I try the code as the following code, it return me 400 error. What should I do while there is no parameters in the function?

    const completion = await openai.createChatCompletion({
        "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo-0613",
        "messages": [
            {"role": "user", "content": "What time is it now?"}
          ],
          "functions": [
            {
              "name": "getNow",
              "description": "Get the current time",
              "parameters": null
            }
          ]
    });

should look like this for java

const completion = await openai.createChatCompletion({
model: “gpt-3.5-turbo-0613”,
messages: [
{ role: “system”, content: “You are a helpful assistant.” },
{ role: “user”, content: “What time is it now?” }
],
functions: [
{
name: “getNow”,
description: “Get the current time”,
instructions: “Please provide the current time.”,
parameters: {
time: “now”
}
}
]
});

I try later, it works now.

    const completion = await openai.createChatCompletion({
        "model": "gpt-3.5-turbo-0613",
        "messages": [
            { "role": "user", "content": "What time is it now?" }
        ],
        "functions": [
            {
                "name": "getNow",
                "description": "Get the current time",
                "parameters": {
                    "type": "object",
                    "properties": {
                        "time": {
                            "type": "string",
                            "description": "Get the current time."
                        },
                    },
                    "required": []
                }
            }
        ]
    });

I tried, and it doesn’t work

I experimented with the minimum function required to pass the endpoint schema, for example, for a function that is just a “trigger” with no input.

Here’s what I came up with:

function_list=[
    {
        "name": "fortune_of_the_day",
        "description": "Displays fortune cookie in user interface",
        "parameters": {
            "type": "object",
            "properties": {
                "dummy_property": {
                    "type": "null",
                }
            }
        }
    }
]

The AI then calls the function with an empty array (same token count as nothing in a function’s parenthesis):

      "message": {
        "role": "assistant",
        "content": null,
        "function_call": {
          "name": "fortune_of_the_day",
          "arguments": "{}"
        }
      }

A return status role should still be included (or the time for a time function), if you don’t want an endless loop of fortune cookies.
