## Choose when

### Choose multilingual-safety-for-LLMs if…

- Tags unique to multilingual-safety-for-LLMs: jailbreak, llm, multilingual, safety.
- Also covers Vector Databases.
- Leaner open-issue backlog (0).

### Choose generative-ai-for-beginners if…

- Tags unique to generative-ai-for-beginners: generativeai, dall-e, ai, generative-ai.
- More GitHub stars (113k vs 105) - visibility, not fit.

## When NOT to use multilingual-safety-for-LLMs

- Last GitHub push was 857 days ago (dormant maintenance, Mar 7, 2024). Validate activity before betting a new project on multilingual-safety-for-LLMs.
- Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
- Vector Databases: Don't reach for a dedicated vector DB under ~100k vectors; pgvector on your existing Postgres is simpler to operate.
- LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves.

## When NOT to use generative-ai-for-beginners

- 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.
