OpenPilot, an open-source AI coding assistant for VS Code

If you have tried GitHub's Copilot Chat, then this will look familiar to you. The main difference, however, is you can choose which LLM to talk to. So far OpenPilot supports GPT 3.5/4 and Google PaLM 2. I'd like to add support for more models (Claude 2, etc) but have been stuck on waiting lists so I haven't tested them. OpenPilot will give context to your prompts by automatically including relevant files from your workspace. You don't need to have the file open or manually highlight the code in question. It does this using 2 techniques: 1. All the files in your workspace are transformed…

    Hey HN OpenCopilot is an OSS framework which helps devs to build open-source AI Copilots that actually work and embed into their product with ease. Why another LLM framework? Twitter is full of impressive LLM applications but once you peel off the curtains it’s clear that they are just demos. The reason being because building an AI Copilot that goes beyond a Twitter demo can be complex, time-consuming and unreliable. Our team has been in the AI space since 2018 and built numerous LLM apps & copilots. While doing that, we got approached by many startups saying they’d also like to build a…

  • 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…
