OpenAI API Features
Overview
In this tutorial, we will explore OpenAI API Features. The OpenAI API
offers several features designed to integrate AI capabilities into your
software applications.
OpenAI API Features
Some important features are as follows:
- Text generation
- Image generation
- Embeddings
- Function calling
- Fine-Tuning
- Text to Speech
- Speech to Text
- Vision
Text generation
The API provides access to powerful LLMs like GPT, which can generate human-like text, answer questions, summarize content, etc. These language models can understand and generate natural language in multiple languages.
Text-to-Speech
The Audio API provides a speech endpoint with some built-in voices and can be used to turn text into speech. The API supports multiple languages.
Speech-to-Text
The Audio API provides functionalities like transcriptions and translations
capable of converting speech to text.
Function Calling
API provides the model’s ability to call external functions. The AI models have been trained to detect when a function should be called and to respond accordingly based on the method signatures.
Embeddings
OpenAI API offers embeddings that are numerical representations of text that capture semantic meaning or measure the relatedness of strings. An embedding is a vector of floating point numbers. The distance between the two vectors is a measure of the relatedness.
These can be used for tasks like semantic search, clustering, finding similar documents, etc.
Fine Tuning
The API has Fine-tuning capabilities that let you fine-tune and get more quality output from the AI models.
Vision
The API can select new modes, like GPT-4 Turbo with Vision, which allows users to input images and answer questions about them.
