Launch HN: Panora (YC S24) – Data Integration API for LLMs 8 by nael_ob | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN! We're Nael and Rachid, and we're building Panora ( https://ift.tt/cESKoMa ), an open-source API that connects various data sources to LLMs, from 3rd party integrations to embeddings and chunking generation. Here's a demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=45QaN8mzAfg , and you can check our docs here: https://ift.tt/OJ4Qcmy Our GitHub repo is at https://ift.tt/cESKoMa . Building integrations by hand is tedious and time-consuming. You must adapt to API documentation quirks, manage request retries, OAuth/API key authorization, refresh tokens, rate limits, and data sync freshness. Moreover, you have to keep up with the constant rise of embedding models and chunking capabilities. On the other hand, with the rise of AI-powered apps, you have to handle embedding and chunking of all the unstructured data. The dominant player in this space is Merge.dev, but it has several d...

Show HN: Tune LLaMa3.1 on Google Cloud TPUs 3 by felarof | 0 comments on Hacker News. Hey HN, we wanted to share our repo where we fine-tuned Llama 3.1 on Google TPUs. We’re building AI infra to fine-tune and serve LLMs on non-NVIDIA GPUs (TPUs, Trainium, AMD GPUs). The problem: Right now, 90% of LLM workloads run on NVIDIA GPUs, but there are equally powerful and more cost-effective alternatives out there. For example, training and serving Llama 3.1 on Google TPUs is about 30% cheaper than NVIDIA GPUs. But developer tooling for non-NVIDIA chipsets is lacking. We felt this pain ourselves. We initially tried using PyTorch XLA to train Llama 3.1 on TPUs, but it was rough: xla integration with pytorch is clunky, missing libraries (bitsandbytes didn't work), and cryptic HuggingFace errors. We then took a different route and translated Llama 3.1 from PyTorch to JAX. Now, it’s running smoothly on TPUs! We still have challenges ahead, there is no good LoRA library in JAX, but this feel...

Ask HN: How do you manage your prompts in ChatGPT? 10 by nabi_nafio | 6 comments on Hacker News. I use ChatGPT regularly for a lot of different tasks. For example, coding, health Q&A, and summarizing docs. The different prompts stack up in the sidebar which becomes very difficult to manage. For example, I frequently have to refer back to a prompt that I wrote previously. But I usually give up looking for it because of the tedious scroll and search process. I was wondering if there is an easier way. How do you manage your prompts in ChatGPT?
