## Choose when

### Choose Awesome-LLMs-ICLR-24 if…

- Tags unique to Awesome-LLMs-ICLR-24: large-language-model, large-language-models, large-language-models-and-translation-sy, large-language-models-for-graph-learning.
- Also covers LLM Frameworks, Vector Databases.
- Leaner open-issue backlog (0).

### Choose anything-llm if…

- Tags unique to anything-llm: agent-computer, agent-harness, agentic-ai, local-ai.
- Also covers Inference & Serving.
- When you need flexibility in deploying your AI agents on various cloud platforms like AWS, GCP, Digital Ocean, and more.

## When NOT to use Awesome-LLMs-ICLR-24

- Last GitHub push was 832 days ago (dormant maintenance, Apr 4, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on Awesome-LLMs-ICLR-24.
- AI Agents: Don't use an agent loop when a deterministic workflow would do; agents add latency, cost, and non-determinism.
- 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.

## When NOT to use anything-llm

- Avoid if you require an agent without additional setup or prefer SaaS solutions over self-managed deployments.
- Not suitable for users who are looking for no-code alternatives as setting up AnythingLLM might necessitate some coding knowledge despite offering multiple scripts and methods.
