Cần so sánh chi phí thực tế khi scale traffic giữa DigitalOcean và Railway. Hiện đang dùng gói $12/mo (2GB RAM/1vCPU) nhưng plan Hobby Railway ($5/mo) có 8GB RAM/8vCPU. Tuy nhiên, Railway tính theo usage, nên không biết liệu upgrade DO hay chuyển sang Railway có hiệu quả hơn? #DigitalOcean #Railway #CloudComparison #DevOps #CostEfficiency #SoSanhDienToan #PhanTichChiPhi #PhatTrienUngDung

93% of GPT-4 performance at 1/4 cost: LLM routing with weak bandit feedback

Adaptive LLM Routing under Budget Constraints

Large Language Models (LLMs) have revolutionized natural language processing, but their varying capabilities and costs pose challenges in practical applications. LLM routing addresses this by dynamically selecting the most suitable LLM for each query/task. Previous approaches treat this as a supervised learning problem, assuming complete knowledge of optimal query-LLM pairings. However, real-world scenarios lack such comprehensive mappings and face evolving user queries. We thus propose to study LLM routing as a contextual bandit problem, enabling adaptive decision-making using bandit feedback without requiring exhaustive inference across all LLMs for all queries (in contrast to supervised routing). To address this problem, we develop a shared embedding space for queries and LLMs, where query and LLM embeddings are aligned to reflect their affinity. This space is initially learned from offline human preference data and refined through online bandit feedback. We instantiate this idea through Preference-prior Informed Linucb fOr adaptive rouTing (PILOT), a novel extension of LinUCB. To handle diverse user budgets for model routing, we introduce an online cost policy modeled as a multi-choice knapsack problem, ensuring resource-efficient routing.
