Build a GPT-4o file search assistant to retrieve and summarize ArXiv papers on AGI using OpenAI's Assistants API. Learn how to query research papers, extract insights, and automate summarization, streamlining information retrieval for faster analysis.

AI-powered assistants can enhance productivity by automating tasks like document summarization and file searches. In this code-along, we’ll build a GPT-4o file search assistant that retrieves and summarizes ArXiv papers about AGI (Artificial General Intelligence). Following OpenAI’s Assistants API framework, you’ll learn how to set up an API key, interact with GPT-4o, and process text efficiently. We’ll cover querying, summarization, and structured data extraction, enabling you to automate research workflows. By leveraging AI, this assistant can streamline information retrieval, making it easier to extract key insights from large volumes of text. By the end, you’ll have a functional AI-powered assistant capable of handling complex document searches, saving time and improving knowledge discovery. Create your own DataLab workbook for this code along: (https://www.datacamp.com/datalab/new?accountType=personal&_tag=workspace&workspaceId=71e4cd67-b49a-4d82-9493-fc567910a9e1&title=Creating%20AI%20Assistants%20with%20GPT-4o&visibility=private&openIfExists=true) This course is designed for intermediate-level learners with a background in programming and familiarity with AI concepts. Participants should have a basic understanding of API integration and experience with working in Python. Knowledge of machine learning or natural language processing is beneficial but not mandatory. This course consists of a single, comprehensive video where you’ll walk through the entire process of building a GPT-4o-powered AI assistant. You’ll start by setting up your API key, uploading documents, and creating a vector store. The video guides you step-by-step in building and running the assistant, optimizing it for efficient research paper retrieval and summarization.
