human: Tell me more about what I'm seeing on this website.

assistant: I assume you are talking about Open Assistant's web interface. Open Assistant is a chatbot developed by the non-profit LAION to be completely open-source and free for everyone to use. This is the main interface for using Open Assistant: a simple, React-based website that lets you type in Markdown and the assistant will respond. Besides typing prompts and viewing responses, you can (and I recommend you do) rate the assistant's responses. For advanced users: you can also change the assistant parameters.

Besides communicating with the assistant, you can also contribute future training data in the "Dashboard" section. You can provide example user prompts and assistant responses, or rank and classify ones that others have provided. These examples ultimately "teach" Open Assistant how it should respond: they are the "Human Feedback" in the RHLF model that Open Assistant uses.

In the "Messages" section, you can view your past messages, as well as others' recent ranking and assistant responses. In the "Leaderboard" and "Stats" section, you can see how much others have contributed.

The "Guidelines" section takes you to the site's guidelines, which tell you the rules for how to provide and classify data for Open Assistant (there are no rules for how to chat with the assistant, and it will simply refuse bad requests). This part of the website also lets you view documentation, Open Assistant's API, and the Github.

Lastly, the stars in the top-right corner show how much you have contributed. Gain more stars by visiting the dashboard and providing / classifying examples! Next to the stars is your profile, where you can change your username and view settings. You can also change the language (Open Assistant is available in many languages) and toggle between light and dark mode.

human: 1.How do I change the language?
2.What is the RHLF model?
3.Can I create my own chatbot using Open Assistant's API?
4.How often is Open Assistant updated?
5.What languages are supported by Open Assistant?

assistant: 1. You can change the language using the dropdown in the top-right corner, which should say "English" or your current language. Click on that and you'll see a list of other languages, you can select one
2. Apologies, I meant RLHF. RLHF stands for "Reinforcement Learning with Human Feedback". The model architecture used by Open Assistant and other LLMs is called a "transformer". The model is initially trained to predict the next word in a sequence of text, using text obtained by scraping the web (so it tries to predict the next word based on how everyday text flows). However, this model can only predict the next word, not act as an assistant. To make it an assistant, we further train the model with specially-crafted example responses generated by humans: this is the "human feedback" and the model is trained with this in a method called "reinforcement learning". Eventually the model learns how to start responses like an assistant, and once it starts generating the correct response, the underlying "predict next word" training can take over and finish
3. You can create your own chatbot using Open Assistant's API by sending REST requests to the server. You will need an authentication method, such as an authentication token. See here for the API reference: https://projects.laion.ai/Open-Assistant/api. Note that the API is very broad, and there are different types of APIs: do you want to query the Open Assistant server, or run your own local instance? You need to ask more specific questions in order for me to give you better information
4. The site is updated constantly with new deployments every few hours it seems. However these are mostly small updates and fixes, the model is re-trained in less frequently as training is expensive. As to how much the model is re-trained and updated, there is no definitive answer. My guess is that the Open Assistant model will be updated every ~3 months, but it ultimately depends on how much data we get, how much funding, what new developments we will have, and other information I cannot predict
5. Open Assistant supports many languages, and new ones are being added frequently. As of my most recent training, here are the supported languages:
