Description
Start experimenting the generative SUSE-AI chat bot, asking questions on different areas of knowledge or science and possibly analyze the quality of the LLM model response, specific and comparative, checking the answers provided by different LLM models to a same query, using proper quality metrics or tools or methodologies.
Try to define basic guidelines and requirements for quality test automation of AI-generated responses.
First approach of investigation can be based on manual testing: methodologies, findings and data can be useful then to organize valid automated testing.
Goals
- Identify criteria and measuring scales for assessment of a text content.
- Define quality of an answer/text based on defined criteria .
- Identify some knowledge sectors and a proper list of problems/questions per sector.
- Manually run query session and apply evaluation criteria to answers.
- Draft requirements for test automation of AI answers.
Resources
- Announcement of SUSE-AI for Hack Week in Slack
- Openplatform and related 3 LLM models gemma:2b, llama3.1:8b, qwen2.5-coder:3b.
Notes
Foundation models (FMs):
are large deep learning neural networks, trained on massive datasets, that have changed the way data scientists approach machine learning (ML). Rather than develop artificial intelligence (AI) from scratch, data scientists use a foundation model as a starting point to develop ML models that power new applications more quickly and cost-effectively.Large language models (LLMs):
are a category of foundation models pre-trained on immense amounts of data acquiring abilities by learning statistical relationships from vast amounts of text during a self- and semi-supervised training process, making them capable of understanding and generating natural language and other types of content , to perform a wide range of tasks.
LLMs can be used for generative AI (artificial intelligence) to produce content based on input prompts in human language.
Validation of a AI-generated answer is not an easy task to perform, as manually as automated.
An LLM answer text shall contain a given level of informations: correcness, completeness, reasoning description etc.
We shall rely in properly applicable and measurable criteria of validation to get an assessment in a limited amount of time and resources.

Save pytorch models in OCI registries by jguilhermevanz
Description
A prerequisite for running applications in a cloud environment is the presence of a container registry. Another common scenario is users performing machine learning workloads in such environments. However, these types of workloads require dedicated infrastructure to run properly. We can leverage these two facts to help users save resources by storing their machine learning models in OCI registries, similar to how we handle some WebAssembly modules. This approach will save users the resources typically required for a machine learning model repository for the applications they need to run.
Goals
Allow PyTorch users to save and load machine learning models in OCI registries.

Aider is not the right tool for this. It works ok for small changes, but not for complete rewrite from one language to another.
I got better results with direct API use from script.
Research how LLMs could help to Linux developers and/or users by anicka
Description
Large language models like ChatGPT have demonstrated remarkable capabilities across a variety of applications. However, their potential for enhancing the Linux development and user ecosystem remains largely unexplored. This project seeks to bridge that gap by researching practical applications of LLMs to improve workflows in areas such as backporting, packaging, log analysis, system migration, and more. By identifying patterns that LLMs can leverage, we aim to uncover new efficiencies and automation strategies that can benefit developers, maintainers, and end users alike.
Goals
- Evaluate Existing LLM Capabilities: Research and document the current state of LLM usage in open-source and Linux development projects, noting successes and limitations.
- Prototype Tools and Scripts: Develop proof-of-concept scripts or tools that leverage LLMs to perform specific tasks like automated log analysis, assisting with backporting patches, or generating packaging metadata.
- Assess Performance and Reliability: Test the tools' effectiveness on real-world Linux data and analyze their accuracy, speed, and reliability.
- Identify Best Use Cases: Pinpoint which tasks are most suitable for LLM support, distinguishing between high-impact and impractical applications.
- Document Findings and Recommendations: Summarize results with clear documentation and suggest next steps for potential integration or further development.
Resources
- Local LLM Implementations: Access to locally hosted LLMs such as LLaMA, GPT-J, or similar open-source models that can be run and fine-tuned on local hardware.
- Computing Resources: Workstations or servers capable of running LLMs locally, equipped with sufficient GPU power for training and inference.
- Sample Data: Logs, source code, patches, and packaging data from openSUSE or SUSE repositories for model training and testing.
- Public LLMs for Benchmarking: Access to APIs from platforms like OpenAI or Hugging Face for comparative testing and performance assessment.
- Existing NLP Tools: Libraries such as spaCy, Hugging Face Transformers, and PyTorch for building and interacting with local LLMs.
- Technical Documentation: Tutorials and resources focused on setting up and optimizing local LLMs for tasks relevant to Linux development.
- Collaboration: Engagement with community experts and teams experienced in AI and Linux for feedback and joint exploration.

Use local/private LLM for semantic knowledge search by digitaltomm
Description
Use a local LLM, based on SUSE AI (ollama, openwebui) to power geeko search (public instance: https://geeko.port0.org/).
Goals
Build a SUSE internal instance of https://geeko.port0.org/ that can operate on internal resources, crawling confluence.suse.com, gitlab.suse.de, etc.
Resources
Repo: https://github.com/digitaltom/semantic-knowledge-search
Public instance: https://geeko.port0.org/
Results
Internal instance:
I have an internal test instance running which has indexed a couple of internal wiki pages from the SCC team. It's using the ollama (llama3.1:8b) backend of suse-ai.openplatform.suse.com to create embedding vectors for indexed resources and to create a chat response. The semantic search for documents is done with a vector search inside of sqlite, using sqlite-vec.

This task involves responding to customer requests from jira and slack help channels, monitoring production systems and doing small chores. Usually, we have documentation to help the COOTW answer questions and quickly find fixes. Most of these are distributed across github, trello and SUSE Support documentation. The aim of this project is to explore the magic of LLMs and create a conversational bot.
