[00:00] Christopher David: Hot off the presses.
[00:02] Christopher David: Mistral just three hours ago launched,
[00:04] Christopher David: Mr. Large.
[00:07] Christopher David: Vasily Superior to Mr. Medium.
[00:10] Christopher David: 32K tokens of context.
[00:13] Christopher David: API, blah, blah, blah.
[00:16] Christopher David: Jason Format and function calling.
[00:20] Christopher David: Let's give it a try.
[00:22] Christopher David: I swapped out GPT4 with Mr.
[00:29] Christopher David: An hour amazing chat interface here.
[00:34] Christopher David: I have the previous version with GPT4 there.
[00:40] Christopher David: And I want to try these side by side.
[00:43] Christopher David: Apparently with the benchmarks,
[00:48] Christopher David: there's benchmarks against mixed role.
[00:50] Christopher David: We've used mixed role in the past.
[00:52] Christopher David: And here we go.
[00:54] Christopher David: So apparently,
[00:58] Christopher David: I would interpret this as Mr. Large being very close to GPT4.
[01:05] Christopher David: But I don't know. Let's try it.
[01:12] Christopher David: So we've got Mr. On the left.
[01:16] Christopher David: And we've got GPT4 on the right.
[01:28] Christopher David: So I'm going to try this.
[01:32] Christopher David: This isn't going to be like a general purpose.
[01:36] Christopher David: Apple gold to everybody.
[01:37] Christopher David: I'm just going to be seeing what of these work best for how I'm using it.
[01:43] Christopher David: And as a little bit of background,
[01:46] Christopher David: what we're doing is building an open agents platform.
[01:54] Christopher David: And the most recent sub project has been building an agent
[01:57] Christopher David: that can replace my day-to-day usage of chat GPT.
[02:00] Christopher David: On a paste code,
[02:01] Christopher David: a documentation into this interface along with a request.
[02:06] Christopher David: And get a response.
[02:07] Christopher David: We just added image input.
[02:09] Christopher David: So that's multimodal now.
[02:10] Christopher David: That uses GPT4V.
[02:12] Christopher David: But it would be cool if we could use GPT4V for some things.
[02:17] Christopher David: The best open model for other things.
[02:20] Christopher David: You know, be able to compose different models.
[02:22] Christopher David: But have it be one experience.
[02:24] Christopher David: That's kind of where we're coming from.
[02:26] Christopher David: So let's try first just asking both of these
[02:31] Christopher David: to summarize the read me of our project.
[02:41] Christopher David: Fingers crossed live demo this word.
[02:44] Christopher David: Type in the exact same thing.
[02:50] Christopher David: So one thing to note is that
[02:54] Christopher David: we're going to use the project.
[02:56] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.
[02:58] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.

[04:08] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.
[04:10] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.
[04:12] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.
[04:14] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.
[04:16] Christopher David: We're going to use the project.
[04:18] Christopher David: I want an analysis.
[04:20] Christopher David: Why you said that.
[04:22] Christopher David: The speed of Mr. Lard here is amazing.
[04:28] Christopher David: OK.
[04:34] Christopher David: Hose nations minus one.
[04:38] Christopher David: GPD4 wins that round.
[04:42] Christopher David: Let's try something else.
[04:44] Christopher David: Explain what I'm trying to do here.
[05:12] Christopher David: It's feeling the response.
[05:16] Christopher David: How do I look at it?
[05:20] Christopher David: Based on the provided link, you're trying to create an agent using the open agents.
[05:24] Christopher David: OK.
[05:30] Christopher David: Let's get a little more specific.
[05:36] Christopher David: What I'm actually in a process of doing is writing
[05:40] Christopher David: API docs for the API.
[05:50] Christopher David: Doing that in a way that I can kind of reason about doing our own front end application using this API.
[06:00] Christopher David: One of the things that I'm doing is going to be really finalizing the API as like this coherent
[06:08] Christopher David: holistic unit that I can reason about now because we've done 80 of these videos.
[06:14] Christopher David: I can see how the plugins need to work together with everything.
[06:18] Christopher David: So I'm going to be having GPT or some model help me do documents like this that will be visible on beautiful
[06:32] Christopher David: docs pages like this.
[06:36] Christopher David: It's so clear that I can have it generate the controllers, feature unit tests, models, validation,
[06:44] Christopher David: all the pain in the ass stuff just converting these docs, markdown docs into code.
[06:52] Christopher David: Having open agents itself do that using this interface kind of bootstrapping itself.
[06:58] Christopher David: I'll show off some of that in future videos.
[07:02] Christopher David: So what I really want to see it do is take this and generate some code.
[07:16] Christopher David: So what I'm going to do is I'm going to do this.
[07:26] Christopher David: The way I have this working right now is it'll fetch and retrieve the content and pass that in as context.
[07:32] Christopher David: But I don't think it saves that augmented context to the message chain.
[07:38] Christopher David: I'll probably add that soon.
[07:40] Christopher David: But for now, I'm just going to start a new message chain.
[07:44] Christopher David: I'll just add a generate example, LeraVille controller route tests etc to fully implement this API doc.
