Enhancing Compatibility: Upgrading langchain to the latest version to allow support for newer libraries

[arishwin]

Hello everyone,

I've been working with LibreChat in conjunction with @pinecone-database/pinecone, and I've encountered a version compatibility issue that I believe could benefit from community input and possibly lead to an enhancement of langchain versions.

Current Situation:
The langchain versions in this project currently supports up to version 1.x of @pinecone-database/pinecone. However, @pinecone-database/pinecone has released version 2.x, which introduces serverless support. These enhancements are critical for the development of plugins that rely on the latest database functionalities and performance improvements. Adding version 2.x into the project introduces some dependency conflict with the current versions of langchain

Suggestion:
I propose that we consider upgrading langchain to the latest version so that it can support @pinecone-database/pinecone 2.x. This upgrade could provide developers the option to use plugins that support the latest serverless functionalities of Pinecone.

I believe this discussion could pave the way for an enhancement that benefits not only current users but also makes LibreChat more appealing to new adopters by ensuring it supports the latest technologies and standards.

Looking forward to your thoughts and feedback!

Best regards,
Arishwin
