## Choose when

### Choose AI-Infra-from-Zero-to-Hero if…

- License: AI-Infra-from-Zero-to-Hero is MIT, autokeras is Apache-2.0.
- Tags unique to AI-Infra-from-Zero-to-Hero: ai-infra, genai, large language models, llmsys.
- Also covers Inference & Serving, LLM Frameworks.
- When you are aiming to understand the foundational research papers, industry practices, video tutorials specific to ML systems and LLM infrastructures without requiring implementation details.

### Choose autokeras if…

- License: autokeras is Apache-2.0, AI-Infra-from-Zero-to-Hero is MIT.
- Tags unique to autokeras: autodl, automl, deep-learning, keras.
- When your project involves deep learning tasks requiring minimal manual intervention in designing models.

## When NOT to use AI-Infra-from-Zero-to-Hero

- If you need step-by-step implementations for AI infrastructure setup as the repository focuses on resources rather than detailed technical instructions.
- Avoid if seeking guidance specifically for real-time system deployment and tuning, since it does not cover operational tactics in depth.

## When NOT to use autokeras

- When working with Python versions older than 3.7 or TensorFlow versions older than 2.8.0, as AutoKeras is not compatible.
- If your project emphasizes transparent, understandable model architecture over automated generation without human oversight.
