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.

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... )

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 don’t 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.

Langchain and the implementation of Custom Tools also is a great (and very efficient) way to setup a dedicated Q&A (for example for chat purpose) agent.

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
