Pardon me for hijacking this post but my question is something similar: What should be the roadmap as a developer to get into the GenerativeAI/LLM space? I want to learn how to use different LLMs, how to use them from hugging face and their different features like embeddings etc.

I am a Python developer who has never worked on ML/data science before, I am mostly into Data Engineering

Are you trying to learn how train LLMs or use LLMs to produce things?

Sorry! Just updated my comment. I was talking about usage to build products

I’m not an expert, but I just picked a project and used the OpenAI API — but with a wrapper that should let me swap out backends if/when I get a computer with a nice GPU.

Python is great for mixing API calls, document formatting, and other data scraping.

For myself, the problem was finding something interesting to do — in my case, generating videos from basic prompts.

With 2015 Macbook, I do not have such luxury

Does it not run Python?

I’m working off a 4GiB system with no dedicated GPU — and the Python APIs for OpenAI work fine, but admittedly, I have a Linux system.

I was talking about other LLMs, do they also provide API? What LLM are you using for image generation?
