Langchain abstracts too much and you can't really see what's going on or control the flow of data with real precision. They are fixing that though and now you have much better visibility into what's being inferred. I think Langchain is pretty useful though, especially if you want to integrate with something quickly.

I think this is the reasonable answer. Langchain gets a lot of derision and rightly so but it does have uses for prototyping. It’s also a good resource for learning the landscape specifically because of the integrations. I haven’t used it in a while so I’m not familiar with the most recent updates.
Thanks for explaining.
