Choose atlas if…
- atlas is primarily Rust; generative-ai-for-beginners is Jupyter Notebook.
- License: atlas is AGPL-3.0, generative-ai-for-beginners is MIT.
- Tags unique to atlas: cuda, dgx, dgx-spark, gb10.
- Also covers Inference & Serving.
When NOT to use atlas
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
