Traceloop auto-instruments your LangChain RAG pipeline, exports spans via OpenTelemetry, and ships ready-made Grafana dashboards. Turn on the built-in Faithfulness and QA Relevancy monitors in the Traceloop UI, import the dashboards, and set a simple alert (e.g., > 5 % flagged spans in 5 min) to catch and reduce hallucinations in production, no custom evaluator code required.

Tokenization, the process of breaking text into smaller units called tokens, forms the foundation of how Large Language Models like BERT and GPT understand and generate human language. This article explores different tokenization algorithms, their applications in Natural Language Processing tasks, common challenges, and how they compare to other text evaluation metrics, highlighting tokenization's crucial role in bridging human and machine understanding.

While Large Language Models (LLMs) are commonly used to evaluate other LLMs' performance, new research shows they produce highly inconsistent scores when rating the same text multiple times, making them unreliable as evaluation tools. The article suggests using established, deterministic metrics like BLEU and ROUGE instead, or implementing statistical methods that account for this scoring variability, to more accurately compare different LLM models and prompts.

OpenLLMetry has been released as an open-source extension to OpenTelemetry, providing observability tools for LLM and AI applications without vendor lock-in, similar to how OpenTelemetry revolutionized cloud observability. The tool offers instrumentations for various LLM platforms (like OpenAI and Anthropic), vector databases, and frameworks, allowing developers to track LLM responses, prompts, and performance metrics while maintaining the flexibility to use any observability platform they choose.
