Evaluation

Evaluate LLM responses when there is a single "right answer".

Setup

Load the API key and relevant Python libaries.

Some code that loads the OpenAI API key for you.

import os
import openai
import sys
import utils

import panel as pn  # GUI
pn.extension()

from dotenv import load_dotenv, find_dotenv
_ = load_dotenv(find_dotenv()) # read local .env file

openai.api_type = os.getenv("api_type")
openai.api_base = os.getenv("api_base")
openai.api_version = os.getenv("api_version")
openai.api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")
def get_completion_from_messages(messages, model="chatgpt-gpt35-turbo", temperature=0, max_tokens=500):
    response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(
        engine=model,
        messages=messages,
        temperature=temperature, 
        max_tokens=max_tokens, 
    )
    return response.choices[0].message["content"]
