Question answering using embeddings-based search

# Question answering using embeddings-based searchGPT excels at answering questions, but only on topics it remembers from its training data.What should you do if you want GPT to answer questions about unfamiliar topics? E.g.,- Recent events after Sep 2021- Your non-public documents- Information from past conversations- etc.This notebook demonstrates a two-step Search-Ask method for enabling GPT to answer questions using a library of reference text.1. **Search:** search your library of text for relevant text sections2. **Ask:** insert the retrieved text sections into a message to GPT and ask it the question## Why search is better than fine-tuningGPT can learn knowledge in two ways:- Via model weights (i.e., fine-tune the model on a training set)- Via model inputs (i.e., insert the knowledge into an input message)Although fine-tuning can feel like the more natural option—training on data is how GPT learned all of its other knowledge, after all—we generally do not recommend it as a way to teach the model knowledge. Fine-tuning is better suited to teaching specialized tasks or styles, and is less reliable for factual recall.As an analogy, model weights are like long-term memory. When you fine-tune a model, it's like studying for an exam a week away. When the exam arrives, the model may forget details, or misremember facts it never read.In contrast, message inputs are like short-term memory. When you insert knowledge into a message, it's like taking an exam with open notes. With notes in hand, the model is more likely to arrive at correct answers.One downside of text search relative to fine-tuning is that each model is limited by a maximum amount of text it can read at once:| Model           | Maximum text length       ||-----------------|---------------------------|| `gpt-3.5-turbo` | 4,096 tokens (~5 pages)   || `gpt-4`         | 8,192 tokens (~10 pages)  || `gpt-4-32k`     | 32,768 tokens (~40 pages) |(New model is available with longer contexts, gpt-4-1106-preview have 128K context window)Continuing the analogy, you can think of the model like a student who can only look at a few pages of notes at a time, despite potentially having shelves of textbooks to draw upon.Therefore, to build a system capable of drawing upon large quantities of text to answer questions, we recommend using a Search-Ask approach.## SearchText can be searched in many ways. E.g.,- Lexical-based search- Graph-based search- Embedding-based searchThis example notebook uses embedding-based search. [Embeddings](https://platform.openai.com/docs/guides/embeddings) are simple to implement and work especially well with questions, as questions often don't lexically overlap with their answers.Consider embeddings-only search as a starting point for your own system. Better search systems might combine multiple search methods, along with features like popularity, recency, user history, redundancy with prior search results, click rate data, etc. Q&A retrieval performance may also be improved with techniques like [HyDE](https://arxiv.org/abs/2212.10496), in which questions are first transformed into hypothetical answers before being embedded. Similarly, GPT can also potentially improve search results by automatically transforming questions into sets of keywords or search terms.## Full procedureSpecifically, this notebook demonstrates the following procedure:1. Prepare search data (once per document)    1. Collect: We'll download a few hundred Wikipedia articles about the 2022 Olympics    2. Chunk: Documents are split into short, mostly self-contained sections to be embedded    3. Embed: Each section is embedded with the OpenAI API    4. Store: Embeddings are saved (for large datasets, use a vector database)2. Search (once per query)    1. Given a user question, generate an embedding for the query from the OpenAI API    2. Using the embeddings, rank the text sections by relevance to the query3. Ask (once per query)    1. Insert the question and the most relevant sections into a message to GPT    2. Return GPT's answer### CostsBecause GPT is more expensive than embeddings search, a system with a decent volume of queries will have its costs dominated by step 3.- For `gpt-3.5-turbo` using ~1,000 tokens per query, it costs ~$0.002 per query, or ~500 queries per dollar (as of Apr 2023)- For `gpt-4`, again assuming ~1,000 tokens per query, it costs ~$0.03 per query, or ~30 queries per dollar (as of Apr 2023)Of course, exact costs will depend on the system specifics and usage patterns.## PreambleWe'll begin by:- Importing the necessary libraries- Selecting models for embeddings search and question answering```python# importsimport ast  # for converting embeddings saved as strings back to arraysfrom openai import OpenAI # for calling the OpenAI APIimport pandas as pd  # for storing text and embeddings dataimport tiktoken  # for counting tokensimport os # for getting API token from env variable OPENAI_API_KEYfrom scipy import spatial  # for calculating vector similarities for search# modelsEMBEDDING_MODEL = "text-embedding-ada-002"GPT_MODEL = "gpt-3.5-turbo"client = OpenAI(api_key=os.environ.get("OPENAI_API_KEY", "<your OpenAI API key if not set as env var>"))```#### Troubleshooting: Installing librariesIf you need to install any of the libraries above, run `pip install {library_name}` in your terminal.For example, to install the `openai` library, run:```zshpip install openai```(You can also do this in a notebook cell with `!pip install openai` or `%pip install openai`.)After installing, restart the notebook kernel so the libraries can be loaded.