Bypassing LLM and Embedding Model Weaknesses with Open Source Solutions
By
–
I'm not aware of a startup working on this directly, but people are talking about the problem. And it's an interesting way to bypass some issues with weaknesses that embedding models/existing LLMs have, especially if there's broader adoption of OSS LLMs.

Prompt Routing: Selecting Optimal Models for Different Prompts
By
–
I've also heard *very* recently (like, the past few weeks) about interest in what you could call Prompt Routing. The idea being that different models hallucinate in different ways, and there could be an opportunity to pick the right model for the right prompt algorithmically.

AI Frameworks as Business Models: LangChain and AutoGPT
By
–
Investors and industry professionals are still very split on how frameworks are going to play out as businesses. LangChain is the obvious one here, but there are a lot of other emerging frameworks w/ companies forming around them. AutoGPT comes up a lot in this context.

LLM Benchmark Debate: Comparing Model Performance Standards
By
–
That's led to this very weird debate over how to explicitly benchmark how these perform against each other. There's no great consensus on how to compare one against each other, and many (like Falcon 40B) are using leaderboards as their selling point.
