Not actually lightweight ;)

[panasenco]

The tagline of AIlice is 'lightweight AI agent', and while the code itself is brilliantly minimal, the ailice virtual environment took up 5.8GB of space on my hard drive.

The biggest contributors to the size are the nvidia package at 2.8GB and torch at 1.6GB.

Would it be possible to not depend on these packages, or to make the dependencies optional?

I've also been constantly trying to strip away unnecessary dependencies. Currently, the most ideal approach is to make the default installation independent of transformers and torch. However, at the moment, I'm temporarily constrained by the implementation of the vector database (which is essential for AIlice). I plan to investigate this issue first to see if we can further reduce these dependencies.