#### Troubleshooting: Setting your API keyThe OpenAI library will try to read your API key from the `OPENAI_API_KEY` environment variable. If you haven't already, you can set this environment variable by following [these instructions](https://help.openai.com/en/articles/5112595-best-practices-for-api-key-safety).### Motivating example: GPT cannot answer questions about current eventsBecause the training data for `gpt-3.5-turbo` and `gpt-4` mostly ends in September 2021, the models cannot answer questions about more recent events, such as the 2022 Winter Olympics.For example, let's try asking 'Which athletes won the gold medal in curling in 2022?':```python# an example question about the 2022 Olympicsquery = 'Which athletes won the gold medal in curling at the 2022 Winter Olympics?'response = client.chat.completions.create(    messages=[        {'role': 'system', 'content': 'You answer questions about the 2022 Winter Olympics.'},        {'role': 'user', 'content': query},    ],    model=GPT_MODEL,    temperature=0,)print(response.choices[0].message.content)```    As an AI language model, I don't have real-time data. However, I can provide you with general information. The gold medalists in curling at the 2022 Winter Olympics will be determined during the event. The winners will be the team that finishes in first place in the respective men's and women's curling competitions. To find out the specific gold medalists, you can check the official Olympic website or reliable news sources for the most up-to-date information.In this case, the model has no knowledge of 2022 and is unable to answer the question.### You can give GPT knowledge about a topic by inserting it into an input messageTo help give the model knowledge of curling at the 2022 Winter Olympics, we can copy and paste the top half of a relevant Wikipedia article into our message:```python# text copied and pasted from: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Curling_at_the_2022_Winter_Olympics# I didn't bother to format or clean the text, but GPT will still understand it# the entire article is too long for gpt-3.5-turbo, so I only included the top few sectionswikipedia_article_on_curling = """Curling at the 2022 Winter OlympicsArticleTalkReadEditView historyFrom Wikipedia, the free encyclopediaCurlingat the XXIV Olympic Winter GamesCurling pictogram.svgCurling pictogramVenueBeijing National Aquatics CentreDates2–20 February 2022No. of events3 (1 men, 1 women, 1 mixed)Competitors114 from 14 nations← 20182026 →Men's curlingat the XXIV Olympic Winter GamesMedalists1st place, gold medalist(s) Sweden2nd place, silver medalist(s) Great Britain3rd place, bronze medalist(s) CanadaWomen's curlingat the XXIV Olympic Winter GamesMedalists1st place, gold medalist(s) Great Britain2nd place, silver medalist(s) Japan3rd place, bronze medalist(s) SwedenMixed doubles's curlingat the XXIV Olympic Winter GamesMedalists1st place, gold medalist(s) Italy2nd place, silver medalist(s) Norway3rd place, bronze medalist(s) SwedenCurling at the2022 Winter OlympicsCurling pictogram.svgQualificationStatisticsTournamentMenWomenMixed doublesvteThe curling competitions of the 2022 Winter Olympics were held at the Beijing National Aquatics Centre, one of the Olympic Green venues. Curling competitions were scheduled for every day of the games, from February 2 to February 20.[1] This was the eighth time that curling was part of the Olympic program.In each of the men's, women's, and mixed doubles competitions, 10 nations competed. The mixed doubles competition was expanded for its second appearance in the Olympics.[2] A total of 120 quota spots (60 per sex) were distributed to the sport of curling, an increase of four from the 2018 Winter Olympics.[3] A total of 3 events were contested, one for men, one for women, and one mixed.[4]QualificationMain article: Curling at the 2022 Winter Olympics – QualificationQualification to the Men's and Women's curling tournaments at the Winter Olympics was determined through two methods (in addition to the host nation). Nations qualified teams by placing in the top six at the 2021 World Curling Championships. Teams could also qualify through Olympic qualification events which were held in 2021. Six nations qualified via World Championship qualification placement, while three nations qualified through qualification events. In men's and women's play, a host will be selected for the Olympic Qualification Event (OQE). They would be joined by the teams which competed at the 2021 World Championships but did not qualify for the Olympics, and two qualifiers from the Pre-Olympic Qualification Event (Pre-OQE). The Pre-OQE was open to all member associations.