The motivation for building simpleaichat was indeed a direct reaction to the frustrations of using LangChain, with a Hacker News thread full of similar complaints being the primary catalyst for development: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=35820931
This package isn't trying to ride the AI hype wagon for venture capital as often said on AI submissions on HN: it's to fill an actual demand, and one I personally needed even if no one else uses simpleaichat.
There's still a lot of work that needs to be done with the package (it's missing important demos such as working with embedding vectors, which is a separate project I have in mind born out of annoyance) but I'll be putting forth the time on it.
Great. I hate the Langchain's author avatar and the documentation with a passion.
The documentation failed at explain the "terms" being used. What's an agent ? What does "langchain" mean ? Some minimal example that works without little efforts ? .. Nothing's there.
The feeling is that, he doesn't respect software engineer who's new to AI to some extend.
