Thank you very much for putting this video together. Just as an FYI for anyone trying to get the Studdy Buddy to work. You should pin your openai python package to 1.14.0 ( later versions might work, but the latest will not ) because the API changed in the latest version of the OpenAI Python API.

I wanted to see the final results with the user interface. I used to work for Dow Jones (publishers of the WSJ) and my job was programming that news compilation, once at the end of each month, but it was made in C++. Running that executable took more than 12 hours. We left the program running overnight. In any other language, Visual Basic, or any other, the program took almost 24 hours to run. It was even slower for scripting languages. So the only solution was C++.

Thank you for the tutorial, it's truly awesome. I need to find time to thoroughly review it. I have a question: I'm currently looking to analyze simulated data from interviews between psychologists and clients. Each interview is about 20,000 tokens long, and I want to summarize the Q&A content to create a case report for each client. However, loading all the data at once is a significant challenge. I've considered dividing the data into batches and feeding it to the assistant for processing, but this often leads to incoherent outputs, as if the assistant is hallucinating. My current plan is to split the data into multiple files, then gradually submit these to the assistant to generate summaries, and finally integrate these into a comprehensive case report. The issue is that my current programming skills are limited to simple interactions-submitting a question and receiving an answer. Although I can use a for loop to process batches of data for summaries, these seem to be treated as separate conversations without shared context, which means the AI might not remember past interactions. How can I program it so that my prompts are processed in a single thread, similar to how the assistant interface maintains context throughout a conversation? Thank you for your help.

In the Study Buddy you need to fix upload_to_openai so that the file actually gets a name when uploaded: def upload_to_openai(filepath): with open(filepath, "rb") as file: response = client.files.create(file=(os.path.basename(filepath), file), purpose="assistants") return response.id

it really gets to me that error prevented the assistant from working and only you mentioned it. im lucky i saw your comment and connected the problem to the code,. not familiar with python i would have never figured that out. i cant thank you enough. made all the difference. i have a big question for you: do you think my sql tables with extensive business calculation knowledge examples can be read in and recognized as the models for building any workflow? organized by access, functions and sequence, this methodology can define any business process. if an assistant can read in my proven formulas that reside in 15 sql tables and let users select from them and build new ones anything can be defined, matched and executed.

This is a wonderful video @vincibits This may be premature since I haven’t tried it yet, but I’ve been doing a lot of work so I’m not token hogging and this assistants API feels like it may eat up tokens. I’ll benchmark each for comparison. The convo history compression alone would be something I’d rather managed in a thread, but if it’s using up tokens, it’s gonna be expensive

You see, if wer'e using assistants api with 4 or 4.5 turbo models, also fine tuning a bit(if this means training our assistant to some extent), then they are going to charge separately on the three fronts they mentioned there? model + assistant api(session thing) + fine tuning($8/M tokens or so)?
