This GitHub repository hosts an innovative project: a virtual assistant powered by OpenAI's GPT-3.5-Turbo-0613 language model. The assistant is designed for speech-to-speech interaction, seamlessly working in Spanish, which makes it highly accessible and user-friendly for Spanish-speaking users. The core functionality revolves around understanding spoken Spanish queries and responding verbally, offering a hands-free, conversational experience. Additionally, this virtual assistant is capable of performing a wide range of tasks thanks to its integration with the OpenAI API.
To run this project, you need to:
- Clone or download this repository.
- Optionally, create a virtual environment for better dependency management.
- Install the necessary dependencies by running the command:
pip install -r requirements.txt- Create a .env file in the project root.
- In the
.envfile, add the following keys as per the requirements of the project demonstrated in the video (and this repository):
OPENAI_API_KEY=XXXXXX
ELEVENLABS_API_KEY=XXXXXX
WEATHER_API_KEY=XXXXXXThere are several aspects of the project you might want to customize, such as:
- In the LLM class, there is an option to modify the assistant's speech to avoid inappropriate language. This is used in two places in the file.
- In the PcCommand class, Chrome is opened by searching for its executable in a fixed path for Windows. You can modify this to locate the executable on Mac/Linux systems.
This project uses Flask as its web framework. You can start the server in debug mode on the default port (5000) using the command:
flask --app app run --debugTo interact with the assistant:
- Open your browser and navigate to http://localhost:5000.
- Click to start recording (it will ask for permission). Click again to stop recording.
