OpenAI Assistant API from Pluralsight

The Assistants API is OpenAI's functionality that allows building powerful AI assistants, which are capable of performing amazing tasks. This course will teach you how to build an assistant that receives requests and responds using natural language.

AI assistants and chatbots have been a topic of great interest for many years. However, good AI assistants have also been really hard to implement and deploy… until now. The AI Assistants API from OpenAI allows creating powerful AI assistants that are capable of performing a variety of tasks that are really hard to code using traditional coding mechanisms. In this course, OpenAI Assistants API, you’ll learn how to develop powerful assistants that can be deployed in your applications that can interact using natural language. First, you’ll learn how to create and retrieve assistants. Next, you’ll learn how to create threads, run, and retrieve responses. Next, you’ll learn how to call functions that can be used by your assistant. Finally, you will learn how to upload content that your assistant can use for its responses. When you’re finished with this course, you’ll have the skills and knowledge of the OpenAI Assistants API needed to create a powerful AI assistant that receives prompts in natural languages and provides excellent responses using natural language.
