Welcome!

Prediction Prophet is an agent that specializes in making informed predictions, based on web research. To try it yourself head to predictionprophet.ai or build and run from source following these setup instructions.

How It Works

To elaborate further, given a question like "Will Twitter implement a new misinformation policy before the 2024 elections?", Prophet will:

1. Generate n web search queries and re-ranks them using an LLM call, selecting only the most relevant ones
2. Search the web for each query, using Tavily
3. Scrape and sanitize the content of each result's website
4. Use Langchain's RecursiveCharacterTextSplitter to split the content of all pages into chunks and create embeddings. All chunks are stored with the content as metadata.
5. Iterate over the queries selected on step 1 and vector search for the most relevant chunks created in step 4.
6. Aggregate all relevant chunks and prepare a report.
7. Make a prediction.

Setup

Installation

1. Clone the repository

   git clone https://github.com/polywrap/predictionprophet

2. Copy the .env.template file and rename it to .env.

   cp .env.template .env

3. Find the line that says OPENAI_API_KEY=, and add your unique OpenAI API Key

   OPENAI_API_KEY=sk-...

4. Find the line that says TAVILY_API_KEY=, and add your unique Tavily API Key

   TAVILY_API_KEY=tvly-...

5. Install all dependencies

   poetry install

6. Enter the python environment

   poetry shell

Now you're ready to go!

Predict

poetry run predict "Will Twitter implement a new misinformation policy before the 2024 elections?"

Research

poetry run research "Will Twitter implement a new misinformation policy before the 2024 elections?"

Front-End

poetry run streamlit run ./prediction_prophet/app.py

Possible Future Improvements

For the researcher:

• Using LLM re-ranking, like Cursor to optimize context-space and reduce noise
• Use self-consistency and generate several reports and compare them to choose the best, or even merge information
• Plan research using more complex techniques like tree of thoughts
• Implement a research loop, where research is performed and then evaluated. If the evaluation scores are under certain threshold, re-iterate to gather missing information or different sources, etc.
• Perform web searches under different topic or category focuses like Tavily does. For example, some questions benefit more from a "social media focused" research: gathering information from twitter threads, blog articles. Others benefit more from prioritizing scientific papers, institutional statements, and so on.
• Identify strong claims and perform sub-searches to verify them. This is the basis of AI powered fact-checkers like: https://fullfact.org/
• Evaluate sources credibility
• Further iterate over chunking and vector-search strategies
• Use HyDE

For the information evaluator/grader

• Use self-consistency to generate several scores and choose the most repeated ones.
• Enhance the evaluation and reduce its biases through the implementation of more advanced techniques, like the ones described here https://arxiv.org/pdf/2307.03025.pdf and here https://arxiv.org/pdf/2305.17926.pdf
• Further evaluate biases towards writing-style, length, among others described here: https://arxiv.org/pdf/2308.02575.pdf and mitigate them
• Evaluate using different evaluation criteria
