Using local models
The popularity of projects like PrivateGPT, llama.cpp, GPT4All, and llamafile underscore the importance of running LLMs locally.
LangChain has integrations with many open-source LLMs that can be run locally.
See here for setup instructions for these LLMs.
For example, here we show how to run GPT4All or LLaMA2 locally (e.g., on your laptop) using local embeddings and a local LLM.
Document Loading
First, install packages needed for local embeddings and vector storage.
%pip install --upgrade --quiet langchain langchain-community langchainhub gpt4all langchain-chroma
Load and split an example document.
We'll use a blog post on agents as an example.
from langchain_community.document_loaders import WebBaseLoader
from langchain_text_splitters import RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter
loader = WebBaseLoader("https://lilianweng.github.io/posts/2023-06-23-agent/")
data = loader.load()
text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=500, chunk_overlap=0)
all_splits = text_splitter.split_documents(data)
API Reference:
Next, the below steps will download the GPT4All embeddings locally (if you don't already have them).
from langchain_chroma import Chroma
from langchain_community.embeddings import GPT4AllEmbeddings
vectorstore = Chroma.from_documents(documents=all_splits, embedding=GPT4AllEmbeddings())
API Reference:
Test similarity search is working with our local embeddings.
question = "What are the approaches to Task Decomposition?"
docs = vectorstore.similarity_search(question)
len(docs)

docs[0]
Document(page_content='Task decomposition can be done (1) by LLM with simple prompting like "Steps for XYZ.\\n1.", "What are the subgoals for achieving XYZ?", (2) by using task-specific instructions; e.g. "Write a story outline." for writing a novel, or (3) with human inputs.', metadata={'description': 'Building agents with LLM (large language model) as its core controller is a cool concept.

Model
LLaMA2
Note: new versions of llama-cpp-python use GGUF model files (see here).
If you have an existing GGML model, see here for instructions for conversion for GGUF.
And / or, you can download a GGUF converted model (e.g., here).
Finally, as noted in detail here install llama-cpp-python
%pip install --upgrade --quiet llama-cpp-python
To enable use of GPU on Apple Silicon, follow the steps here to use the Python binding with Metal support.
In particular, ensure that conda is using the correct virtual environment that you created (miniforge3).
E.g., for me:
conda activate /Users/rlm/miniforge3/envs/llama
With this confirmed:
! CMAKE_ARGS="-DLLAMA_METAL=on" FORCE_CMAKE=1 /Users/rlm/miniforge3/envs/llama/bin/pip install -U llama-cpp-python --no-cache-dir
from langchain_community.llms import LlamaCpp
API Reference:
Setting model parameters as noted in the llama.cpp docs.
n_gpu_layers = 1 # Metal set to 1 is enough.
n_batch = 512 # Should be between 1 and n_ctx, consider the amount of RAM of your Apple Silicon Chip.
# Make sure the model path is correct for your system!
llm = LlamaCpp(
model_path="/Users/rlm/Desktop/Code/llama.cpp/models/llama-2-13b-chat.ggufv3.q4_0.bin",
n_gpu_layers=n_gpu_layers,
n_batch=n_batch,
n_ctx=2048,
f16_kv=True, # MUST set to True, otherwise you will run into problem after a couple of calls
verbose=True,
)
Note that these indicate that Metal was enabled properly:

