Build an AI SMS Chatbot with Replicate, LLaMA 2, and LangChain
Blog post from Twilio
The project introduces an AI SMS chatbot that answers questions using LangChain templating, LLaMA 2, Replicate, and Twilio Programmable Messaging. The prerequisites include setting up a Twilio account, installing Python, creating a Replicate account, and installing necessary packages. A Flask app is created to accept inbound text messages, pass them to the LLaMA 2 model, and return the output as an outbound text message with Twilio Programmable Messaging. The code uses LangChain templating to define a prompt template for the AI assistant, which acts as Ahsoka from Star Wars, providing advice and answering questions. The project showcases how developers can build generative AI-powered tools and experiences using these technologies.
