Thank you so much for sharing the code in colab and github!

Hi Sam, once again the quality of your videos are amazing. I built an extraction using OpenAI functions this weekend to get excellent JSON returned. I have a few scripts that attempt to do this with basic prompting, but they can hallucinate occasionally. As of now, this function concept is working great. Your tip on enum is phenomenal - I hadn’t thought of that. Also, a criticism I have is turbo isn’t quite as solid as davinci3 on its returns. I don’t have api gpt4 yet - I will try that once granted by OpenAI. Anyways, last thing - do you feel running through langchain is even necessary? I have felt the OpenAI function implementation can eliminate langchain for a great deal of what I do -- perhaps a bit more scripting on my part, but eliminates a friction/fail point

You raise a number of key issues here, let me try to address each one. 1. I agree the turbo model is often not as good as Davinci 003 etc. I personally think that is because turbo is a distilled smaller model (but I have no inside knowledge on that) 2. GPT-4 is coming to more people soon. 3. I think for some things LangChain is the right solution and for others not. This week I have worked on a number of things that ping the OpenAI APIs directly just because it was easier for what I was doing. LangChain & Llama Index is still very cool and probably the best ways to go for using data and tools with LLMs, If you can get away without it then that is fine to do

now that’s some clever stuff 👌

Thanks for the explanation. The new features (functions & larger prompt window) of the openAI models are a little bit like you buy a technical device with a lot of buttons but the vendor does only give you an example usage instead of a detailed manual. It would be very helpful if openAI would publish some training data of the models. On the other hand, maybe this try&error attempt creates the new jobs that everybody is talking about ; - )

Thank you for the video. Did some testing today with Kor and Kor seems to work better in my cases. Tested it with a bill with instruction for the customer reference for the bank transfer. With Kor not only do I get the right customer reference (based on the instructions on the bill), but it also calculates the right amount (since no total amount is on the bill). With functions, it only works with tagging (instead of extraction) but it does not calculate the amount. This is also a good example for a "positiv" prompt-injection, since the instruction on how to use the right customer reference was on the bill and got "injected" into the prompt :D

I like Kor and made a video about that in the past, so not surprised it may work better for certain use cases. Be really careful relying on any of the models to calculate correctly, that sounds like it is the kind of thing that could break easily.

@@samwitteveenai Sure, we are not relying on that. I was actually surprised it did calculate the amount. I am currently testing out different ways for data extraction, and that bill actually failed in my banking app (with the photo transfer feature) so I just gave it a try.

Hi Sam, just came across your channel. Pretty cool stuff. I had a query. I saw your video (maybe couple back) where we convert function calling from open ai into Tools and then call it as an agent. Here we call it more like a chain, am thinking multiple functions like multiple tools and chain calls it. Are both techniques equal or is one way better than the other? Cheers

Thank you so much, insightful + notebook. Awesome, quick question, how do you combine it with few shots / icl ? FewshotPromptTemplate ?

Can just add it into the prompt template or yes look at that prompt template.

Looking forward for more projects with open LLMs too. I feel OpenAI is the best no doubt but it's a Supercomputer vs PC fight now and we'd rather have PCs. Just my opinion. Anyway always love your content.

don't worry I haven't given up of OpenSource LLMs. I will make some more vids soon.

I created a terminal using it where it will return the command necessary to do whatever the user asks in plain English it’s pretty prototype like but I actually use it a lot when I forget a terminal command for something.

Thanks agani for sharing Sam! I've got two qns. 1. Is these optimizations why GPT-4 seems to be becoming worse in some other tasks over time? Does it imply OpenAI is focusing more on API usage than Chat usage going forward? 2. On applying few-shot ICL to these functions. What are some of ways/ideas to implement it?

Hey Sam Thanks as always for your great video that's a big work you're doing for the community I am curious to get your thoughts about a potential usage with document summarization and QA. I am currently building a solution like this that will allow you to query your documents and ask them questions or ask the chatbot for summarization or even generation of a copy using a document template etc I was looking to build that with unstructured data and using a faiss or vectordb solution to build a database is there any benefit to use tagging and extraction or can that even be a solution? Thanks in advance for your answer as always

Dear Sam I'm really quite worried that almost the integration is with open ai which is not open source or limited is that means that you can't or langchain can be used only with open ai ? Thanks

@samwitteveenai

LangChain really seems to be OpenAI first and then other models later (though it supports the other models fine as well). The problem is most of the open source models just can't do this kind of task, meaning they don't have the reasoning skills to do it.

how to add examples to the prompet

Hey Sam, follow and love your videos. I am trying to create a bot where I need to extract an entity and pass on to some APIs depending on the question. For example, what's the weather in my area? should respond to which area you reside and if I pass a name that matches in the list, then I can call the API and return the answer. So, problem 1 is to ask user recursively to get complete question and in that process also solve the problem 2 which is to extract the "entity" but matching to what I have in my docs. So, if the person response my home, the bot should ask but which city is your home and if I give a city name that does not exist the bot says it doesn't have the information. I have to do it over multiple types of entities and not just one, say location, date / date range etc. What should be the best way to approach this problem?

@samwitteveenai

11 ай бұрын

This would be more the prompt and serious amount of customizing the prompt. Also you could look at filling a set of slots, so when the slot is still empty the program then asks a direct question (Which city do you live in") and then filter for that slot. Don't think of the OpenAI Functions as being static, you can call with different functions based on what you get back.

Is this available for locally run models yet?

@samwitteveenai

Жыл бұрын

Not yet especially not how they structure the input etc like this. But there might be some things coming soon.

I must be missing something. The use cases you're showing here were already possible using output parsers. What's new here? I've been doing these things for a while now.

@samwitteveenai

11 ай бұрын

This is far more stable than output parsers because the model is fine-tuned to use these functions.

Bro your mic seems to max out at a certain frequency or something? 13:26 or so the word “extract” gets flattened or cut off. It seems to be a sound setting.

Have you tried a microphone isolation shield? Cheaper than doing a whole room of acoustics, and should help a lot with that.

I found the functions a really cool idea but not ready for prime time. It breaks too much still. ChatGPT sometimes ignores them altogether and claims it can't do anything, or even worse it "pretends" to use the function. It calls it but the API doesn't actually pick it up as a function call.
