jsonformer VS mlc-llm

- Tools like jsonformer https://github.com/1rgs/jsonformer are not possible with OpenAIs API.

How does this compare in terms of latency, cost, and effectiveness to jsonformer? https://github.com/1rgs/jsonformer

You're correct with interpreting how the model works wrt it returning tokens one at a time. The model returns one token, and the entire context window gets shifted right by one to for account it when generating the next one.

As for model performance at different context sizes, it's seems a bit complicated. From what I understand, even if models are tweaked (for example using the superHOT RoPE hack or sparse attention) to be able to use longer contexts, they still have to be fined tuned on input of this increased context to actually utilize it, but performance seems to degrade regardless as input length increases.

For your question about fine tuning models to respond with only "yes" or "no", I recommend looking into how the jsonformers library works: https://github.com/1rgs/jsonformer . Essentially, you still let the model generate many tokens for the next position, and only accept the ones that satisfy certain criteria (such as the token for "yes" and the token for "no".

You can do this with openAI API too, using tiktoken https://twitter.com/AAAzzam/status/1669753722828730378?t=d_W... . Be careful though as results will be different on different selections of tokens, as "YES", "Yes", "yes", etc are all different tokens to the best of my knowledge

From here, we just need to continue generating tokens until we get to a closing quote. This approach was borrowed from Jsonformer which uses a similar approach to induce LLMs to generate structured output. Continuing to do so for each property using Replit's code LLM gives the following output:

https://github.com/1rgs/jsonformer or https://github.com/microsoft/guidance may help get better results, but I ended up with a bit more of a custom solution.

I think function calling is just JSONformer idk: https://github.com/1rgs/jsonformer

This one uses gpu, it doesn't support Mistral yet: https://github.com/mlc-ai/mlc-llm

I have tried running mistral 7B with MLC on my m1 metal. And it kept crushing (git issue with description). Memory inefficiency problems.

For LLM inference, a shoutout to MLC LLM, which runs LLM models on basically any API that's widely available: https://github.com/mlc-ai/mlc-llm

One of your problems might be that gfx1032 is not supported by AMD's ROCm packages, which has a laughably short list of supported hardware: https://rocm.docs.amd.com/en/latest/release/gpu_os_support.h...

The normal workaround is to assign the closest architecture, eg gfx1030, so `HSA_OVERRIDE_GFX_VERSION=10.3.0` might help

Also, it looks like some of your tested projects are OpenCL? For me, I do something like: `yay -S rocm-hip-sdk rocm-ml-sdk rocm-opencl-sdk` to cover all the bases.

My recent interest has been LLMs and this is my general step by step for those (llama.cpp, exllama) for those interested: https://llm-tracker.info/books/howto-guides/page/amd-gpus

I didn't port the docs back in, but also here's a step-by-step w/ my adventures getting TVM/MLC working w/ an APU: https://github.com/mlc-ai/mlc-llm/issues/787

From my experience, ROCm is improving, but there's a good reason that Nvidia has 90% market share even at big price premiums.

Maybe they're talking about https://github.com/mlc-ai/mlc-llm which is used for web-llm (https://github.com/mlc-ai/web-llm)? Seems to be using TVM.

you already have TVM for the cross platform stuff
