By incorporating outside knowledge, RALMs generate text that is more useful, nuanced, and factually correct.

LangChain simplifies the development of sophisticated LLM applications by providing reusable components and pre-assembled chains.

We can also do arithmetic between these embeddings; for example, we can calculate distances between them:

Prompting supplies context, chaining enables inference steps, and retrieval incorporates facts. Together, these transform stochastic parrots into reasoning engines.

Connecting language models with online shopping tools allows them to perform actions like searching for items, loading detailed information about products, selecting item features, going through shopping pages, and making purchase decisions based on specific user instructions.

LangChain is an open-source Python framework for building LLM-powered applications. It provides developers with modular, easy-to-use components for connecting language models with external data sources and services.

Once we start making a lot of calls, especially in the map step, if we use a cloud provider, we’ll see tokens and, therefore, costs increase.

An agent is an autonomous software entity that is capable of taking actions to accomplish goals and tasks.

LangChain excels at chaining LLMs together using agents to delegate actions to models. Its use cases emphasize prompt optimization and context-aware information retrieval/generation; however, with its Pythonic highly modular interface and its huge collection of tools, it is the number-one tool to implement complex business logic.
