## Choose when

### Choose Awesome-Multimodal-Large-Language-Models if…

- Tags unique to Awesome-Multimodal-Large-Language-Models: chain-of-thought, in-context-learning, instruction-following, instruction-tuning.
- - You need comprehensive resources for evaluating multimodal LLMs and want access to the latest research findings in this area.
- More GitHub stars (18k vs 313) - visibility, not fit.

### Choose MultiPL-E if…

- Pricing: Free to use but requires local compute resources and potentially licensed libraries.
- Tags unique to MultiPL-E: ai benchmark, benchmarking, code generation, multilingual benchmark.
- Use MultiPL-E for evaluating large language models' performance on code generation tasks in different languages directly without needing to create new benchmarks from scratch.

## When NOT to use Awesome-Multimodal-Large-Language-Models

- - If your primary focus is on single-modality language models, without a need to integrate visual or audio elements.
- - If you prefer tools that provide hands-on implementation guidance rather than surveys and benchmarks for theoretical exploration.

## When NOT to use MultiPL-E

- Avoid using MultiPL-E if you need a more challenging benchmark; consider Ag-LiveCodeBench-X instead.
- Do not use MultiPL-E if your evaluation environment lacks GPU resources for completion generation or does not support Docker or Podman for execution of generated code.
