Now, if you’re not familiar with what an LLM is or why it matters, let me break it down for ya. Essentially, Llama.cpp allows us to generate human-like text based on a given prompt using machine learning algorithms and neural networks. It’s like having your own personal AI assistant that can write essays, poetry, and even jokes!
But what sets Llama.cpp apart from other LLMs out there? Well, for starters, it’s incredibly fast thanks to its optimized C++ implementation and support for AVX2/AVX512 instructions on compatible CPUs (which means you can generate text at lightning speed!).
And that’s not all Llama.cpp also supports stateful control + generation, which makes it easy to interleave prompting / logic / generation without the need for intermediate parsers or complex workflows. This means you can create more sophisticated and interactive AI experiences with less hassle!
But don’t just take our word for it check out some of these examples from the Llama.cpp documentation:
# Define a variable 'lm' to store the user's selection and prompt for a joke or poem
lm = llama2 + f"Do you want a joke or a poem? A {select(['joke', 'poem'], name='answer')}.\n"
# Check the user's selection and generate a joke or poem accordingly
if lm["answer"] == "joke": # Use square brackets to access the value of the 'answer' key in the 'lm' dictionary
lm += f"Here is a one-line joke about cats: " + gen('output', stop='\n') # Use '+=' to append the generated joke to the 'lm' variable
else:
lm += f"Here is a one-line poem about dogs: " + gen('output', stop='\n') # Use '+=' to append the generated poem to the 'lm' variable
Pretty cool, right? And the best part is that Llama.cpp is open source and available on GitHub for anyone to use or contribute to!
