An AI developer is exploring strategies to mitigate downtime and unreliability in applications that depend on large language models (LLMs). The core challenge lies in managing multiple LLM providers, as each has distinct APIs, response formats, and failure modes. The developer aims to create an intermediary layer that abstracts these differences, allowing applications to seamlessly switch between providers when one becomes unavailable or experiences issues. This approach treats LLMs as potentially unreliable dependencies, similar to how databases and servers have been managed for years. AI
