Hello,
I am looking for Elixir libraries to build a chat / recommendations bot. It should be AI driven (Open AI or Gemini) accelerated by data (about locations and businesses) stored in RDBMS.
Thank you.

I just Googled
Elixir chatgptand got this:Seems like it suits your requirements.

I’m aware of 3 libraries at the moment:
instructor. I’d say if you find yourself struggling to write custom stuff withinstructor, take a look at this one. It’s simpler and easier to embed into your own code.al2o3cr
Check out
instructor_ex- even if it doesn’t do quite what you want it should provide some inspiration / examples:https://github.com/thmsmlr/instructor_ex

Thank you all, I appreciate that.

Thanks for sharing, all helpful. I will tell you more about our needs so you can hopefully help me to choose better between the different libraries.
We are building a chat-bot which should help people choose a restaurant to dine at or to order food delivery. Users will be authenticated and data from previous chats will be stored in
RDBMSin order to fine-tune future suggestions by the chat-bot.The chat session will have stages:
A. Understand if users want to dine at a restaurant or want to order delivery.
B. Understand cuisine type / preference of user.
C. Provider suggestions based on AI or/and data about restaurants we have at
RDBMS.D. Help user make an order online using 3rd party API’s
What do you think, which library can suit these needs better? Thank you.

In the meantime, I have started experimenting with
langchain. So far so good.waseigo
In case you are using self-hosted LLMs with ollama, I’ve written this API wrapper: ollamex | Hex
