03ENGINEERING & RESOURCES

LLM STEER - LIBRARY FOR CONTROLLING GENERATION

LLM Steer is a library for controlling language model generation with sentiment vectors. This means you can embed a concept like “thoughtful” and make the generation more thoughtful. It tends to work better than prompting in general, but more study is needed.
