"𝐎𝐩𝐞𝐧𝐀𝐈 𝐀𝐏𝐈 𝐂𝐨𝐨𝐤𝐛𝐨𝐨𝐤" assists developers by providing clear guidance on setting up and utilizing the OpenAI API. It explains key endpoints and parameters, demonstrates advanced features, and offers practical examples for building intelligent applications and conversational agents, ultimately helping developers create effective and innovative AI solutions.Few points that I want to highlight are as below:The book begins by setting up the environment for using the OpenAI API and introduces the API playground.It then explores various API endpoints, such as those for image and audio processing and explains their specific functions.Next, the book delves into key parameters, including the model and temperature settings and discusses their impact on API responses.Following this, advanced features and functionalities of the API are covered, including using embedding models for text comparison and fine-tuning completion models.The book provides guidance on integrating the API into application development and managing different development environments.It then focuses on creating intelligent applications with the API, such as a wrapper application for generating email replies and a multimodal application for generating travel itineraries.The final section is dedicated to building conversational assistants using the OpenAI API.

*Reading Reco*: This weekend, completed perusing "𝑶𝒑𝒆𝒏𝑨𝑰 𝑨𝑷𝑰 𝑪𝒐𝒐𝒌𝒃𝒐𝒐𝒌 - 𝑩𝒖𝒊𝒍𝒅 𝒊𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒍𝒍𝒊𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒂𝒑𝒑𝒍𝒊𝒄𝒂𝒕𝒊𝒐𝒏𝒔 𝒊𝒏𝒄𝒍𝒖𝒅𝒊𝒏𝒈 𝒄𝒉𝒂𝒕𝒃𝒐𝒕𝒔, 𝒗𝒊𝒓𝒕𝒖𝒂𝒍 𝒂𝒔𝒔𝒊𝒔𝒕𝒂𝒏𝒕𝒔, 𝒂𝒏𝒅 𝒄𝒐𝒏𝒕𝒆𝒏𝒕 𝒈𝒆𝒏𝒆𝒓𝒂𝒕𝒐𝒓𝒔", authored by Henry Habib, Packt Publications. An excellent read, this book is a must-have / read for those specifically looking to deep-dive into OpenAI LLM APIs and building LLM-based applications.✌️𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐠𝐞𝐭 𝐚𝐮𝐝𝐢𝐞𝐧𝐜𝐞: Aspiring Cloud Architects, Data Analysts, Cloud Developers, Data Scientists, AI Researchers, Tech Business Leaders, and Tech Evangelists.✅ 5 things that makes this book an excellent read:1️⃣ Each chapter builds from basics, with recipes (working examples) that you can follow to get started, up and running in no time at all. I checked out all the examples using Postman, Bubble, Google Colab (for Notebooks), the Serverless functions - which are in Google Cloud, but you could use Azure or AWS for executing the same.2️⃣ Get started with the essentials of how to leverage Postman for using OpenAI APIs. It is assumed you have access to either an OpenAI or in my case, Azure OpenAI LLM/SLM to test the exercises.3️⃣ The Chapter on using the Python Library to call OpenAI API, fine-tuning a completion model is excellent.4️⃣ The Chapter which covers creating a public endpoint server that calls the OpenAI API, extending the endpoint server to accept parameters and return data, and finally calling the user-created endpoint from no-code application is a good read.5️⃣ The Chapter 6 & 7 are excellent in terms of providing a step-by-step guidance on building real-life applications. You learn hands-on on creating a travel itinerary (multi-modal) application where a user can type in any location and the application creates a 1-day itinerary specific to that location, along with AI-generated photos that correspond to that itinerary. Works with an integration of Google Functions (serverless code acting as Backend server) + Postman (API test) + Bubble (front-end) + API Connector (integration between front-end & back-end).Overall, this is an excellent book - short, but powerful.

My interest is robotics with a side interest in AI. I turned to the OpenAI Cookbook to see how my robot might be able to make use of the wealth of AI out there. Although I'm only part way through, I can already see the possibilities. Raj lays out very clear "recipes" with the necessary ingredients and procedures to achieve the goal. There's no jargon or special knowlege needed. Anybody who can surf the net can follow this book to great advantage. Like all rapidly changing technology, web sites like Chat Playground or Postman used in the book may have a slightly different appearance or procedure than described in the book but it's easy enough to figure out. Personal API keys have been replaced by Project keys, an easy transition.

I've only gone through half of the book so far, but I found this to be an excellent resource. It quickly got me up writing real code, doing useful things. I look forward to going through the last half of the book.
