Creating a highly complex AI program capable of answering any question is an ambitious task, but I can provide you with a simplified version that you can expand upon. This example will use a combination of natural language processing (NLP) and a pre-trained language model (like OpenAI's GPT) to simulate a question-answering system. The code will be compatible with PythonAnywhere.

Here's a step-by-step implementation:

  1. Setting Up Requirements: You'll need flask for the web framework and openai for the GPT model. Also, ensure you have the required packages installed in PythonAnywhere.

  2. Creating the Flask App: The code below creates a simple Flask application that takes user input and responds with an answer using the OpenAI API.

  3. Code Implementation:

# app.py
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import os
import openai

# Initialize the Flask application
app = Flask(__name__)

# Set your OpenAI API key from environment variable
openai.api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")

@app.route('/')
def home():
    return "<h1>Welcome to the AI Question Answering System</h1>"

@app.route('/ask', methods=['POST'])
def ask():
    # Receive the user's question from the POST request
    data = request.get_json()
    question = data.get('question', '')

    if not question:
        return jsonify({"error": "No question provided."}), 400

    try:
        # Call the OpenAI API to get an answer
        response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(
            model="gpt-3.5-turbo", # You can also use "gpt-4" if you have access
            messages=[
                {"role": "user", "content": question}
            ]
        )

        # Extract the answer from the response
        answer = response['choices'][0]['message']['content']
        return jsonify({"answer": answer})

    except Exception as e:
        return jsonify({"error": str(e)}), 500

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

Steps to Deploy on PythonAnywhere:

  1. Create a new Flask web app: On PythonAnywhere, select the option to create a new web app and choose Flask.

  2. Set Environment Variables:

    • Go to the "Web" tab on PythonAnywhere.
    • Under "Environment Variables", add a new variable named OPENAI_API_KEY and set it to your OpenAI API key.
  3. Upload your code: Upload the app.py file to your web app's directory.

  4. Install Required Packages: Go to the Bash console on PythonAnywhere and install the required packages:

    pip install flask openai
    
  5. Reload Web App: After uploading your code and installing the dependencies, go back to the "Web" tab and reload your web app.

Testing Your Application:

You can test your application using tools like Postman or curl. Send a POST request to your app's /ask route with a JSON payload containing a question:

{
  "question": "What is the capital of France?"
}

Important Notes:

  • API Key: Ensure you have a valid OpenAI API key and keep it secure.
  • Limitations: The above code is a basic implementation. You can enhance it with user authentication, logging, error handling, and more sophisticated input handling by integrating additional libraries like flask-cors for cross-origin requests if needed.
  • Cost Management: Be aware that using the OpenAI API may incur costs based on usage.

This framework allows you to handle a wide array of questions using a powerful NLP model. You can continue enhancing it based on your requirements!

i also want you to know that i have a beginners plan on pythonanywhere, so not everything is accessable for me.

Understood! With a beginner's plan on PythonAnywhere, you do have some limitations regarding the available features and resources, but you can still develop a basic application using Flask and OpenAI's API for question answering. Below, I have included some simplified code and recommendations specifically for a beginner's plan that you should find easier to implement.

Simplified Flask Application

Here’s the same Flask application as before, but I'll highlight ways to keep it within the beginner's plan limitations:

  1. Do not use heavier models like "gpt-4": Stick to the smaller model (like "gpt-3.5-turbo") if you have API access.

  2. Basic Error Handling: Keep track of errors simply and limit complex functionality to make it easier to debug.

Here’s a simplified version of your Flask app:

# app.py
from flask import Flask, request, jsonify
import os
import openai

# Initialize the Flask application
app = Flask(__name__)

# Set your OpenAI API key from environment variable
openai.api_key = os.getenv("OPENAI_API_KEY")

@app.route('/')
def home():
    return "<h1>Welcome to the Simple AI Question Answering System</h1>"

@app.route('/ask', methods=['POST'])
def ask():
    # Receive the user's question from the POST request
    data = request.get_json()
    question = data.get('question', '')

    if not question:
        return jsonify({"error": "No question provided."}), 400

    try:
        # Call the OpenAI API to get an answer
        response = openai.ChatCompletion.create(
            model="gpt-3.5-turbo",  # Keep it simple for the beginner plan
            messages=[{"role": "user", "content": question}]
        )

