Dialektik

Merge. Synthesize. Create. Dialektik generates new content by fusing ideas from diverse sources, revealing unexpected insights and perspectives through a dialectical process.

Features

• Loads and processes datasets from multiple sources
• Summarizes text into concise bullet points
• Performs semantic search for topic-based content selection
• Generates thesis, antithesis, and synthesis from summarized content
• Uses phi-3-vision-mlx for text generation and embeddings

Requirements

• Python 3.8+
• datasets
• huggingface_hub
• phi_3_vision_mlx
• mlx
• fire

Installation

To install Dialektik with all required dependencies:

pip install dialektik

Note: Make sure you have the necessary system requirements to run phi-3-vision-mlx and mlx.

Usage

Command Line Interface

Dialektik can be used from the command line after installation. Here are some example usages:

1. Generate a synthesis with default settings:

   python dialektik.py
   

2. Specify a topic for semantic search:

   python dialektik.py --topic "AI agents"
   

3. Specify sources and exclude certain terms:

   python dialektik.py --list_source arxiv --list_exclude MIRI "Machine Intelligence Research Institute"
   

4. Set the number of books and bullet points per book:

   python dialektik.py --num_book 5 --per_book 4
   

5. Use a different language model via API:

   python dialektik.py --llm_model "mistralai/Mistral-Nemo-Instruct-2407"
   

6. For a full list of options, use:

   python dialektik.py --help
   

Python API

You can also use Dialektik in your Python scripts:

from dialektik import synthesize

# Generate a synthesis with default settings
thesis, antithesis, synthesis = synthesize()

# Customize the synthesis process
output = synthesize(
   topic="AI agents",
   list_source=['arxiv'],
   list_exclude=['MIRI', 'Machine Intelligence Research Institute'],
   num_book=3,
   per_book=3
)

Accessing the Dataset

The default dataset at 'JosefAlbers/StampyAI-alignment-research-dataset' is publicly available. You don't need to set up any environment variables to use dialektik with this dataset.

Using Custom Datasets

If you want to use your own dataset:

1. Prepare your dataset according to the required format.
2. Modify the PATH_DS variable in the code to point to your dataset.
3. If your dataset is private or requires authentication, set up the following environment variables:
   • HF_WRITE_TOKEN: Hugging Face write token (for pushing datasets)
   • HF_READ_TOKEN: Hugging Face read token (for accessing private datasets)

Customizing the Model

Dialektik now uses phi-3-vision-mlx for text generation and embeddings. This model is not easily swappable, but you can modify the pv.load() and pv.generate() calls in the code if you need to use a different model.

Output

The synthesize() function generates three outputs:

1. Thesis: An article exploring the main themes and insights from the selected sources.
2. Antithesis: A text presenting alternative perspectives and counterarguments to the thesis.
3. Synthesis: A reconciliation of the thesis and antithesis, presenting a new, unified viewpoint.

All outputs are saved in the 'syntheses' folder with timestamps for easy reference.
