How to Build your Own Local AutoGen GPT Tutorial



AI Summary

  • Introduction
    • Creating a GPT model with knowledge about Autogen using Lang chain.
    • Autogen is not known to AI models as it was released after their training data cut-off.
    • Autogen is used for orchestrating agent workflows and conversations.
  • Project Setup
    • Create a new project and a directory called “Ducks”.
    • Clone the Autogen GitHub repository into the “Ducks” directory.
    • Install necessary requirements from a provided requirements.txt file.
  • Using Lang Chain and Vector Database
    • Lang chain tool “git tool” is used to get Autogen repository for context.
    • The context is stored in a vector database for the language model (LLM).
    • The vector database helps manage and understand the information for the LLM.
  • Implementation Details
    • Clone Autogen repo using git clone command.
    • Create a text splitter to manage document size for the vector database.
    • Use OpenAI embeddings and a vector store to save and manage the data.
    • Set up environment variables including OpenAI API key and index name for the vector database.
    • Use Lang chain’s git loader to load and split Autogen repository files.
    • Save the vector store with the index name in the directory.
    • Instantiate OpenAI embeddings and create a retriever for similar search results.
    • Invoke the retriever with a question to get a response from the LLM.
  • Testing and Results
    • Test the setup with questions about Autogen.
    • The model successfully returns detailed summaries and Python code for creating a group chat with agents.
    • Some questions may not return results, indicating room for optimization.
  • Conclusion
    • The project demonstrates how to give an LLM context about a specific topic using Lang chain.
    • Future uses could include integrating Wikipedia sources, PDFs, and HTML parsing for additional context.
    • The process is a good starting point for those new to Lang chain.
    • The tutorial ends with encouragement to explore more Autogen videos and content.
