In this riveting video from Connor Shorten, we dive headfirst into the tumultuous world of structured outputs with DSP. Picture this: large language models, those unruly beasts of the digital realm, often refuse to play by the rules. They spit out outputs in a haphazard manner, defying our instructions like a rebellious teenager. But fear not, for Connor takes us on a thrilling journey through the treacherous waters of formatting these outputs, ensuring they toe the line and behave as they should.
Our fearless guide introduces us to a trio of solutions to tame these wild language models. First up are DSP's typed predictors, wielding Json templates like a seasoned warrior to corral these unruly outputs. Then, we encounter DSy assertions, a groundbreaking tool that offers us a choice: crash and burn or soldier on with a single retry. And let's not forget custom guard rails, allowing us to forge our own path in the chaotic landscape of language model programming.
As we hurtle through the video, Connor sheds light on the evolution of function calling models and the rise of Json mode in the quest for structured outputs. The instructor library emerges as a beacon of hope, showcasing the power of Json-based structuring for complex tasks like ticket assignment and dependency management. And amidst the chaos, Phoenix stands tall, a vigilant guardian logging every call to these unpredictable language models, ensuring we stay on track in this tumultuous journey.
But the real thrill comes when Connor tackles the age-old problem of comma-separated list formatting with various language models. From the reliable gbt 4 to the unpredictable gbt turbo, each model presents its own set of challenges in adhering to the desired output structure. Through this rollercoaster of structured outputs and formatting woes, Connor Shorten proves himself as the fearless hero guiding us through the turbulent seas of language model programming.
