    OP here. i agree. perhaps you're confused on the intent. the only flag being planted is for folks using rasa looking for a reference implementation just like i was a week ago. not …

    well to be fair, when you're scaling it does matter. i would want my techlead or seniors to care and know when/where to make specific trade-offs bc cloud costs are not forgiving. i…

    in terms of search store and engine, would you agree that pgvector is sufficient for most text-specific cases?

    very much agreed re: dust settling. it makes no sense deploying any of these libraries to prod. as-is. best to understand a configuration / workflow / tuning / etc. that fits your …

    ah! in that case glad you asked. my objective falls into neither bucket. i want rasa users to find it so i optimize for search (GH tags, clear description), ease of use (video, add…

    OP here. that's a somewhat cynical interpretation. what if i just care about aesthetics and want to raise the bar. my primary motivation was to get users of Rasa out of a direction…

    there are a few decent YT videos on this topic (dated 2022 though) vast.ai is decent if you want to rent.

    the next best platform I could find for my friend I was helping was google's dialog flow. again, it was managed, closed-source opinionated and not as flexible. and most importantly…

    it solves how to integrate LLMs (Langchain) an application API pipeline with Rasa... of which I could not find an out-of-the-box public example on github. and so here we are :) TL;…

    yes. there are a few approaches which i intend to take and some helpful resources: You could implement a Dual LLM Pattern Model https://simonwillison.net/2023/Apr/25/dual-llm-patte…

    very interesting abstraction. very DBT-esque. i will dig into the docs, thanks for sharing!

    Comment #35860604

    Amen. Constructive feedback to Langchain dev(s): - Reduce bloat, make packages optional e.g. pip install langchain[all] - Reduce opinionated implementation of vector stores, I want…

    I was referring to Langchain who raised $10mm from Benchmark https://blog.langchain.dev/announcing-our-10m-seed-round-led... I'm fairly Jerry Liu (LlamaIndex founder) already has a…

    Comment #35860487

    To be clear (apologies if I haven't made it so) this is not an LLM. This is an implementation of Rasa leveraging Langchain under the hood. A user technically does not need to dig i…

    I agree. I mentioned in a thread below that these frameworks are useful for discovering appropriate index-retrieval strategy that works best for you product. On PGVector, I tried t…

    Comment #35860379

    It itself is not a GPT. It is a a framework of a framework project built on top of Rasa ( https://github.com/RasaHQ/rasa ) and Langchain which by default uses gpt3.5-turbo (change …

    lololol. i think this opportunity gets bigger post $10m seed round. they'll likely double down and expand footprint vs the inverse. check out llama-index. its purpose-built for doc…

    Comment #35860229

    Not off-topic at all. After struggling with LangChain's hyper-opinionated implementation of classes I agree. In fact, this is better off leveraging Llamaindex. This is a proof-of-c…

    why is that exactly? is it offensive, if so I'm unaware and appreciate the feedback.

    I appreciate the feedback. I didn't realize they were acting on it. Would Rasa-LLM sound as compelling?
