LangChain: Models, Prompts and Output Parsers

Outline

  • Direct API calls to OpenAI
  • API calls through LangChain:
  • Prompts
  • Models
  • Output parsers

### Output Parsers
Let's start with defining how we would like the LLM output to look like:


```python
{
  "gift": False,
  "delivery_days": 5,
  "price_value": "pretty affordable!"
}

{'gift': False, 'delivery_days': 5, 'price_value': 'pretty affordable!'}

anniversary present. \

So far I've been the only one using it, and I've been \
using it every other morning to clear the leaves on our lawn. \
It's slightly more expensive than the other leaf blowers \
out there, but I think it's worth it for the extra features.

review_template = """\
