Previous to this change we relied on explicit loading for a files in Discourse AI.
This had a few downsides:
- Busywork whenever you add a file (an extra require relative)
- We were not keeping to conventions internally ... some places were OpenAI others are OpenAi
- Autoloader did not work which lead to lots of full application broken reloads when developing.
This moves all of DiscourseAI into a Zeitwerk compatible structure.
It also leaves some minimal amount of manual loading (automation - which is loading into an existing namespace that may or may not be there)
To avoid needing /lib/discourse_ai/... we mount a namespace thus we are able to keep /lib pointed at ::DiscourseAi
Various files were renamed to get around zeitwerk rules and minimize usage of custom inflections
Though we can get custom inflections to work it is not worth it, will require a Discourse core patch which means we create a hard dependency.
* DEV: One LLM abstraction to rule them all
* REFACTOR: HyDE search uses new LLM abstraction
* REFACTOR: Summarization uses the LLM abstraction
* Updated documentation and made small fixes. Remove Bedrock claude-2 restriction
* DEV: Better strategies for summarization
The strategy responsibility needs to be "Given a collection of texts, I know how to summarize them most efficiently, using the minimum amount of requests and maximizing token usage".
There are different token limits for each model, so it all boils down to two different strategies:
Fold all these texts into a single one, doing the summarization in chunks, and then build a summary from those.
Build it by combining texts in a single prompt, and truncate it according to your token limits.
While the latter is less than ideal, we need it for "bart-large-cnn-samsum" and "flan-t5-base-samsum", both with low limits. The rest will rely on folding.
* Expose summarized chunks to users
* DEV: Remove the summarization feature
Instead, we'll register summarization implementations for OpenAI, Anthropic, and Discourse AI using the API defined in discourse/discourse#21813.
Core and chat will implement features on top of these implementations instead of this plugin extending them.
* Register instances that contain the model, requiring less site settings
