Hugging Face Takes on OpenAI with Chat Assistants
Hugging Face has released Chat Assistants, an open-source alternative to OpenAI’s proprietary GPT chatbots. Unlike GPTs, Hugging Face’s assistant is entirely free, with no subscription required. Users can choose between various open-source large language models like Mixtral and Llama 2 to power their chatbot. For now, it lacks some key features of GPT, like retrieval augmented generation, web search, taking actions, and GPT model building. So it sits a step below custom GPTs, but Hugging Face plans to add more capabilities over time. Overall, Chat Assistants provides a compelling no-cost option compared to GPT’s $20 monthly fee, highlighting the potential of open-source models versus proprietary chatbots.

Prompt of the week
ChatGPT and other AI tools have become an integral part of our lives. These AI text generation tools generate texts in multiple formats, such as emails, product descriptions, blog posts, etc. The main problem with these AI tools is that they all generate text, which mostly seems robotic; it doesn’t seem like a human-written format that is so reader-friendly. To generate the text in a proper readable format, we need to improve the prompts given to the ChatGPT.
Here is the prompt:
Before crafting any prompt, you need to keep 3 things in your mind.
- Age– Age plays an important factor in generating any output. The result of the same prompts is different for different ages. For example, if you use age as 5, it generates the output that is simple, like simple words that would be easy to explain.
- Voice– Voice is another important factor for any prompt. Voice means that the role assigned, tenses, and speech are formal and informal.
- Tone– Tone means the emotions you want to generate through the result.
Let’s apply all these and design a prompt: - Old Prompt– Write an essay on 100 reasons to explore India.
- Refine Prompt– Write an essay on 100 reasons to explore India.
- Age– Write like a 15-year-old student.
- Voice– You are a student who is writing for his school assignment. Your English is decent, but you use complicated words.
- Tone- The tone should be formal, assertive, and dominant.
