La chiamata di funzioni consente di collegare i modelli a strumenti e API esterni. Anziché generare risposte di testo, il modello determina quando chiamare funzioni specifiche e fornisce i parametri necessari per eseguire azioni nel mondo reale. Ciò consente al modello di fungere da ponte tra il linguaggio naturale e le azioni e i dati del mondo reale. Le chiamate di funzione hanno tre casi d'uso principali:
- Esegui azioni:interagisci con sistemi esterni utilizzando API, ad esempio pianificare appuntamenti, creare fatture, inviare email o controllare dispositivi per la smart home.
- Aumenta le conoscenze:accedi alle informazioni da fonti esterne come database, API e knowledge base.
- Estendi le funzionalità:utilizza strumenti esterni per eseguire calcoli ed estendere i limiti del modello, ad esempio utilizzando una calcolatrice o creando grafici.
Di seguito puoi sfogliare alcuni esempi di questi casi d'uso:
Pianifica riunione
Questo esempio mostra come definire una funzione che pianifica una riunione con i partecipanti a un'ora specifica, consentendo al modello di analizzare le richieste degli utenti e restituire argomenti strutturati per attivare azioni in sistemi esterni.
