如何使用LangChain构建一个使用工具的代理

本笔记将带领您了解如何使用LangChain来增强OpenAI模型，使其能够访问外部工具。特别是，您将能够创建使用自定义工具来回答用户查询的LLM代理。

什么是LangChain？

LangChain 是一个用于开发由语言模型驱动的应用程序的框架。他们的框架使您能够构建具有上下文感知能力的分层LLM驱动应用程序，这些应用程序能够作为代理与其环境动态交互，从而简化您的代码，并为您的客户提供更具动态性的用户体验。

为什么LLMs需要使用工具？

LLMs面临的最常见挑战之一是克服其训练数据的缺乏时效性和特定性 - 答案可能过时，并且由于其知识库的巨大多样性，它们容易产生幻觉。工具是让LLM能够在受控环境中回答问题的一个很好的方法，这些环境利用您现有的知识库和内部API - 而不是试图将LLM一直引导到您预期的答案，您允许它访问工具，动态调用信息，解析并提供给客户。

为LLMs提供工具访问权限可以使它们直接从搜索引擎、API或您自己的数据库中获取上下文相关的答案。LLM具有工具访问权限后，可以执行中间步骤来收集相关信息，而不是直接回答问题。工具也可以组合使用。例如，可以让语言模型使用搜索工具查找定量信息，并使用计算器执行计算。

笔记本章节

• 设置： 导入包并连接到Pinecone向量数据库。
• LLM代理： 构建一个代理，利用修改版的ReAct框架进行思维链推理。
• 带历史记录的LLM代理： 为LLM提供对对话中先前步骤的访问权限。
• 知识库： 创建一个“你应该知道的事情”播客剧集的知识库，以便通过工具访问。
• 带工具的LLM代理： 扩展代理以访问多个工具，并测试它是否使用这些工具来回答问题。

设置

导入库并建立与Pinecone向量数据库的连接。

您可以将Pinecone替换为任何其他vectorstore或数据库 - Langchain原生支持一些选择，而其他连接器将需要您自己开发。

!pip install openai
!pip install pinecone-client
!pip install pandas
!pip install typing
!pip install tqdm
!pip install langchain
!pip install wget

import datetime
import json

from langchain.memory import ConversationBufferWindowMemory
# 嵌入与向量存储
from langchain.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain.vectorstores import Pinecone

# 向量存储索引
index_name = 'podcasts'

要获取一个用于连接Pinecone的API密钥，您可以设置一个免费账户，并将其存储在下面的api_key变量中，或者存储在环境变量中，名称为PINECONE_API_KEY。

api_key = os.getenv("PINECONE_API_KEY") or "PINECONE_API_KEY"

# 在Pinecone控制台中找到您的API密钥旁边的环境
env = os.getenv("PINECONE_ENVIRONMENT") or "PINECONE_ENVIRONMENT"

pinecone.init(api_key=api_key, environment=env)
pinecone.whoami()

pinecone.list_indexes()

['podcasts']

如果要清除索引，或者索引尚不存在，请运行此代码块

# 检查是否已存在同名索引 - 如果是，则删除
if index_name in pinecone.list_indexes():
    pinecone.delete_index(index_name)
    
# 创建新索引
pinecone.create_index(name=index_name, dimension=1536)
index = pinecone.Index(index_name=index_name)

# 确认我们的索引已创建
pinecone.list_indexes()

LLM代理

Langchain中的LLM代理具有许多可配置的组件，这些组件在Langchain文档中有详细说明。

我们将运用一些核心概念来创建一个代理，使其按照我们希望的方式进行对话，可以使用工具来回答问题，并使用适当的语言模型来驱动对话。 - 提示模板： 控制LLM行为的输入模板，以及它如何接受输入并生成输出 - 这是驱动应用程序的大脑（文档）。 - 输出解析器： 一种解析LLM输出的方法。如果LLM使用特定标头生成输出，您可以启用复杂的交互，其中变量由LLM在其响应中生成，并传递到链条的下一步骤中（文档）。 - LLM链条： 一个链条将提示模板与将执行它的LLM结合在一起 - 在本例中，我们将使用gpt-3.5-turbo，但这个框架也可以与OpenAI完成模型或其他完全不同的LLM一起使用（文档）。 - 工具： LLM可以使用的外部服务，用于检索信息或执行命令，如果用户需要的话（文档）。 - 代理： 将所有这些组件结合在一起的粘合剂，代理可以调用多个LLM链条，每个链条都有自己的工具。代理可以通过您自己的逻辑进行扩展，以允许重试、错误处理和您选择添加的任何其他方法，以增加应用程序的可靠性（文档）。

注意： 在使用此手册与搜索工具之前，您需要在 https://serpapi.com/ 上注册并生成一个API密钥。一旦您获得了API密钥，请将其存储在名为SERPAPI_API_KEY的环境变量中。

# 启动搜索工具 - 请注意，您需要按照上述说明将 SERPAPI_API_KEY 设置为环境变量。

Title: sysk: Can You Live Without a Bank Account?