[5]For the mixed doubles competition in 2022, the tournament field was expanded from eight competitor nations to ten.[2] The top seven ranked teams at the 2021 World Mixed Doubles Curling Championship qualified, along with two teams from the Olympic Qualification Event (OQE) – Mixed Doubles. This OQE was open to a nominated host and the fifteen nations with the highest qualification points not already qualified to the Olympics. As the host nation, China qualified teams automatically, thus making a total of ten teams per event in the curling tournaments.[6]SummaryNationsMenWomenMixed doublesAthletes AustraliaYes2 CanadaYesYesYes12 ChinaYesYesYes12 Czech RepublicYes2 DenmarkYesYes10 Great BritainYesYesYes10 ItalyYesYes6 JapanYes5 NorwayYesYes6 ROCYesYes10 South KoreaYes5 SwedenYesYesYes11 SwitzerlandYesYesYes12 United StatesYesYesYes11Total: 14 NOCs101010114Competition scheduleThe Beijing National Aquatics Centre served as the venue of the curling competitions.Curling competitions started two days before the Opening Ceremony and finished on the last day of the games, meaning the sport was the only one to have had a competition every day of the games.

In the women's curling event, the gold medal was won by Great Britain. In the mixed doubles curling event, the gold medal was won by Italy.Thanks to the Wikipedia article included in the input message, GPT answers correctly.In this particular case, GPT was intelligent enough to realize that the original question was underspecified, as there were three curling gold medal events, not just one.Of course, this example partly relied on human intelligence. We knew the question was about curling, so we inserted a Wikipedia article on curling.The rest of this notebook shows how to automate this knowledge insertion with embeddings-based search.## 1. Prepare search dataTo save you the time & expense, we've prepared a pre-embedded dataset of a few hundred Wikipedia articles about the 2022 Winter Olympics.To see how we constructed this dataset, or to modify it yourself, see [Embedding Wikipedia articles for search](Embedding_Wikipedia_articles_for_search.ipynb).```python# download pre-chunked text and pre-computed embeddings# this file is ~200 MB, so may take a minute depending on your connection speedembeddings_path = "https://cdn.openai.com/API/examples/data/winter_olympics_2022.csv"df = pd.read_csv(embeddings_path)``````python# convert embeddings from CSV str type back to list typedf['embedding'] = df['embedding'].apply(ast.literal_eval)``````python# the dataframe has two columns: "text" and "embedding"df```<div><style scoped>    .dataframe tbody tr th:only-of-type {        vertical-align: middle;    }    .dataframe tbody tr th {        vertical-align: top;    }    .dataframe thead th {        text-align: right;    }</style><table border="1" class="dataframe">  <thead>    <tr style="text-align: right;">      <th></th>      <th>text</th>      <th>embedding</th>    </tr>  </thead>  <tbody>    <tr>      <th>0</th>      <td>Lviv bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics\n\n{{Oly...</td>      <td>[-0.005021067801862955, 0.00026050032465718687...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>1</th>      <td>Lviv bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics\n\n==His...</td>      <td>[0.0033927420154213905, -0.007447326090186834,...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>2</th>      <td>Lviv bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics\n\n==Ven...</td>      <td>[-0.00915789045393467, -0.008366798982024193, ...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>3</th>      <td>Lviv bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics\n\n==Ven...</td>      <td>[0.0030951891094446182, -0.006064314860850573,...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>4</th>      <td>Lviv bid for the 2022 Winter Olympics\n\n==Ven...</td>      <td>[-0.002936174161732197, -0.006185177247971296,...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>...</th>      <td>...</td>      <td>...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>6054</th>      <td>Anaïs Chevalier-Bouchet\n\n==Personal life==\n...</td>      <td>[-0.027750400826334953, 0.001746018067933619, ...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>6055</th>      <td>Uliana Nigmatullina\n\n{{short description|Rus...</td>      <td>[-0.021714167669415474, 0.016001321375370026, ...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>6056</th>      <td>Uliana Nigmatullina\n\n==Biathlon results==\n\...</td>      <td>[-0.029143543913960457, 0.014654331840574741, ...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>6057</th>      <td>Uliana Nigmatullina\n\n==Biathlon results==\n\...</td>      <td>[-0.024266039952635765, 0.011665306985378265, ...</td>    </tr>    <tr>      <th>6058</th>      <td>Uliana Nigmatullina\n\n==Biathlon results==\n\...</td>      <td>[-0.021818075329065323, 0.005420385394245386, ...</td>    </tr>  </tbody></table><p>6059 rows × 2 columns</p></div>## 2.

