Chatbot

The interface to chatbot functionality is through the responder module. We currently include huggingface models and an interface for ChatGPT. Both can be tested by directly running the zero_shot and chatgpt files.

Installation

You can follow the huggingface installation instructions and the OpenAI python api instructions to set up your chatbot.

Getting Started

There are three basic ways to interact with the chatbot.

1. You can interact directly with the zero_shot or chatgpt modules. These can be run directly from the command line.

2. You can strike up an interactive conversation with the responder module either through the command line or by importing it into a different script.

3. For more complex projects I recommend looking at the facilitator module to see how the chatbot backend was incorporated for a combination of controlled and uncontrolled responses.
