- AvocalixDevelopment of conversational agents using a proprietary LLMSOFTWARE PUBLISHINGOctober 2023 - December 2023 (2 months)Paris, FranceI worked as a Freelancer to develop conversational agents specialized in law, using the RAG method. These LLM-based conversational agents and Chatbots must be able to meet user needs by using a large database of legal texts, and many other tools to solve the tasks requested by users. For reasons of user data sensitivity, the chatbots had to use an LLM deployed by ourselves, on servers that we control, and not use OpenAI's APIs. The whole challenge is to deploy a lightweight LLM, inexpensive in computation and fast to respond to many requests. As for the chatbots using this LLM, they must be as accurate as possible by using a database of legal texts and know how to use the right tools at the right time. I developed these LLM agents based on Langchain. In some cases Langchain was not enough, so I switched to Guidance.
