When NOT to use llm

Constraint-first guidance from category fit and live maintenance signals - not marketing copy.

  • - If you require real-time visual feedback or a graphical interface for interacting with language models, as llm is strictly command-line-based.
  • - If your primary focus is on model training rather than inference or serving, since llm is aimed at accessing and using pre-trained models.
