Is this alive? Last release June 21
There are many projects like these I'm tracking, but they all kinda cool off after the initial prototype and have thus many quirks and limitations
So far the only one that I could reliably use was llamacpp grammars, and those are fairly slow
- Forgotthepass8 3y agoLMQL seems to be alive and takes some of these concepts even further. It's the project of 1 or 2 PhD students at ETH Zürich so I'm hopeful they'll see it through. I thought guidance was smart, but LMQL seems brilliant as it merges pythonic constructions with LLMs (I think it may be an outright superset of python with LLM functionalities?) It's predicated off a paper as well : https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.06094 https://arxiv.org/pdf/2212.06094
- verdverm 3y agoLMQL requires a user to learn a bespoke programming language. Not a good idea, no one really wants to have to learn a new programming language to work with one library or framework. You have to have a really compelling offering. With LLMs, the libraries and frameworks are a dime-a-dozen, so it's going to be a much bigger ask of your users
- Forgotthepass8 3y agoI see your point but at the same time I'm looking for alternatives and guidance isn't really alive and langchain is just... a lot of stuff(arguably bloat..) and I don't see any obvious easy value from it like I see in lmql/guidance.
- verdverm 3y ago> Is this alive? Last release June 21 How often does a project need to release to not be considered dead? It's only been 10 weeks, in the summer, at the peak of vacation time Look at the most recent commits, they are setting up new governance, which likely took more than 1o weeks to work through the bureaucracy of Mircosoft
