Our Verdict
Open-source LLMs: Uncensored & secure AI locally with RAG offers an engaging and practical approach to understanding and implementing private chatGPT alternatives. While it does not provide comprehensive coverage of coding or theoretical concepts, the course excels at offering valuable insights into using tools like Llama3, Mistral, and more for various applications. However, if you're looking for a deeper dive into LLM differentiation or are focused on hands-on coding experiences, this course may not be your best fit.
What We Liked
- In-depth exploration of open-source Large Language Models (LLMs) like Llama3, Mistral, and more, providing an attractive alternative to censored and closed-source models.
- Hands-on learning with practical examples, prompt engineering techniques, and cloud deployment insights, enabling you to create your own assistants in HuggingChat and utilize open-source LLMs with fast LPU chips.
- Comprehensive introduction to various applications such as function calling, RAG, vector databases, LangChain, and AI-Agents for a wide range of scenarios, from data analysis to chatbot development.
- Additional tools, tips, and resources provided, including text-to-speech with Google Colab, finetuning open-source LLMs with Google Colab, and renting GPUs from providers like Runpod or Massed Compute for insufficient local PCs.
Potential Drawbacks
- Lacks in-depth coverage of coding or practical development, potentially limiting the learning experience for those seeking hands-on lessons.
- Some course materials, such as the instructor's notebooks, are not directly linked, which may hinder following along closely with the course content for some learners.
- Limited guidance on explaining differences or purposes of various LLM models, making it challenging for beginners to navigate the diverse landscape of LLMs.
- Occasionally references uncovered topics like LangChain and LlamaIndex without detailed exploration, which may lead to confusion for those interested in these specific areas.
