LLM Streaming and Interruption

Demonstrates real-time LLM response streaming with user interrupt capability.

Features

• Real-time display of LLM responses as they're generated
• User interrupt with ENTER key at any time

Run It

pip install -r requirements.txt
python main.py

How It Works

StreamNode:

1. Creates interrupt listener thread
2. Fetches content chunks from LLM
3. Displays chunks in real-time
4. Handles user interruption

API Key

By default, demo uses fake streaming responses. To use real OpenAI streaming:

1. Edit main.py to replace the fake_stream_llm with stream_llm:

# Change this line:
chunks = fake_stream_llm(prompt)
# To this:
chunks = stream_llm(prompt)

2. Make sure your OpenAI API key is set:

export OPENAI_API_KEY="your-api-key-here"
