Hi everyone! I would really appreciate any advice you might have for a project I’m working on for my Mom. She recently had a health event that left her with only partial vision. Before this, she always used technology for everyday tasks in managing her small business. (scheduling, writing documents …

Hey James Sorry to hear about your mom’s situation. But we are indeed living in the times where many of the science fiction we used to read in books and watch in movies is becoming reality and helping people like your mom continue living a full life. To your questions: You won’t need to fine-tu…

Thanks Tony! I appreciate your reply. I am a relative newcomer to AI, so I might be misunderstanding the fine-tune, or “training” part. What I am looking to do, is similar to the custom instructions feature on the chatGPT chat bot, except I would want the Persona to have a larger variety of set resp…

That sounds like a really cool project, and at the same time, it’s something that has surely been done already in many different ways, as you point out in your original post. Depending on how quickly you want to see results, it may be sufficient to search for and test existing solutions. From this p…

I believe you can look into assistants: https://platform.openai.com/docs/api-reference/assistants It is possible to try it on playground too: https://platform.openai.com/playground?mode=assistant The advantages would be that you are allowed to include a file attachment, possibly customizing a la…

Based on your requirements it sounds it sounds like you ultimately want a “Hybrid RAG”. I say RAG because you want to periodically inject new data easily. And hybrid because you want the output to be fine-tuned. I would first drop the fine-tune part, because you can get close via prompting, and f…

James, it is a common point of confusion. Fine-tuning is a term meaning very specific technical task updating the weights of the model, but in the lingo of clients it somehow transformed into “setting up behaviour of a model”. From what I see, in 99% of the cases when somebody new to the field talks…

awesome. Thank you for all for your knowledge! The thought of making a custom GPT never crossed my mind for this use case until aprendendo mentioned it. I’m going to start with that route, and see if the actions/ knowledge abilities of the CustomGPT can accomplish what I 'm looking for. Wish me luc…

You don’t need luck man! Just some time and effort.

Also consider a Knowledge graph such as Neo4J there versatility and accuracy is underrated with RAG and LLMs.

As someone who cares for his elderly mother and profoundly intellectually disabled sister, this use-case just grabs me. If you need any assistance, please reach out. Pro Bono, of course. My experimentation with providing GPT-3 and GPT-4 with a continuous memory, and the python module I’m working on …

Hi James, I am working on a similar project with a few individuals involved. Would love to connect and collaborate.
