Build your own open-source ChatGPT with Llama 2 and Chainlit

This post details the integration of Llama 2 with Chainlit on the Baseten platform to create an open-source ChatGPT-like interface. It covers obtaining Llama 2 access, deploying the model on Baseten, setting up Chainlit with Baseten API keys and model version IDs, and implementing key chatbot features: using conversation history, streaming model output by setting `stream=True` and `max_new_tokens=4096` in the Baseten API request, and stripping unwanted characters like '[/INST]' from the streamed output by buffering tokens.
