Before jumping into the technical aspects, the video emphasizes the importance of subscribing for more insights on building OpenAI-powered projects and leveraging its capabilities effectively.
Types of Structured Output
Structured outputs are available in two main forms within the OpenAI API:
Function Calling: Best for interactive applications where the model needs to interact with external tools or databases. This allows the model to trigger functions based on user requests, enabling sophisticated data handling.
JSON Schema Response Format: Ideal for scenarios where structured data is required for display purposes. This is particularly useful in applications such as tutoring systems, where outputs need to follow a specific schema.