AskWith the search function above, we can now automatically retrieve relevant knowledge and insert it into messages to GPT.Below, we define a function `ask` that:- Takes a user query- Searches for text relevant to the query- Stuffs that text into a message for GPT- Sends the message to GPT- Returns GPT's answer```pythondef num_tokens(text: str, model: str = GPT_MODEL) -> int:    """Return the number of tokens in a string."""    encoding = tiktoken.encoding_for_model(model)    return len(encoding.encode(text))def query_message(    query: str,    df: pd.DataFrame,    model: str,    token_budget: int) -> str:    """Return a message for GPT, with relevant source texts pulled from a dataframe."""    strings, relatednesses = strings_ranked_by_relatedness(query, df)    introduction = 'Use the below articles on the 2022 Winter Olympics to answer the subsequent question.

In the women's curling tournament, the gold medal was won by the team from Great Britain, consisting of Eve Muirhead, Vicky Wright, Jennifer Dodds, Hailey Duff, and Mili Smith."Despite `gpt-3.5-turbo` having no knowledge of the 2022 Winter Olympics, our search system was able to retrieve reference text for the model to read, allowing it to correctly list the gold medal winners in the Men's and Women's tournaments.However, it still wasn't quite perfect—the model failed to list the gold medal winners from the Mixed doubles event.### Troubleshooting wrong answersTo see whether a mistake is from a lack of relevant source text (i.e., failure of the search step) or a lack of reasoning reliability (i.e., failure of the ask step), you can look at the text GPT was given by setting `print_message=True`.In this particular case, looking at the text below, it looks like the #1 article given to the model did contain medalists for all three events, but the later results emphasized the Men's and Women's tournaments, which may have distracted the model from giving a more complete answer.```python# set print_message=True to see the source text GPT was working off ofask('Which athletes won the gold medal in curling at the 2022 Winter Olympics?', print_message=True)```    Use the below articles on the 2022 Winter Olympics to answer the subsequent question.

Here are some of the effects:\n\n1. Changes in Qualification: The qualifying process for curling and women\'s ice hockey had to be altered due to the cancellation of tournaments in 2020. Qualification for curling was based on placement in the 2021 World Curling Championships and an Olympic Qualification Event. The women\'s tournament qualification was based on existing IIHF World Rankings.\n\n2. Biosecurity Protocols: The International Olympic Committee (IOC) announced biosecurity protocols for the Games, which included a "closed-loop management system" where athletes had to remain within a bio-secure bubble. Athletes were required to undergo daily COVID-19 testing and could only travel to and from Games-related venues. Only residents of China were allowed to attend the Games as spectators.\n\n3. NHL Player Withdrawal: The National Hockey League (NHL) and National Hockey League Players\' Association (NHLPA) announced that NHL players would not participate in the men\'s hockey tournament due to concerns over COVID-19 and the need to make up postponed games.\n\n4. Limited Spectators: Ticket sales to the general public were canceled, and only limited numbers of spectators were admitted by invitation only. The Games were closed to the general public, with spectators only present at events held in Beijing and Zhangjiakou.\n\n5. Use of My2022 App: Everyone present at the Games, including athletes, staff, and attendees, were required to use the My2022 mobile app as part of the biosecurity protocols. The app was used for health reporting, COVID-19 vaccination and testing records, customs declarations, and messaging.\n\n6. Athlete Absences: Some top athletes, including Austrian ski jumper Marita Kramer and Russian skeletonist Nikita Tregubov, were unable to travel to China after testing positive for COVID-19, even if asymptomatic.\n\n7. COVID-19 Cases: There were a total of 437 COVID-19 cases linked to the 2022 Winter Olympics, with 171 cases among the COVID-19 protective bubble residents and the rest detected through airport testing of games-related arrivals.\n\nPlease note that this answer is based on the provided articles and may not include all possible impacts of COVID-19 on the 2022 Winter Olympics.'
