Your delivery & content are really amazing... Great work!!

It’s using Celsius because you told it to default to what is used in *your* location - not the location you’re asking about.

He's back! 🤩 and I was just working on function calls too!

It could be that its inferring your location rather than the location in input. Try tweaking the description in the function for that parameter. Description plays important role in functions

could be a dumb question, but why are we not seeing an actual temperature value in the response? is it possible to get that also?

[matemarschalko]

Interestingly, the assistant seems to just use the function output almost "as is". I'm unable to get the assistant to use the function output as context only and focus on the users actual question...

Example: my function returns all the information about a property, and the assistant seems to just output the whole block of information instead of using it as a context/knowledge base to answer the users question. Nothing I put in the system message affects how the assistant uses the information from the function call.

Any idea how this could be achieved?

They need to change the cost for tokens within Functions, they did make it cheaper for the 4k version but reading code can be a lot of tokens.

Great demo as always. Feels like OpenAI's name "Chat GPT Functions" is a little misleading. But I am not sure I can come up with a name 😂.But very cool functionality.

Can you discuss how to do this from scratch without the python library? What are the API calls?

Thanks for the informative video. I want to build a chatbot for my mobile application that helps users in health management. The purpose would be simply to help users with app navigation and education. I don't have any data and all tables are there in phpMyadmin. I want to use these tools like langchain, openAI and LLM's to develop my chatbot. Any help and guidance would be much appreciated.

Regards

I have been using the chat completion api to get gpt-3.5-turbo to output JSON strings with the aspect, sentiment and text segment of product reviews, which I then use to build dataframes and make aspect based sentiment analysis plots and stats. I just send it 5 examples of user/assistant answer/response as a prompt. I wonder if using this would make the outputs more reliable/accurate?

I want to understand what is the best way to conduct aspect based sentiment analysis using GPT models with openai api.

Can you tell me how can i make chatbot for sending email i am bit confused

[vedarutvija]

Can you please do the same but without open ai api and the output should also be in natural language..

[aditya_p_]

What is the alternative thing available in langchain

[startupbug]

Chat response 404 coming hence not able to move forward??

All these months later and I still cant get gpt4 api. I think openai knows I secretly hate them.
