TypeGPT: LLM Interaction from Any Text Field

TypeGPT is a Python application enabling seamless interaction with LLM models from any text field in your operating system using keyboard shortcuts.

Key Features:

Invoke LLM models (ChatGPT, Google Gemini, Claude, Llama3) from any text input field across your system using simple keyboard shortcuts.
Clipboard integration for handling larger text inputs and image pasting.
Screenshot capability to capture and include images in queries.
Customizable system prompt and model versions to tailor AI behavior and responses.
Installation via provided shell scripts and execution in the background for seamless operation.
Flexible usage with commands like /ask, /see, /stop, and model switching options (/chatgpt, /gemini, /claude, /llama3).

Nerve is a tool for creating stateful LLM agents capable of autonomous planning and execution of tasks without coding.

Key Features:

Creates agents that autonomously plan and execute steps to complete user-defined tasks. It dynamically updates the system prompt with new information, making agents stateful across multiple inferences.
Provides a standard library of actions for agents, including goal identification, plan creation and revision, and memory management.
Agents are defined using YAML templates, allowing customization for various tasks without coding.
Integrates with ollama, groq, OpenAI, and Fireworks APIs.
Runs as a single static binary or Docker container, offering efficiency and memory safety without heavy runtime requirements.

A framework that leverages Multimodal Large Language Models (MLLM) to detect non-crash functional bugs in mobile app GUIs.
It extracts GUI text information, aligns it with screenshots, and uses this vision prompt to enable MLLM to understand GUI context.
The system employs a function-aware explorer for deeper GUI exploration and a logic-aware bug detector that segments exploration history for bug detection.
Evaluation on three datasets shows excellent performance compared to 10 baselines, identifying 29 new bugs on Google Play, with 19 confirmed and fixed.

An evaluation of LLMs with over 1 billion parameters on code review generation, commit message generation, and just-in-time comment update tasks.
Performance improved with examples, but more examples didn't always yield better results. LoRA-tuned LLMs showed comparable performance to state-of-the-art small pre-trained models.
Llama 2 and Code Llama families consistently performed best, outperforming small pre-trained models on comment-only changes and performing comparably on other code changes.
