Reposted by Rémi.txt @dottxtai.bsky.social · 13/07/2025We changed the way we handle multimodal inputs in Outlines. Most libraries will give the prompt a special role, separate it from the other inputs. We don’t anymore. 061
Reposted by RémiClelia Astra Bertelli @cle-does-things.bsky.social · 12/07/2025📝 I have been meaning to write this for a while now, but after reading @remilouf.bsky.social's post on the potential of structured generation for LLMs and a post on SerDes debt deriving from Pydantic usage, I decided I should not wait any longer. So here is my new blog post: 121

Reposted by Rémi.txt @dottxtai.bsky.social · 11/12/2024Outlines 0.1.9 release is out! Small release, but some highlights: - First contribution by @chicham! - You can now use enums in outlines.generate.choice - Compilation time improvements. - Using the rust-native JSON-schema to regex, rather than the Python implementation 0102
Reposted by RémiChris McMaster @rheumai.com · 07/12/2024This is actually good to show skeptics of structured generation @dottxtai.bsky.social. Demonstrates very clearly that you can stop the model from fighting the constraints by telling it how it’s constrained, even if those constraints might seem absurd (like only using words from the King James Bible) 074
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 28/11/2024HF has done, and keeps doing, a lot of good in the AI ecosystem. I’ll die on this hill. 2403
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 28/11/2024More insults under an apology post on Bluesky than under any outrageous post on Twitter. Be the change you want to see in the world or something like that. 0161

Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 28/11/2024Looking at the comments of this one, I think this is actually the Bad Place 141
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 27/11/2024The comments on this are unnecessarily hateful. I thought this place was better. 3120
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 24/11/2024Give @dottxtai.bsky.social a follow for quality structured generation content! 042
Reposted by Rémi.txt @dottxtai.bsky.social · 21/11/2024A new paper, "Let Me Speak Freely" has been spreading rumors that structured generation hurts LLM evaluation performance. Well, we've taken a look and found serious issue in this paper, and shown, once again, that structured generation *improves* evaluation performance! 412323
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 22/11/2024The "Let Me Speak Freely" got way too much traction too easily, despite a few serious issues. Well aware of Brandolini's law we published a thorough rebuttal of the main conclusion, highlighted the key methodological flaws and taught a few things in the process. Hope you enjoy it! 171
Reposted by Rémi.txt @dottxtai.bsky.social · 21/11/2024Our new blog post is out! @willkurt.bsky.social provides a rebuttal for a reasonably well known paper which concluded that structured generation with LLMs always resulted in worse performance. We do not find the same thing. blog.dottxt.co/say-what-you... 1137

Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 20/11/2024👋 New followers I’m Rémi, co-founder and CEO of @dottxtai.bsky.social. We do structured generation with LLM, which means we are able to enforce constraints on the output (regex, JSON Schema, Grammar) during inference time. It’s very cool. dottxt.codottxt.codottxt - make ai speak computer 1212
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 20/11/2024I wake up every day with 100 new followers now. The Starter Packs were a brilliant idea ✨ 240

Reposted by RémiJoey Rudoler @jrudoler.bsky.social · 11/11/2024(Reposting from X) I did a tiny side project: a program that automatically generates a properly formatted .ics file from a text description (e.g. copy/paste an email) using an LLM, and imports it to your favorite calendar app! Structured generation is cool -- shoutout @remilouf.bsky.social and .txt 252
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 07/11/2024📊 One weird trick to parse earnings reports! Wall Street analysts HATE this! Use LLMs to convert messy SEC filings into clean CSV data using structured generation. The one weird trick? Convert your HTML to markdown + use Outlines. Link below 👇 140
Rémi @remilouf.bsky.social · 05/11/2024To celebrate the release of @huggingface.bsky.social’s new SmolLM2 series of models we created a fun demo: the Bunny B1. The Bunny B1 shows how a small device using a SmolLM2 model + Outlines can consistently map natural language requests to the correct app! Check it out in this gif! 150
Reposted by RémiDaniel van Strien @danielvanstrien.bsky.social · 01/11/2024Outlines is a great library for structured generation for LLMs/VLMs, which is really helpful for many use cases. @remilouf.bsky.social and the team are working towards a 1.0.0 release with an API that looks very nice, in my opinion. 071
Reposted by RémiKaren Ullrich (s/h) @karen-ullrich.bsky.social · 30/10/2024Phan et al, found a method to mitigate some of the tokenization problems Karpathy mentioned by projecting tokens into byte space. The key to their method is to develop a map between statistically equivalent token and byte-level models. 031