GPT4All
Similarly, we can use GPT4All.
Download the GPT4All model binary.
The Model Explorer on the GPT4All is a great way to choose and download a model.
Then, specify the path that you downloaded to to.
E.g., for me, the model lives here:
/Users/rlm/Desktop/Code/gpt4all/models/nous-hermes-13b.ggmlv3.q4_0.bin
from langchain_community.llms import GPT4All
gpt4all = GPT4All(
model="/Users/rlm/Desktop/Code/gpt4all/models/nous-hermes-13b.ggmlv3.q4_0.bin",
max_tokens=2048,
)
API Reference:
llamafile
One of the simplest ways to run an LLM locally is using a llamafile. All you need to do is:
1) Download a llamafile from HuggingFace 2) Make the file executable 3) Run the file
llamafiles bundle model weights and a specially-compiled version of llama.cpp into a single file that can run on most computers without any additional dependencies. They also come with an embedded inference server that provides an API for interacting with your model.
Here's a simple bash script that shows all 3 setup steps:
# Download a llamafile from HuggingFace
wget https://huggingface.co/jartine/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0-GGUF/resolve/main/TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0.Q5_K_M.llamafile
# Make the file executable. On Windows, instead just rename the file to end in ".exe".
chmod +x TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0.Q5_K_M.llamafile
# Start the model server. Listens at http://localhost:8080 by default.
./TinyLlama-1.1B-Chat-v1.0.Q5_K_M.llamafile --server --nobrowser
After you run the above setup steps, you can interact with the model via LangChain:
from langchain_community.llms.llamafile import Llamafile
llamafile = Llamafile()
llamafile.invoke("Here is my grandmother's beloved recipe for spaghetti and meatballs:")
API Reference:
'\n-1 1/2 (8 oz. Pounds) ground beef, browned and cooked until no longer pink\n-3 cups whole wheat spaghetti\n-4 (10 oz) cans diced tomatoes with garlic and basil\n-2 eggs, beaten\n-1 cup grated parmesan cheese\n-1/2 teaspoon salt\n-1/4 teaspoon black pepper\n-1 cup breadcrumbs (16 oz)\n-2 tablespoons olive oil\n\nInstructions:\n1. Cook spaghetti according to package directions. Drain and set aside.\n2. In a large skillet, brown ground beef over medium heat until no longer pink. Drain any excess grease.\n3. Stir in diced tomatoes with garlic and basil, and season with salt and pepper. Cook for 5 to 7 minutes or until sauce is heated through. Set aside.\n4. In a large bowl, beat eggs with a fork or whisk until fluffy. Add cheese, salt, and black pepper. Set aside.\n5. In another bowl, combine breadcrumbs and olive oil. Dip each spaghetti into the egg mixture and then coat in the breadcrumb mixture. Place on baking sheet lined with parchment paper to prevent sticking. Repeat until all spaghetti are coated.\n6. Heat oven to 375 degrees. Bake for 18 to 20 minutes, or until lightly golden brown.\n7. Serve hot with meatballs and sauce on the side. Enjoy!'
Using in a chain
We can create a summarization chain with either model by passing in the retrieved docs and a simple prompt.
It formats the prompt template using the input key values provided and passes the formatted string to GPT4All, LLama-V2, or another specified LLM.
from langchain_core.output_parsers import StrOutputParser
from langchain_core.prompts import PromptTemplate
# Prompt
prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(
"Summarize the main themes in these retrieved docs: {docs}"
)
# Chain
def format_docs(docs):
return "\n\n".join(doc.page_content for doc in docs)
chain = {"docs": format_docs} | prompt | llm | StrOutputParser()
# Run
question = "What are the approaches to Task Decomposition?"
docs = vectorstore.similarity_search(question)
chain.invoke(docs)
API Reference:
Llama.generate: prefix-match hit
``````output
Based on the retrieved documents, the main themes are:
1. Task decomposition: The ability to break down complex tasks into smaller subtasks, which can be handled by an LLM or other components of the agent system.
2. LLM as the core controller: The use of a large language model (LLM) as the primary controller of an autonomous agent system, complemented by other key components such as a knowledge graph and a planner.
3. Potentiality of LLM: The idea that LLMs have the potential to be used as powerful general problem solvers, not just for generating well-written copies but also for solving complex tasks and achieving human-like intelligence.
4. Challenges in long-term planning: The challenges in planning over a lengthy history and effectively exploring the solution space, which are important limitations of current LLM-based autonomous agent systems.

Q&A
We can also use the LangChain Prompt Hub to store and fetch prompts that are model-specific.
Let's try with a default RAG prompt, here.
from langchain import hub
rag_prompt = hub.pull("rlm/rag-prompt")
rag_prompt.messages
[HumanMessagePromptTemplate(prompt=PromptTemplate(input_variables=['context', 'question'], template="You are an assistant for question-answering tasks.

Q&A with retrieval
Instead of manually passing in docs, we can automatically retrieve them from our vector store based on the user question.
This will use a QA default prompt (shown here) and will retrieve from the vectorDB.
retriever = vectorstore.as_retriever()
qa_chain = (
{"context": retriever | format_docs, "question": RunnablePassthrough()}
| rag_prompt

Sure! Based on the context, here's my answer to your:
There are several to task,:
1. LLM-based with simple prompting, such as "Steps for XYZ" or "What are the subgoals for achieving XYZ?"
2. Task-specific, like "Write a story outline" for writing a novel.
3. Human inputs to guide the process.
These can be used to decompose complex tasks into smaller, more manageable subtasks, which can help improve the and effectiveness of task. However, long-term and task can being due to the need to plan over a lengthy history and explore the space., LLMs may to adjust plans when faced with errors, making them less robust to human learners who can learn from trial and error.
