Choose GPA if…
- GPA is primarily Python; generative-ai-for-beginners is Jupyter Notebook.
- License: GPA is Apache-2.0, generative-ai-for-beginners is MIT.
- Tags unique to GPA: voice-conversion, automatic-speech-recognition, asr, text-to-speech.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
When NOT to use GPA
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
