In this article, I will walk you through the basics of LangChain. I will explain what LangChain is and how to create a simple AI chatbot that can answer questions using OpenAIās GPT language model and give GPT internet access using the SerpApi.
The next chapter of the AI revolution is here!
To start off, I hear you wondering āWhat is this LangChain thing that I have been hearing so much about?ā
LangChain is a framework designed to create software applications that utilise large language models (LLMs). This framework allows applications to not only depend on calling a language model through an API, but will also:
- Be data-aware: connect a language model to other sources of data.
- Be agentic: allow a language model to interact with its environment.
With LangChain, you can chain multiple models from different libraries, like OpenAIās GPT-3 or Hugging Faceās transformers, and connect them to various external data sources. This allows you to create more complex AI applications that can access and utilise a wider range of data sources.
Integrating this new framework is the next big step in the AI revolution.