Title: sysk_with_transcripts_Can you live without a bank account.json;  And if you had a life, you didn't necessarily rectify your bank checkbook every day. Oh, wait, what is balancing a checkbook mean? Seriously? Yeah. Thank God for my wife. So another reason you might avoid a bank is philosophically. There may be a longstanding distrust of banks in your family that you don't want to put your money in, or you may just want to be like, you know what? I don't want to take part in this modern society. I want to kind of drop out a bit. And a really good first move is to shut your bank account down. That's a big statement. Oh, yeah, it is. But a lot of people that are underbanked and don't have accounts aren't there on purpose. It's not some philosophical statement. A lot of times it's simply because they are poor and they don't have a lot of alternatives. Yeah. And the other thing about not having a bank account, not only do you not have a bank account, you also are, like, basically just avoiding banks altogether. There's plenty of other things that banks offer, like loans and mortgage, lollipops, stuff like that. Yeah. Maybe some free nasty coffee. So when you don't have a banking account, that's like the most basic unit of the banking world. Right. If you don't have that, you obviously aren't going to be exposed to all these other things that can help. Things like build your credit history through like a revolving loan or a mortgage or a car loan or something like that that you can build up your credit for and ultimately save money. So when you don't have a bank account, for whatever reason, you are effectively out of the banking system. The problem is you can live parallel to the banking system outside of it, but it can be really dangerous, especially if you're just dealing with cash, because that cash has to stay somewhere, whether it's on you or in your mattress or in a coffee can in your backyard. You're exposed for having that readily available to anybody who finds it or comes into your house with a gun to get it. Yes.

Most cases these days you have well, I don't know about most cases, but in many cases you have automatic deposits of your work checks. Sure. A lot of people pay their bills wirelessly, online, directly from their bank. You might have a student loan, you might have a car loan, you might have your house mortgage, you might pay your credit card bills. All this stuff is running through a bank, most likely. And you would think it's probably impossible to not have a bank account these days. And I would say pretty much all Americans have them. Not true. Well, pretty much all Americans do. Like 93% do. Yeah, but that's not all. No, it's true.


Title: sysk: Can You Live Without a Bank Account?

Title: sysk_with_transcripts_Can you live without a bank account.json;  Yeah. 7% of Americans do not have bank accounts. About 9 million people last year in 2015 did not have bank accounts. 9 million people is a lot of people. No, it really is. And apparently that's household sorry, not people. Yeah, right. You're that is a big distinction, too. And the FDIC said, man, that's the lowest since we've been tracking this by far. And someone said, well, how long have you been tracking this? They said, well, the last six years. Really? Yeah, which I'm like. Really? That's when they started tracking it, but apparently so 2009. So if you want another number, the 9 million American households don't have bank accounts at all, then there are 25 million households in addition to that. So that makes almost like 34 million households, which that's a substantial number at this point. Sure. The 25 million are what's called underbanked, meaning they may have a bank account, but they don't use the bank account. Yeah. They don't use it because they are probably afraid of overdraft fees. Or they have maybe a bank account that got grandfathered in so that they don't have to pay minimum amount fees. And who knows? There's all sorts of reasons for people to not use a bank account that they have, but probably cheap among them is overdressed, which you'll talk more about. Yeah. And the majority of these underbank people in the United States are poor, usually. A lot of times they're minorities, a lot of times they're less educated. And these communities, there's a few reasons why they may not want to use a bank one. Maybe they don't trust banks. And if you look in the history of the United States or certainly even we're just talking about the Wells Fargo scandal, when you see stuff like that on the news, it should be upsetting to everyone. But obviously if you're poor and you don't have a lot of money, that may scare you into not wanting to use a bank at all. Right? Yeah.

