I made a new #python #package: llamabot! https://github.com/ericmjl/llamabot
It makes #prototyping with #LLMs easy by reducing the amount of boilerplate #code needed to get up and running.
On the roadmap are convenience #python #functions that make it easy to build #UIs around the chat models.
I've also written an accompanying blog post about llamabot. Check it out here! https://ericmjl.github.io/blog/2023/4/12/llamabot-an-opinionated-pythonic-interface-to-large-language-models/
If you're working with #LLMs, I'd love to get your feedback on it!

Many companies have obsessed about technologies in the past.
#Microsoft was obsessed with touchscreen-friendly #UIs when #Windows8 came out as well as the #WindowsMobile operating system. They were able to realise that people didn't like it, so they moved on. Where #Nokia got obsessed with the #WindowsMobile idea and never moved to #Android, resulting in their death.
#Blackberry was the first company to release a "smartphone" at that time. They knew people wanted to email and communicate more efficiently on their phones, and phones were no longer just for calling. So they released the full qwerty-keyboard. But they got stuck with it and didn't realise the strengths and flexibility of touchscreen-keyboards and the screen real estate that you lose with hardware keyboards. So their phones died out.

The news I thought was neat:
The #UIS Observatory participates in the #GlobalMeteorNetwork (https://globalmeteornetwork.org/), running two nodes in "a #decentralized #science-grade instrument which observes the night sky every night of the year from as many locations around the world as possible."
During last week's #Geminid showers, 85 meteors were observed on campus, and 182 were seen at the off-campus #astronomy #research #observatory.
Neat visualization of the data too! #dataviz
