Thanks for the insights.

I wonder if one needs even LlamaIndex?

From their site:

>Storing context in an easy-to-access format for prompt insertion.

>Dealing with prompt limitations (e.g. 4096 tokens for Davinci) when context is too big.

>Dealing with text splitting.

Not sure if it isn't easier to roll one's own for that...?

I know a thing or two about the math behind LLMs and all this software build around a few core ideas just seems to be a lot of overkill...

When mentioning about PGVevtor, did you refer to this repo or is there a class within LangChain that has the same name? https://github.com/pgvector/pgvector
