Simply Create a Number of LLM Apps with Streamlit and Clarifai

By simply altering the plain English immediate, rapidly experiment with totally different LLMs and purposes

Creator: Ian Kelk, Product Advertising and marketing Supervisor, Clarifai

👉 TLDR: This weblog put up showcases easy methods to construct an enticing and versatile chatbot utilizing the Clarifai API and Streamlit. Hyperlinks: Here is the app and the code.

This Streamlit app permits you to chat with a number of Massive Language Fashions. It has two principal capabilities:

• It proves how highly effective and straightforward it’s to combine fashions offered by Clarifai utilizing Streamlit & Langchain.
• You possibly can consider the responses from a number of LLMs and select the one which most accurately fits your function.
• You possibly can see how simply by altering the preliminary immediate to the LLM, you’ll be able to utterly change your complete nature of the app.

Introduction

Good day, Streamlit Neighborhood! 👋 I am Ian Kelk, a machine studying fanatic and Developer Relations Supervisor at Clarifai. My journey into information science started with a robust fascination for AI and its purposes, significantly inside the lens of pure language processing.

Drawback assertion

It will possibly appear intimidating to should create a wholly new Streamlit app each time you discover a new use case for an LLM. It additionally requires realizing a good quantity of Python and the Streamlit API. What if, as an alternative, we will create utterly totally different apps simply by altering the immediate? This requires practically zero programming or experience, and the outcomes could be surprisingly good. In response to this, I’ve created a Streamlit chatbot software of types, that works with a hidden beginning immediate that may seriously change its behavour. It combines the interactivity of Streamlit’s options with the intelligence of Clarifai’s fashions.

On this put up, you’ll discover ways to construct an AI-powered Chatbot:

Step 1: Create the surroundings to work with Streamlit domestically

Step 2: Create the Secrets and techniques File and outline the Immediate

Step 3: Set Up the Streamlit App

Step 4: Deploy the app on Streamlit’s cloud.

App overview / Technical particulars

The applying integrates the Clarifai API with a Streamlit interface. Clarifai is thought for it is full toolkit for constructing manufacturing scale AI, together with fashions, a vector database, workflows, and UI modules, whereas Streamlit gives a sublime framework for consumer interplay. Utilizing a secrets and techniques.toml file for safe dealing with of the Clarifai Private Authentication Token (PAT) and extra settings, the appliance permits customers to work together with totally different Language Studying Fashions (LLMs) utilizing a chat interface. The key sauce nonetheless, is the inclusion of a separate prompts.py file which permits for various behaviour of the appliance purely based mostly on the immediate.

Let’s check out the app in motion:

Step A

As with every Python undertaking, it is all the time greatest to create a digital surroundings. Here is easy methods to create a digital surroundings named llm-text-adventure utilizing each conda and venv in Linux:

1. Utilizing conda:

1. Create the digital surroundings:

   Observe: Right here, I am specifying Python 3.8 for example. You possibly can exchange it along with your desired model.

2. Activate the digital surroundings:

3. If you’re accomplished and want to deactivate the surroundings:

2. Utilizing venv:

1. First, guarantee you might have venv module put in. If not, set up the required model of Python which incorporates venv by default. When you’ve got Python 3.3 or newer, venv must be included.

2. Create the digital surroundings:

   Observe: You might want to interchange python3 with simply python or one other particular model, relying in your system setup.

3. Activate the digital surroundings:

   When the surroundings is activated, you may see the surroundings title (llm-text-adventure) initially of your command immediate.

4. To deactivate the digital surroundings and return to the worldwide Python surroundings:

   That is it! Relying in your undertaking necessities and the instruments you are accustomed to, you’ll be able to select both conda or venv.

Step B

The following step begins with making a secrets and techniques.toml file which shops Clarifai’s PAT and defines the language studying fashions that will likely be obtainable to the chatbot.

This file will maintain each the PAT (private authotization token) on your app, which you’d by no means wish to publicly share. The opposite line is our default fashions, which is not an vital secret however determines which LLMs you may supply.

Here is an instance secrets and techniques.toml. Observe that when internet hosting this on the Streamlit cloud, you could go into your app settings -> secrets and techniques so as to add these strains in order that the Streamlit servers can use the data. The next DEFAULT_MODELS gives GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, Claude v2, and the three sizes of Llama2 skilled for directions.

On Streamlit’s cloud, this would seem like this:

Step C

The second step entails establishing the Streamlit app (app.py). I’ve damaged it up into a number of substeps since that is lengthy part.

1. Importing Python libraries and modules:

   Import important APIs and modules wanted for the appliance like Streamlit for app interface, Clarifai for interface with Clarifai API, and Chat associated APIs.

2. Set the structure:

   Configure the structure of the Streamlit app to “extensive” structure which permits utilizing extra horizontal house on the web page.

3. Outline helper capabilities:

   These capabilities guarantee we load the PAT and LLMs, maintain a report of chat historical past, and deal with interactions within the chat between the consumer and the AI.

4. Outline immediate lists and cargo PAT:

   Outline the checklist of obtainable prompts together with the non-public authentication token (PAT) from the secrets and techniques.toml file. Choose fashions and append them to the llms_map.

5. Immediate the consumer for immediate choice:

   Use Streamlit’s built-in choose field widget to immediate the consumer to pick one of many offered prompts from prompt_list.

6. Select the LLM:

   Current a selection of language studying fashions (LLMs) to the consumer to pick the specified LLM.

7. Initialize the mannequin and set the chatbot instruction:

   Load the language mannequin chosen by the consumer. Initialize the chat with the chosen immediate.

8. Initialize the dialog chain:

   Use a ConversationChain to deal with making conversations between the consumer and the AI.

9. Initialize the chatbot:

   Use the mannequin to generate the primary message and retailer it into the chat historical past within the session state.

10. Handle Dialog and Show Messages:

    Present all earlier chats and name chatbot() perform to proceed the dialog.

That is the step-by-step walkthrough of what every part in app.py does. Right here is the total implementation:

Step D

That is the enjoyable half! All the opposite code on this tutorial already works superb out of the field, and the one factor you could change to get totally different behaviour is the prompts.py file:

1. “Textual content Journey”: On this mode, the chatbot is instructed to behave as a Textual content Journey online game. The sport world is ready on this planet of “A Tune of Ice and Hearth”. As a lately knighted character, consumer’s interactions will decide the unfolding of the sport. The chatbot will current the consumer with 6 choices at every flip, together with an ascii map and the choice to ‘Assault with a weapon.’ The consumer interacts with the sport by inputting corresponding possibility numbers. It’s supposed to provide a practical text-based RPG expertise with situations, just like the consumer’s stock, altering based mostly on the consumer’s actions.
   
2. “Italian Tutor”: Right here, the bot performs the position of an Italian tutor. It’s going to current sentences that the consumer has to translate, alternating between English to Italian and Italian to English. If the consumer commits a mistake, the bot will appropriate them and provides the best translation. It is designed for customers who want to observe their Italian language abilities in a conversational setup.
   
3. “Jeopardy”: On this mode, the chatbot emulates a sport of ‘Jeopardy’ with the consumer. The bot will current a number of classes and an ASCII illustration of a sport board. Every class has 5 questions, every with values from 100 to 500. The consumer selects a class and the worth of a query, and the bot asks the corresponding query. The consumer solutions in Jeopardy’s signature model of a query. If the consumer will get it proper, they earn factors, and in the event that they get it flawed, factors are deducted. The sport ends when all questions have been answered, and the bot studies the ultimate rating.