        # Extract the answer from the response
        answer = response['choices'][0]['message']['content']
        return jsonify({"answer": answer})

    except Exception as e:
        return jsonify({"error": str(e)}), 500

if __name__ == '__main__':
    app.run(debug=True)

Steps to Deploy on PythonAnywhere for Beginners

  1. Create a New Flask Web App:

    • Log in to your PythonAnywhere account and select "Web" from the dashboard.
    • Click on "Add a new web app" and choose the Flask option.
  2. Environment Variables:

    • In the "Web" tab, scroll down to "Environment variables" and add a variable OPENAI_API_KEY with your OpenAI API key. This is crucial for your API requests.
  3. Upload the Code:

    • Use the PythonAnywhere file manager or a Bash console to create a new file (like app.py) and paste the provided code.
  4. Install Required Packages:

    • Open a Bash console in PythonAnywhere and install Flask and OpenAI dependencies. Although PythonAnywhere typically has Flask installed, it might not have the OpenAI library:
    pip install --user openai
    
  5. Set Up wsgi.py:

    • In your web app's directory, usually there is a file called wsgi.py. Edit it to point to your app.py file:
    import sys
    import os
    
    # Add your project directory to the sys.path
    project_home = u'/home/your_username/your_project_directory'
    if project_home not in sys.path:
        sys.path.append(project_home)
    
    # Set the FLASK_APP environment variable pointing to your app.py
    os.environ['FLASK_APP'] = 'app'
    
    from app import app as application  # Assuming your Flask app is named "app"
    
  6. Reload Your Web App: After everything is set, make sure to reload your web app in the "Web" tab to see the changes.

Testing Your Application

Send a POST request to your deployed app using Postman or a command line tool like curl:

curl -X POST http://yourusername.pythonanywhere.com/ask -H "Content-Type: application/json" -d '{"question": "What is the capital of France?"}'

Important Notes for Beginners

  • API Limits: Monitor your API usage to avoid unexpected charges.
  • Debugging: Use Flask's built-in error reporting by keeping debug=True when developing, but set it to False or remove it in production.
  • Documentation: Refer to PythonAnywhere's documentation and forums for beginner-specific questions and tips.

With the above guidance, you should be able to set up a basic yet functional AI-driven question-answering web application on your beginner's plan on PythonAnywhere. If you encounter specific limitations, feel free to ask for help or adjust the functionality accordingly!

i don't see anything that says environmental variables

On PythonAnywhere, the way to set environment variables may vary slightly based on the interface updates, but below is a general guide on how to find and set your environment variables, specifically for the context of a basic web application.

How to Set Environment Variables on PythonAnywhere

  1. Log In to PythonAnywhere: Go to PythonAnywhere and log into your account.

  2. Navigate to the "Web" Tab: Click on the "Web" tab at the top of the dashboard. This is where you can manage your web applications.

  3. Select Your Web App: If you have multiple web apps, make sure to select the one that you are currently working on for your Flask application.

  4. Find the "Environment Variables" Section:

    • Scroll down the configuration page for your web app. Look for a section labeled "Environment variables". If you don't see this right away, it might be further down the page.
    • If you still can't find it, make sure you are looking at the configuration page for your specific web app, as environment variables are set on a per-app basis.
  5. Add an Environment Variable:

    • In the "Environment variables" section, you will typically see fields where you can add new variables.
    • Enter the name of the variable (for example, OPENAI_API_KEY) in the first box.
    • Enter your actual API key in the second box.
    • Click the "Add" button to save the variable.
  6. Reload Your Web App: After adding your environment variable, scroll to the top of the page and click the "Reload" button to make sure your web app uses the updated environment settings.

Alternative Method: Setting Environment Variables in Code (if needed)

If, for some reason, you cannot access the environment variable settings through the web interface, you can set them directly in your code (though this is less secure and not recommended for production):

At the start of your app.py file, hard-code your API key like this:

# app.py
import openai

# Directly set your API key here (not recommended for production)
openai.api_key = "your_actual_openai_api_key"

Important Note:

Directly coding sensitive information like API keys in your source code is generally considered a bad practice, especially for production applications, as it leaves your keys exposed. Use this alternative method only for quick testing or in a safe, password-protected environment.

Next Steps

Once you have successfully set your environment variable, you can run your Flask application, and it will use the OPENAI_API_KEY when making API calls.

If you still have trouble locating the environment variables or you experience any other issues, please let me know!
