Decision brief
FastChat is an open-source platform for training, serving, and evaluating large language models, including Vicuna, and supports Chatbot Arena, a platform for LLM evaluations with human feedback.
Good fit when
- When you need a platform that supports both training and evaluation of large language models, such as Vicuna, and you want to leverage human feedback for model evaluation.
- If you require a distributed multi-model serving system with a web UI and OpenAI-compatible RESTful APIs for deploying and serving multiple LLMs.
Avoid when
- If you are looking for a platform that focuses solely on model training without serving or evaluation capabilities, FastChat offers a comprehensive suite that might be more than you need.
- If your project does not require human feedback for model evaluation, FastChat's integration with Chatbot Arena might be an unnecessary feature.
