Results for "function calling"

Function Calling

Intermediate

Constraining model outputs into a schema used to call external APIs/tools safely and deterministically.

Function calling in AI is like giving a computer a specific set of instructions to follow when it needs to get information from another source. Imagine you have a recipe that tells you exactly how to ask a delivery service for ingredients. In AI, function calling ensures that when a model needs t...
