I’m excited to introduce LLM Sentinel , my project for the NVIDIA AI Generative AI Agents Developer Contest, hosted by NVIDIA and LangChain (https://www.nvidia.com/en-us/ai-data-science/generative-ai/developer-contest-with-langchain/). This contest is a remarkable opportunity to advance generative AI-powered applications using cutting-edge NVIDIA and LangChain technologies.

With a background in ML/AI since my PhD studies at Purdue University in the late 2000s, I’ve witnessed rapid advancements in both hardware and software. While LLM chatbots excel at providing Q&A, they often lack the ability to discern and avoid answering unethical questions.

LLM Sebtinel addresses this issue by creating a safer chatbot using the open-sourced llama3:70b model, integrated with NeMo Guardrails and LangChain, and featuring a user-friendly Gradio UI. The chatbot is designed to deny answering questions on sensitive topics such as Illegal Activity, Hate Speech, Malware Generation, Physical Harm, Economic Harm, Fraud, Pornography, Political Lobbying, Privacy Violence, Legal Opinion, Financial Advice, Health Consultation, and Government Decision.

NeMo Guardrails enforce these restrictions through a YAML configuration file, while LangChain manages permissible inputs via a structured prompt template, utilizing Ollama for model backend interaction. The Gradio UI ensures an interactive user experience, adhering to safety and ethical standards. This setup guarantees secure and responsible AI interactions.
