OpenAI Q&A using Redis VSS for Context

Summary

I'll be covering the use case of providing supplemental context to OpenAI in a question/answer scenario (ChatGPT).  Various news articles will be vectorized and stored in Redis.  For a given question that lies outside of ChatGPT's knowledge, additional context will be fetched from Redis via Vector Similarity Search (VSS).   That context will aid ChatGPT in providing a more accurate answer.

Architecture


Code Snippets

OpenAI Prompt/Collect Helper Function


The code below is a simple function for sending a prompt into ChatGPT and then extracting the resulting response.

OpenAI QnA Example 1


The prompt below is on a topic (FTX meltdown) that is outside of ChatGPT's training cut-off date. As a result, the response is of poor quality (wrong).

Redis Context Index Build


The code below uses Redis-py client lib to build an index for business article content in Redis. The index has two fields in its schema: the text content itself and a vector representing the embedding of that text content.

Context Storage as Redis JSON


The code below loads up a dozen different business articles into Redis as JSON objects.

Redis Vector Search (KNN)


A vector search in Redis is depicted below. This particular query picks the #1 article as far as vector distance to a given question (prompt).

Reprompt ChatGPT with Redis-fetched Context


The context fetched in the previous step is now added as supplemental info to ChatGPT for the same FTX-related question. The response is now in line with expectations.
