Define custom roles to tailor LLM behaviors, enhancing interactions and boosting productivity.
The role consists of a prompt and model configuration.
Maintain context-aware conversations through sessions, ensuring continuity in interactions.
The left side uses a session, while the right side does not use a session.
Integrate external documents into your LLM conversations for more accurate and contextually relevant responses.
Function calling supercharges LLMs by connecting them to external tools and data sources. This unlocks a world of possibilities, enabling LLMs to go beyond their core capabilities and tackle a wider range of tasks.
We have created a new repository https://github.com/sigoden/llm-functions to help you make the most of this feature.
Integrate external tools to automate tasks, retrieve information, and perform actions directly within your workflow.
AI Agent = Instructions (Prompt) + Tools (Function Callings) + Documents (RAG).
