LightspeedGPT

Multithreading for OpenAI calls with robust error handling

LightspeedGPT launched on August 25, 2023 with 96 votes, #945 of 4,401 launches that month and more than 75% of that year's launches.

What it does

Biggest problems with OpenAI GPT-4 API: 1. API errors (servers overloaded, request failed, no engine found, etc.). Don't let one API call failure ruin your entire program! 2. Slow! Lightspeed is an open source free solution available as a CLI tool and Colab.

    Whenever I get abnormally slow results or high rates of errors from GPT-4, I used to go and check the official OpenAI status site. But mostly it would always show green when I was experiencing issues. So Eliot who I work with built this little utility - an unofficial OpenAI status dashboard. It's designed to answer the question of "is GPT slow for everyone right now or just for me" and "is GPT having elevated rates of errors for everyone right now or just for me" It's aimed at API users but may also be useful for ChatGPT errors/slowness, I'm not sure. Possible features we're thinking…

    Outlines is a Python library that focuses on text generation with large language models. Brandon and I are not LLM experts and started the project a few months ago because we wanted to understand better how the generation process works. Our original background is probabilistic, relational and symbolic programming. Recently we came up with a fast way to generate text that matches a regex (https://blog.normalcomputing.ai/posts/2023-07-27-regex-guide...). The basic idea is simple: regular expressions have an equivalent Deterministic-Finite Automaton (DFA) representation. We…
