Installation

This guide provides detailed instructions for setting up your development environment, configuring LLMs, and integrating various tools necessary for your project.

Python version

We recommend using python 3.10.13

Install with Conda

We recommend installing using Conda:

conda env create -f environment_dev.yml
conda activate AutoPrompt

Install with pip

Install using pip directly:

pip install -r requirements.txt

Install with pipenv

Install using pipenv:

pip install pipenv
pipenv sync

Configure your LLM

Set your OpenAI API key in the configuration file config/llm_env.yml. For assistance locating your API key, visit this link.

  • For LLM, we recommend using OpenAI's GPT-4. Alternatively, configure Azure by setting llm type in config/config_default.yml to "Azure" and specifying the key in config/llm_env.yml. Our system also supports various LLMs, including open source models, through Langchain Pipeline. Change the llm type to "HuggingFacePipeline" and specify the model ID in the llm name field.

  • Configure your Predictor. We employ a predictor to estimate prompt performance. The default predictor LLM is GPT-3.5. Configuration is located in the predictor section of config/config_default.yml.

Configure Human-in-the-Loop Annotator

Our pipeline incorporates a human-in-the-loop annotation process using Argilla. Follow these steps to set it up:

  1. Set Up Argilla Server and UI: Follow the instructions to install and set up an Argilla server and user interface.

  2. Quick Installation Option: For a faster setup, we recommend deploying Argilla on a Hugging Face space.

  3. Configure API Settings: After setting up the server, modify the api_url and api_key in the config/config_default.yml file. For instance, if using the recommended Hugging Face space, your API URL should be formatted as follows: api_url: 'https://<your-argilla-space-name>.hf.space'.

Configure LLM Annotator

To specify an LLM as the annotation tool in your pipeline, update the annotator section in the config/config_default.yml file as follows:

annotator:
    method: 'llm'
    config:
        llm:
            type: 'OpenAI'
            name: 'gpt-4-1106-preview'
        instruction:
            'Assess whether the text contains a harmful topic. 
            Answer Yes if it does and No otherwise.'
        num_workers: 5
        prompt: 'prompts/predictor_completion/prediction.prompt'
        mini_batch_size: 1
        mode: 'annotation'

We recommend using a robust LLM, like GPT-4, for annotation purposes. In the instruction field, you specify the task instructions for the annotation. The mini_batch_size field determines the number of samples processed in a single annotation pass, allowing you to balance efficiency with LLM token usage.

Monitoring: Weights and Biases Setup

To effectively track your optimization process, including metrics like score, prompts instances, and error analysis across iterations, we recommend using Weights and Biases.

  1. Sign Up for Weights and Biases: Visit their website and follow the instructions to create an account.

  2. Enable wandb in Your Configuration: In your project's config/config_default.yml file, set use_wandb to True to activate wandb support.