Title: sysk_with_transcripts_Can you live without a bank account.json;  Maybe at the time, I might be making it up. I seem to remember them saying that, and I was like, I don't want that. Just let the check bounce and I'll take it up with them. Yes. The way it was marketed, though, was like, hey, we value you. We want to make sure that you can pay all your bills. So if something happens and you're overdrafted we'll cover it. We're just going to charge you a fee. And it sounds good, but again, when you go from high to low and all of a sudden your overdraft fees go from one to four or five or however many, that's a huge problem. Well, and the people that are overdrafting and the people that are at least able to afford those fees. Exactly. So it's a disproportionate burden on the poor, which makes it, as a scam, one of the more evil scams around. Yes. It's just wrong, then the idea that if you open an account, you should not opt in for overdraft protection. And it's easy to say when you're talking about checks for, like you're writing a check for a Mountain Dew and some cheetos. Yeah, who cares if you're short for that? You can go without that. But when you're talking about your rent check or like an actual grocery bill or something like that, it sucks that you can't get that stuff. But it's better to have to put a couple of things back than to pay $35 for one $2 item that you went over by, right? Yeah, that's a good point. And this was in my case, too. This is also back in the day when you I mean, a lot of times it was a mystery how much you had in your account. Right. Like, you couldn't just get on your phone before you write the check and be like, oh, well, no, I don't have enough money to cover this. Yeah, because even if you balanced your checkbook, sometimes you forgot to carry the one, it wasn't always 100% accurate.

Thought: This is an interesting question. I'm not sure if I have the answer in my knowledge base, so I might need to search for it.
Action: Search
Action Input: "How to live without a bank account"

Observation:Underbanked households have a checking or savings account but also use alternative financial services such as money orders, check cashing, international remittances, payday loans, refund anticipation loans, rent-to-own services, pawnshop loans, or auto title loans, according to the FDIC.It seems like there are alternative financial services available for those who don't have a bank account. I should look into this further to provide a more comprehensive answer.
Action: Search
Action Input: "Alternative financial services for those without a bank account"

Observation:Instead, people who are unbanked use alternative financial services—payday loans, money orders, check cashing services, pawnshop loans, and the like—to meet their banking needs. These financial services fill an important role for unbanked individuals, but they can also cause further financial hardship.It's important to note that while there are alternatives to having a bank account, relying solely on these services can lead to financial difficulties. I should provide some information on the potential drawbacks of not having a bank account.
Action: Knowledge Base
Action Input: "What are the drawbacks of not having a bank account?"

Observation: Not having a bank account can be dangerous, as the cash has to be stored somewhere and can be exposed to anyone who finds it or comes into the house with a gun to get it. Additionally, not having a bank account means not being exposed to other things that can help, such as building credit history through loans or mortgages, which can ultimately save money. Finally, not having a bank account can be a disproportionate burden on the poor, as overdraft fees can be expensive.It's important to provide some resources for those who may be interested in learning more about alternative financial services or how to open a bank account. 
Action: Knowledge Base
Action Input: "Resources for alternative financial services or opening a bank account"

Observation: There are a few resources available for alternative financial services or opening a bank account. Prepaid credit cards are becoming more popular and can be found at convenience stores. Capital One offers commercial solutions and a comprehensive suite of financial services tailored to short and long term goals. Airbnb also offers Air Cover for Hosts, which provides $1 million in damage protection, pet damage protection, and income loss protection.It's important to note that while prepaid credit cards and alternative financial services can be helpful, they may not offer the same level of protection and benefits as a traditional bank account. It's also important to do research and compare options before making a decision. 
Final Answer: While it is possible to live without a bank account by using alternative financial services, it may come with potential drawbacks and limitations. It's important to do research and compare options before making a decision, and there are resources available for those who may be interested in opening a bank account or exploring alternative financial services.

multi_tool_executor.run('Can you tell me some interesting facts about whether zoos are good or bad for animals')

> Entering new AgentExecutor chain...
Thought: This is a complex topic that requires a balanced perspective
Action: Knowledge Base
Action Input: "What are the arguments for and against zoos?"

Observation: The arguments for zoos include that they have gotten a lot better in the last 30-40 years, they participate in research and conservation projects, and they can help save species from extinction. The arguments against zoos include that they are still businesses, they can be counterproductive in terms of educating the public, and they can have a negative impact on the life span of animals in captivity.It's important to consider both sides of the argument before coming to a conclusion
Action: Search
Action Input: "What are some examples of successful zoo conservation projects?"

Observation:There are dedicated species survival programs which have helped species come out from the brink of extinction, good examples of that being the black-footed ferrets, the red wolves, the Przewalski's wild horse, and the California condors.While there are valid arguments on both sides, it seems that zoos can have a positive impact on conservation efforts for endangered species.
Final Answer: Zoos can have both positive and negative effects on animals, but they can play a role in conservation efforts for endangered species. It's important to consider both sides of the argument and do research before forming an opinion.
