slambda 0.0.14

Instruction is Function!

Sλ: Getting Started

What does slambda do?

Integrating language model such as GPT into your code can be a difficult process. sLambda simplifies the process by translating natural language instructions and examples into ready-to-use Python functions.

Install

pip install slambda

Prerequisite

Currently, sLambda only supports OpenAI's ChatCompletion API, so you will need an OpenAI API key in order to use this package,

Please check OpenAI's documentation: Authentication if you need to create a new API key. Create an OpenAI API Key Here.

If you have encountered this error:

AuthenticationError: No API key provided. You can set your API key in code using 'openai.api_key = <API-KEY>', 
or you can set the environment variable OPENAI_API_KEY=<API-KEY>). If your API key is stored in a file, 
you can point the openai module at it with 'openai.api_key_path = <PATH>'. You can generate API keys in the OpenAI web 
interface. See https://platform.openai.com/account/api-keys for details.

It means that you need to supply OPENAI_API_KEY somewhere in your code. Check out our guide on Loading API key for best practices.

import os
import openai

# We highly recommend you to load OPENAI_API_KEY via environmental variable 

if not os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY"):
    print(
        "You need to set environmental variable OPENAI_API_KEY, consider using dotenv."
        "See more on https://slambda.dataset.sh/docs/tips/apikey"
    )

openai.api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")

# ---------or---------

# You can also do it by providing value directly
openai.api_key = "sk-ThIsIsAFaKeKEY12345678990...."
# But we considered to be a security risk, please read our guide on how to load api key for more details. 

Define your own functions

sLambda can help you turn OpenAI's ChatCompletion api into a extraction, classification, generation api with ease.

Transitioning from being an electrician to a financial analyst, and equipped with a Bachelor's degree in English, I am driven to undertake a Master's degree in Computer Science. This decision arises from my diverse experiences, revealing the intersecting points between my past and the boundless possibilities of the tech world.
My time as an electrician cultivated problem-solving and precision skills, paralleling the demands of programming. Similarly, my role as a financial analyst exposed me to the potency of data analysis and technology-driven decision-making. Recognizing these common threads, I am keen to meld my existing expertise with the innovation fostered by computer science.
My Bachelor's degree in English endowed me with critical thinking and communication prowess, invaluable assets when navigating interdisciplinary collaborations and explaining intricate technicalities. By pursuing a Master's in Computer Science, I aspire to fuse my linguistic finesse with programming adeptness, enhancing my capacity to innovate and contribute effectively.
The evolving landscape of computer science intrigues my intellectual curiosity, from AI and machine learning to cybersecurity and software engineering. This fervor drives my academic pursuit, aiming to amplify my theoretical knowledge and hands-on skills, positioning me at technology's vanguard.
In conclusion, my journey – from electrician to financial analyst, fortified by a Bachelor's in English – has illuminated the transformative potential of computer science. With a burning desire to challenge and unite my experiences, I am resolute in my commitment to a Master's in Computer Science. This endeavor promises not only personal enrichment but also a chance to meaningfully influence the trajectory of technological advancement.

Project Status

The basic functionalities of this package have been reasonably tested (coverage: 100%), and you should have no problem creating your own functions.

Function implementations in slambda.contrib should have a reasonable output quality. However, since they are powered by a language model, you should conduct your own evaluation/testing within your problem domain to ensure that the model's performance meets your requirements.

We plan to add more functions to slambda.contrib and provide a more thorough evaluation report for each function implementation in the near future.
