## Decision facts: END-TO-END-GENERATIVE-AI-PROJECTS

- **Adopt for:** Comprehensive generative AI projects focusing on Large Language Models (LLM) frameworks and deployment.

## Choose when

### Choose END-TO-END-GENERATIVE-AI-PROJECTS if…

- License: END-TO-END-GENERATIVE-AI-PROJECTS is MIT, lmdeploy is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to END-TO-END-GENERATIVE-AI-PROJECTS: gpt4o, gemini, finetuning-llms, generative-ai.
- - When you need a wide range of generative AI projects focused on various LLMs such as GPT4o, Gemini, Mistral, and more.

### Choose lmdeploy if…

- License: lmdeploy is Apache-2.0, END-TO-END-GENERATIVE-AI-PROJECTS is MIT.
- Tags unique to lmdeploy: codellama, llama, deepspeed, fastertransformer.
- More GitHub stars (8.0k vs 603) - visibility, not fit.

## When NOT to use END-TO-END-GENERATIVE-AI-PROJECTS

- - Avoid if your project strictly relies on a single specific framework not covered by this array of projects such as TensorFlow or PyTorch alone.
- - Not advisable for those seeking traditional ML models without an emphasis on generative text and conversational AI capabilities.

## When NOT to use lmdeploy

- 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.
- Inference & Serving: Self-hosting rarely beats a hosted API on cost until you have steady, high-volume traffic.
