I've been playing around with sentence embeddings to search documents, but I wonder how useful they are as a natural language interface for a database. The way one might phrase a question might be very different content wise from how the document describes the answer. Maybe it might be possible to do some type of transform where the question is transformed into a possible answer and then turned into a embedding but I…
Really excited to see LangChain moving really fast in this space. They turn your favorite Llm into a real boy that can do real work. Some "agents" in their vernacular that I've built. * A reminder system that can take a completely free-form English description and turn it into a precise date and time and schedule it with an external scheduler. * A tool that can take math either in English or ascii like y = 2x^2 + ln(…
I share your enthusiasm for LangChain (as well as LlamaIndex). I don’t remember being as obsessed by any new technology. I am writing a book on the subject [1] but to be honest the documentation and available examples are so very good, that my book has turned into just a write up of my own little projects. I agree that some things really are trivial to implement and I think this opens the door to non-programmers who…
Thanks for writing this.
A little off-topic: are LLMs the death knell for new languages, frameworks, tools, processes, etc? I can see how an LLM is going to be such a huge productivity boost that they’ll be hard to avoid everywhere, but then new stuff won’t have any training data. Will anyone ever go through the effort of everything being 10x - 100x less effective with new tools since there’s no training data?

Are any of those open source / are they on Github? Could you link it?
Does anyone have an opinion on LangChain versus Deepset Haystack? Haystack seems more polished for NLP tasks, but LangChain looks more extensible long term? Thanks!
Who would have thought we'd be able to follow the birth of Skynet in real-time.

it worked through a software problem and came to a conclusion based on the computer's feedback
I feel like it brute forced an answer? I actually think that this could've been achieved with Stack Overflow Search API?

It looks to me like something a junior developer would do. It's not pure brute force
I'd say that a person using Linux for the first time might do what is happening in that demo.
Anyway, not to diminish the bot or LLMs or whatever, but it's definitely something that could be done using the Stack Overflow Search API or similar. I'd say it's actually a very primitive / boring use of an LLM.
