Front-window bakery material. Catches the eye, delivers the goods.
Summary
Semlib is a Python library that enables building data processing and analysis pipelines using natural language descriptions instead of code. It provides functional programming primitives like map, reduce, sort, and filter that are implemented through LLM prompting, handling complexities such as prompting strategies, parsing, concurrency control, caching, and cost tracking automatically.
Key quotes
· 3 pulledSemlib provides, as building blocks, familiar functional programming primitives like map, reduce, sort, and filter, but with a twist: Semlib's implementation of these operations are programmed with natural language descriptions rather than code.
Under the hood, Semlib handles complexities such as prompting, parsing, concurrency control, caching, and cost tracking.
Build data processing and data analysis pipelines that leverage the power of large language models (LLMs).