[08:02] Christopher David: Where I include obvious placeholder data like the 200, 400 responses with junk data,
[08:12] Christopher David: logical replacements for those.
[08:16] Christopher David: Okay.
[08:18] Christopher David: Uh oh.
[08:20] Christopher David: I have a habit of dumping all of the code in because that's what I've been doing, but we're not doing it anymore.
[08:26] Christopher David: Just dropping the link.
[08:30] Christopher David: Copy.
[08:32] Christopher David: Okay.
[08:34] Christopher David: I should really do the GPT1 first since it's slower.
[08:38] Christopher David: Yeah, I still got to improve some stuff with this chatter face like it doesn't apply syntax highlighting until the end.
[08:50] Christopher David: But doesn't that look amazing?
[08:56] Christopher David: All right, still waiting on open AI.
[09:04] Christopher David: That speed is quite good.
[09:08] Christopher David: All right, here's kind of the measurement of truth.
[09:14] Christopher David: Sure, I'd be happy to help you implement this API documentation using LeraVille.
[09:18] Christopher David: Here's a basic example of how you might trust your code.
[09:22] Christopher David: Okay. File pass. Nice.
[09:24] Christopher David: No file pass on GPT.
[09:26] Christopher David: Based on the provided API documentation and the requested generate LeraVille resources, here's an example.
[09:32] Christopher David: Okay.
[09:34] Christopher David: Do not say it's set to it to me. I say it's set to it to you.
[09:36] Christopher David: Our agent controller.
[09:42] Christopher David: This is like standard super basic LeraVille.
[09:48] Christopher David: This is interesting.
[09:52] Christopher David: Agent service.
[10:02] Christopher David: Ooh.
[10:20] Christopher David: This is good. Let's keep looking.
[10:22] Christopher David: Test feature.
[10:32] Christopher David: Not a fan of this add other fields here thing.
[10:38] Christopher David: Right, I'm looking at feature and unit.
[10:44] Christopher David: Where is their feature test?
[10:48] Christopher David: Ooh.
[10:50] Christopher David: Okay. GPT for said unit test colon and then gave me a feature test.
[11:00] Christopher David: That's a big minus one there.
[11:04] Christopher David: This test is fine.
[11:08] Christopher David: It is an actual feature test and it's got the file path.
[11:12] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:16] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:18] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:20] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:22] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:24] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:26] Christopher David: I'm going to use the file path.
[11:28] Christopher David: Okay.
[11:40] Christopher David: This is a bit of a subtle point.
[11:44] Christopher David: But I, in my vibes, what I like of these better.
[11:49] Christopher David: I like the mistural response better.
[11:52] Christopher David: Here's why.
[11:54] Christopher David: It includes this concept of an agent service.
[11:57] Christopher David: Now, this is a bit beyond the very basic layer of L.
[12:01] Christopher David: Pred controller.
[12:03] Christopher David: This is the basic pattern.
[12:05] Christopher David: You validate it.
[12:07] Christopher David: You do whatever model operation is.
[12:09] Christopher David: You return the JSON response.
[12:11] Christopher David: Basic good.
[12:13] Christopher David: Yes.
[12:15] Christopher David: For what we're building here.
[12:19] Christopher David: It's going to be used by.
[12:21] Christopher David: These methods that are doing operations to create agents.
[12:26] Christopher David: They're going to be accessible via an API.
[12:30] Christopher David: But also from live wire.
[12:34] Christopher David: And we're going to need a lot of that code to be accessible either from a live wire component.
[12:40] Christopher David: Or an API endpoint without duplicating things.
[12:50] Christopher David: The code to interact with agents is going to need to be in some way.
[12:54] Christopher David: I'm going to need to be in some separate abstraction.
[13:04] Christopher David: My abstractions like that to this point have been within the app services folder.
[13:10] Christopher David: So the fact that it kind of abstracted that.
[13:16] Christopher David: In the exact way that I'm going to need that I knew that I needed.
[13:21] Christopher David: This is like one or two steps ahead of where am I thinking was at.
[13:25] Christopher David: But it's like yes, I know that I need that.
[13:29] Christopher David: It's like it gets me.
[13:31] Christopher David: And I give me the service.
[13:33] Christopher David: Part of me I was like, oh, then it just do that.
[13:37] Christopher David: What didn't have to do the work of figuring out how this should be implemented.
[13:41] Christopher David: No, it's right there.
[13:43] Christopher David: Okay.
[13:47] Christopher David: The headline here is that for the first head to head request of how I use.
[13:57] Christopher David: Catched you BTE or these types of language models.
[14:03] Christopher David: Giving the exact same request to GPT4 and Mr. Large.
[14:07] Christopher David: I strongly prefer the response from Mr. Large.
[14:11] Christopher David: And it was like two times as fast.
[14:15] Christopher David: More to do in terms of experimenting with function calling and stuff like that.
[14:23] Christopher David: But I will be heavily integrating Mr. Large into my workflow moving forward.
[14:29] Christopher David: Stay tuned.
[14:31] Christopher David: See ya.
