LLM 0.32a0 is a major backwards-compatible refactor
LLM 0.32a0 is an alpha release of the LLM Python library and CLI tool that introduces a major backwards-compatible refactor to better support diverse input and output types in modern language models. The update shifts from a simple prompt-response model to one that supports sequences of messages and streaming responses with multiple content types. These changes aim to align the library with current LLM capabilities such as multi-turn conversations, structured outputs, and multimodal processing.
