROUTER_TEMPLATE: https://github.com/hwchase17/langchain/blob/560c4dfc98287da1...
It's a lot of instructions for an LLM, they seem to forget an LLM is an auto-completion machine, and which data it is trained on. Using <<>> for sections is not a normal thing, it's not markdown, which probably the thing read way more often on the internet, instead of open json comments, why not type signatures, instead of so many rules, why not give it examples? It is an autocomplete machine!
They are relying too much on the LLM being smart because they probably only test stuff in GPT-4 and 3.5, but with GPT4All models this prompt was not working at all, so I had to rewrite it, for simple routing, we don't even need json, carying the `next_inputs` here is weird if you don't need it.
So this is my version of it: https://gist.github.com/rogeriochaves/b67676977eebb1936b9b5c...
It's so basic it's dumb, yet it is more powerful, as it does not rely on GPT-4 level intelligence, it's just what I needed
