Validate activity before betting a new project on awesome-ai-safety. - Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough. - LLM Frameworks: Avoid a framework for a single prompt-and-retrieve call; the abstraction can cost more than it saves. ## When NOT to use pytorch - Data & Retrieval: Skip a heavy ingestion framework when your corpus is small and static; a script plus the embedding API is enough. - Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between awesome-ai-safety and pytorch? awesome-ai-safety: 📚 A curated list of papers & technical articles on AI Quality & Safety. pytorch: Tensors and Dynamic neural networks in Python with strong GPU acceleration.
