LANGCHAIN — Can GPT-3 be Used for Chat Over Your Data?
Computers are good at following instructions, but not at reading your mind. — Donald Knuth
ChatGPT Over Your Data
ChatGPT has gained popularity for general purpose knowledge, but it’s limited to pre-2021 internet data. This tutorial demonstrates how to set up your version of ChatGPT over a specific corpus of data. Let’s dive into the high-level walkthrough and the detailed steps for ingestion of data and querying of data.
High Level Walkthrough
Ingestion of Data
The ingestion process includes several steps to prepare the data for the chatbot:
- Load Data: Load data into a standard format using LangChain Document object.
loader = UnstructuredFileLoader("state_of_the_union.txt")
raw_documents = loader.load()- Split Text: Break the loaded text into smaller chunks for efficient processing.
text_splitter = RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter()
documents = text_splitter.split_documents(raw_documents)- Create Embeddings and Store in Vectorstore: Generate embeddings for each text chunk and store them in a vectorstore.
embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()
vectorstore = FAISS.from_documents(documents, embeddings)Querying of Data
The querying process involves the following steps:
- Condense Question Prompt: Create a standalone question by combining chat history and a new question.
- Question-Answering Prompt: Customize the prompt for answering questions based on relevant documents and the standalone question.
- Language Model: Choose a language model to power your chatbot, such as the OpenAI LLM.
After making customizations, run the ingestion script using python ingest_data.py to generate a vectorstore.pkl file.
Putting it all together
The chatbot can be interacted with using a simple interface:
python cli_app.pyThis opens a terminal interface to ask questions and receive answers. Additionally, the app can be deployed via Gradio using python app.py and to Hugging Face spaces.
