Abstract

Hyperledger Labs AIFAQ is an LLM ChatBot testable as a Proof-of-Concept. It replies to questions about Hyperledger standard documentation. The current version is a Google Colab Notebook which uses Gradio as GUI. This project proposes an implementation of a standard ChatBot GUI and the deployment of a prototype. Our end goal is to have a more usable system installed on a Cloud Server.

Timeline

June 3 - June 23	Onboarding Understand the project scope and learn about LLM (Large Language Models) review the existing Hyperledger Labs AIFAQ documentation	Done
June 24 - July 5	Understand the project scope and learn about LLM (Large Language Models) research and document the basics of LLM, focusing on how they can be applied to create intelligent ChatBots setup and familiarize with existing codespace	Done
July 8 - July 19	Develop the front-end component of the ChatBot design a user-friendly interface for the ChatBot using JavaScript implement the interface as a functional prototype that can later be integrated with the backend LLM	Done
July 22 - July 26	1st Quarter Evaluation	Done
July 29 - August 9	Understand Cloud Architecture and Deployment research cloud service providers (e.g., AWS, Google Cloud, Azure) and their offerings document the pros and cons of each service with respect to the project's needs and select one for deployment. begin the deployment of the front-end component as a test.	Done
August 12 - August 23	Containerization research and document the basics of container technology (e.g., Docker). create a simple container for the ChatBot's front-end.	Done
August 26 - August 31	Buffer Time & Documentation catch up on documenting the current progress	Done
September 2 - September 6	Midterm Evaluation	Done
September 9 - September 20	Integration & Testing integrate the front-end component with the LLM backend, ensuring they communicate effectively. conduct initial testing and document any issues or bugs.	Done
September 23 - October 4	Cloud Server Deployment finalize the deployment of the ChatBot on the chosen cloud service perform comprehensive testing to ensure functionality and performance standards are met	Done
October 7 - October 11	Buffer Time & Documentation	Done
