Giving Auto-GPT Long-Term Memory with Weaviate | Weaviate
Auto-GPT is a rising open-source python project that utilizes the power of GPT-4. It chains together thoughts and completes various tasks autonomously. With its ability to chain together thoughts, it is possible to independently define objectives needed to complete the task. This feature makes Auto-GPT stand out from other language models that require human feedback and intervention.
Auto-GPT makes use of GPT-4 for text generation, GPT-3.5 for file storage and summarization, and a list of pre-configured prompts such as summarization. By configuring Auto-GPT with a list of tools, such as a code executor, google search API, or a calculator, it begins with a user query. It then proposes an action plan to achieve the task and tries to confirm each action was completed before proceeding to the next step.
Auto-GPT has both short-term and long-term memory. It can recall its actions for future use by connecting to a vector database like Weaviate. This extension allows Auto-GPT to retrieve specific information necessary to complete the task. Therefore, it is essential to connect Auto-GPT to Weaviate, especially if the task is not included in the training data.
Integrating Auto-GPT with Weaviate
To integrate Auto-GPT with Weaviate, you can follow these steps:
- Create a Sandbox instance.
- Install Auto-GPT using the latest instructions from the repo, with the following notes in mind:
- During installation, edit the variables in the Auto-GPT .env file based on the requirements.
- After installation, start Auto-GPT either directly on your device or within a Docker container.
The above steps will allow Auto-GPT to use the WCS instance as the memory backend, allowing it to store and retrieve information as required.
Cautionary Notes
Although Auto-GPT is an excellent project to try, it is still in experimental phase, so it is best not to use it in production. Additionally, letting Auto-GPT run for a long period could get expensive and affect your device. Therefore, it is best to keep an eye on your OpenAI API usage and set a limit on your spend.
In conclusion, by integrating Weaviate with Auto-GPT, you can enhance the model's performance and enable it to recall specific information necessary to complete the assigned task. Try Auto-GPT today and discover its limitless possibilities!
