Calista Research LLMs FAQs

Question 1

What is Calista Research LLMs?

Accepted Answer

Calista Research LLMs enables collaboration between on-device and cloud language models. It reduces cloud costs by processing long contexts locally, maintaining quality, and offers streaming output.

Question 2

How does Calista Research LLMs reduce cloud costs?

Accepted Answer

By processing long contexts locally using on-device models (like those run by Ollama or Tokasaurus), Calista Research LLMs minimizes the amount of data sent to more expensive cloud-based LLMs.

Question 3

Which local and cloud LLM providers are supported?

Accepted Answer

Calista Research LLMs is compatible with Ollama and Tokasaurus for running local models, and it supports OpenAI and TogetherAI API keys for accessing cloud models.

Question 4

Does Calista Research LLMs offer streaming output?

Accepted Answer

Yes, Calista Research LLMs offers streaming output with custom callback functions, allowing you to see results in real-time and control how they are displayed.

Question 5

What is the 'Minions' protocol?

Accepted Answer

Minions is a communication protocol that allows smaller, on-device models to collaborate with larger, frontier models in the cloud. It helps reduce cloud costs without significantly impacting quality.
