Install Langchain from Github
What is LangChain?
LangChain is an innovative library designed to amplify the potential of Large Language Models (LLMs). With the rise of LLMs, the possibilities for developers are expanding, but LangChain takes it to the next level by enabling the integration of LLMs with other computational and knowledge sources. It doesn’t just facilitate the isolated usage of LLMs; rather, it extends their capabilities to a more complex and dynamic level.
Some Applications Made Possible by LangChain:
- Question Answering over Specific Documents: LangChain allows you to structure question-answering over particular databases such as Notion.
- Chatbots: Create engaging chatbots.
- Agents with Integrations: Combine the power of LLMs like ChatGPT with tools like WolframAlpha to create intelligent agents.
