+Today I learned how the integrate LangChain into the OpenAI API. Since it was quite a bit to wrap my head around, I also had to do the deep dive on some of the fundamentals of machine learning and vector databases. I published a simple demo and started making notes about the process.

+I've started making notes and related resources @ [/docs/sass/openai](/docs/saas/openai) <sub>1</sub>. I also put up a simple demo @ [https://jenks.davidawindham.com](https://jenks.davidawindham.com) <sub>2</sub> that uses a doctoral dissertation from a friend who teaches computer science locally. It's powered by the OpenAI API, LangChain, and a Pinecone vector database.

+I'm about halfway done with a course ChatGPT Prompt Engineering for Developers<sub>3</sub>, and I spent a couple hours on the phone talking with a fellow who has a very deep understanding of machine learning and artificial intelligence. It was mostly me asking him to explain some of these to me:
|
|
|
|
|
+
|
|
|
|
|
+- why did my vector database use a cosine metric and what does trigonometry have to do with machine learning?
|
|
|
|
|
+- what are vector dimensions and how to they related to machine learning
|
|
|
|
|
+- how are artificial neural networks built
|
|
|
|
|
+- how are linear regressions used in machine learning
|
|
|
|
|
+- how are weights and dimensions added to models.
|
|
|
|
|

|
|
|
|
|
+It's all quite a bit to take in. My brain was lit 🔥 on LangChain, so I spent a good hour just decompressing. I still feel a bit like I did when I first started learning programming in that I have such a naive knowledge of the fundamentals. In the last couple of weeks, I've spent a good bit of time just getting reacquainted with Python development environments like Jupyter, Colab, Tensorflow, and PyTorch. I don't think I'll ever be building neural networks, but I would at least like to know how it's done so that the training, chaining, prompting, transformers, and pipelines will become easier for me to use.

+Although I can see some really practical applications, I think my first custom project will likely be an absurd AI chatbot built on top of my personal chats, emails, calendar, this knowledge-base, and my website<sub>4</sub>. My wife and I were discussing AI a couple days ago and our biggest takeaway is that when systematic knowledge like that of a Jeopardy contestant becomes less impressive, the more that our personal human qualities like emotion and artistic creativity become important.
