Portfolio

Checkout a few of my projects

LlamaIndex and OpenAI

Chatbot using RAG and LlamaIndex

Developed a Chatbot in Jypiter notebook using RAG, OpenAI and LlamaIndex. The Chatbot can answer questions about multiple PDFs. The PDF is first converted into embedding index, then it is stored in a local vector database. The context is added to LLM for response. E.g., in the image on the right the Chatbot is reading my resume and answering questions by adding context from the resume.
