When should I avoid llm-course?

- If you only require a quick introduction to LLMs without deep dive into core components - When you prefer working directly with commercial platforms that provide complete services rather than following detailed steps on building and deploying models yourself through this course's open,DI

When should I avoid P-tuning-v2?

Last GitHub push was 969 days ago (dormant maintenance, Nov 16, 2023). Validate activity before betting a new project on P-tuning-v2. 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. Model Training: Try prompting and RAG first; fine-tuning is the answer to style/format, not missing knowledge.
