The context and the LLM you use should be separate.

  • The context and the LLM you use should be separate.[mz]
    • If your context is locked to one model then you can't swap them out, and then you can't try other ones
      • That leads to a strong centralizing force.
    • The risk of a monopoly of models and services: a single world view that everyone is pulled towards, intentionally or unintentionally.
    • Why might context portability happen now when it didn't before?
      • LLMs are the most intimate technology ever, the stakes have never been higher.
      • The hard part of interoperability is coordinating on schemas, but that problem evaporates with LLMs.
