Sequential chains with LCEL

With your prompt templates created, it's time to tie everything together, including the LLM, using chains and LCEL. An llm has already been defined for you that uses OpenAI's gpt-4o-mini model

For the final step of calling the chain, feel free to insert any activity you wish! If you're struggling for ideas, try inputting "play the harmonica".

Oefeninstructies

Create a sequential chain using LCEL that passes learning_prompt into the llm, and feeds the output into time_prompt for resending to the llm.
The first part should create a dictionary with "learning_plan" as the key and the first chain as the value.
Call the chain using the .invoke() method with the activity of your choice!

learning_prompt = PromptTemplate(
    input_variables=["activity"],
    template="I want to learn how to {activity}. Can you suggest how I can learn this step-by-step?"
)

time_prompt = PromptTemplate(
    input_variables=["learning_plan"],
    template="I only have one week. Can you create a concise plan to help me hit this goal: {learning_plan}."
)

# Complete the sequential chain with LCEL
seq_chain = ({"learning_plan": ____ | ____ | ____}
    | ____
    | ____
    | StrOutputParser())

# Call the chain
print(seq_chain.____({"____": "____"}))

Welcome to the LangChain framework for building applications on LLMs! You'll learn about the main components of LangChain, including models, chains, agents, prompts, and parsers. You'll create chatbots using both open-source models from Hugging Face and proprietary models from OpenAI, create prompt templates, and integrate different chatbot memory strategies to manage context and resources during conversations.

Time to level up your LangChain chains! You'll learn to use the LangChain Expression Language (LCEL) for defining chains with greater flexibility. You'll create sequential chains, where inputs are passed between components to create more advanced applications. You'll also begin to integrate agents, which use LLMs for decision-making.

One limitation of LLMs is that they have a knowledge cut-off due to being trained on data up to a certain point. In this chapter, you'll learn to create applications that use Retrieval Augmented Generation (RAG) to integrate external data with LLMs. The RAG workflow contains a few different processes, including splitting data, creating and storing the embeddings using a vector database, and retrieving the most relevant information for use in the application. You'll learn to master the entire workflow!
