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.

#SemanticKernel β πChat Service demo running Phi-2 LLM locally with #LMStudio
There is an amazing sample on how to create your own LLM Service class to be used in Semantic Kernel. You can view the Sample here: https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/blob/3451a4ebbc9db0d049f48804c12791c681a326cb/dotnet/samples/KernelSyntaxExamples/Example16_CustomLLM.cs

Semantic Tests for SemanticKernel Plugins using skUnit
This week, I had the chance to explore the SemanticKernel code base, particularly the core plugins. SemanticKernel comes equipped with these built-in plugins:
- FLaNK Stack for 04 December 2023
- Semantic Kernel

Getting Started with Semantic Kernel and C#
In this article we'll look at the high-level capabilities building AI orchestration systems in C# with Semantic Kernel, a rapidly maturing open-source AI orchestration framework.

Agency: Pure Go LangChain Alternative
I'm using Semantic Kernel (https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel) and it's really nice. Makes building more complex workflows really simple without sacrificing control.
A bunch of examples (https://github.com/microsoft/semantic-kernel/blob/main/dotne...) for how to handle just about anything you need to do with OAI with a lot less boilerplate.

Automated Routing of Tasks to Optimal Models: A PR for Semantic-Kernel
The need for efficient model routing has been a point of discussion in the community. Addressing this, I've submitted a pull request to Semantic-Kernel that introduces an automated multi-model connector.

We Built an AI-Powered Magic the Gathering Card Generator
ChatGPT's June updated added support for "function calling", which in practice is structured data I/O marketed very poorly: https://openai.com/blog/function-calling-and-other-api-updat...
Here's an example of using structured data for better output control (lightly leveraging my Python package to reduce LoC: https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat/blob/main/examples... )

LangChain Agent Simulation β Multi-Player Dungeons and Dragons
So what are the alternatives to LangChain that the HN crowd uses?
I see two contenders:
https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat/tree/main/simpleai...
https://github.com/griptape-ai/griptape
There is also the llm command line utility that has a very thin underlying library, but which might grow eventually:

Custom Instructions for ChatGPT
A fun note is that even with system prompt engineering it may not give the most efficient solution: ChatGPT still outputs the avergage case.
I tested around it and doing two passes (generate code and "make it more efficient") works best, with system prompt engineering to result in less code output: https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat/blob/main/examples...

The Problem with LangChain
I played around with simpleaichat for a few minutes just now, and I really like it. Unlike LangChain, I can understand what it does in minutes, and it looks like its primitives are fairly powerful. It looks like it's going to replace the `openai` library for me, it seems like a nice wrapper.
I'm especially looking forward to playing with the structured data models bit: https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat/blob/main/examples...
Well done, Max!

How is Langchain's dev experience? Any alternatives?
https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat bills itself as a simpler alternative to langchain. I have not tried it, but it looks interesting.

Stanford A.I. Courses
I think you are asking specifically about practical LLM engineering and not the underlying science.
Honestly this is all moving so fast you can do well by reading the news, following a few reddits/substacks, and skimming the prompt engineering papers as they come out every week (!).
https://www.latent.space/p/ai-engineer provides an early manifesto for this nascent layer of the stack.
Zvi writes a good roundup (though he is concerned mostly with alignment so skip if you donβt like that angle): https://thezvi.substack.com/p/ai-18-the-great-debate-debates
Simon W has some good writeups too: https://simonwillison.net/
I strongly recommend playing with the OpenAI APIs and working with langchain in a Colab notebook to get a feel for how these all fit together. Also, the tools here are incredibly simple and easy to understand (very new) so looking at, say, https://github.com/minimaxir/simpleaichat/tree/main/simpleai... or https://github.com/smol-ai/developer and digging in to the prompts, what goes in system vs assistant roles, how you gourde the LLM, etc.

Where is the engineering part in "prompt engineer"?
This notebook from the repo I linked to is a concise example, and the reason you would want to optimize prompts.
