Spring AI

• Module for building applications using LLM for easy AI integration into Spring Framework
• Builds Enterprise-Grade AI applications
• spring-ai docs here

Using OpenAI with spring-ai

• Account Setup
  • Create OpenAI account
  • create APIkey and store it as env variable
  • check the playground and do compare by asking same question - What is an LLM?
    • 4o vs 4o-mini
    • 4o gives options
    • 4o-mini assumed we asked for Large Language Model
• Install Java 24 using sdkman sdk list java and sdk install java 24.0.1-tem
• clone instructor's project here
• org.springframework.ai:spring-ai-starter-model-openai and property spring.ai.openai.api-key=${OPENAI_KEY}
• ChatClient calls internally OpenAI chat completion endpoint here
• Promt, Tokens and Tokenizations
  • user prompt -> tokenizations -> Processing using Transformer Architecture -> Generate Tokens -> De-tokenization -> output
• importatnt params - temprature (lower is more relvant response), max_completion_tokens
• Prompt - User Message + System Message + Assistant Message
  • system message like *SystemMessage("You are a helpful assistant, who can answer java based questions. For any other questions, please respond with I don't know in a funny way!");
• Streaming ChatClient response (Async - Non blocking) using Flux in response instead of sync response Object
• conversation - What's my name return don't know an

ChatClient.builder().build()
.prompt()
.user(userInput.prompt())
.system(systemMessage)
.call()
.content()
