Through our system KIOS you have a Knowledge Base named crawl-2 with all the informations that the user requests. In this knowledge base are following Documents 

This is the initial message to start the chat. Based on the following summary/context you should formulate an initial message greeting the user with the following user name [Gender] [Vorname] [Surname] tell them that you are the AI Chatbot Simon using the Large Language Model [Used Model] to answer all questions.

Formulate the initial message in the Usersettings Language German

Please use the following context to suggest some questions or topics to chat about this knowledge base. List at least 3-10 possible topics or suggestions up and use emojis. The chat should be professional and in business terms.  At the end ask an open question what the user would like to check on the list.

# Build a RAG chatbot

This tutorial shows you how to build a simple RAG chatbot in Python using Pinecone for the vector database and embedding model, [OpenAI](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/openai) for the LLM, and [LangChain](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/langchain) for the RAG workflow.

To run through this tutorial in your browser, use [this colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/github/pinecone-io/examples/blob/master/docs/rag-getting-started.ipynb). For a more complex, multitenant RAG sample app and tutorial, see [Namespace Notes](/examples/sample-apps/namespace-notes).

How it works

GenAI chatbots built on Large Language Models (LLMs) can answer many questions. However, when the questions concern private data that the LLMs have not been trained on, you can get answers that sound convincing but are factually wrong. This behavior is referred to as “hallucination”.

# Build a RAG chatbot

This tutorial shows you how to build a simple RAG chatbot in Python using Pinecone for the vector database and embedding model, [OpenAI](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/openai) for the LLM, and [LangChain](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/langchain) for the RAG workflow.

To run through this tutorial in your browser, use [this colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/github/pinecone-io/examples/blob/master/docs/rag-getting-started.ipynb). For a more complex, multitenant RAG sample app and tutorial, see [Namespace Notes](/examples/sample-apps/namespace-notes).

How it works

GenAI chatbots built on Large Language Models (LLMs) can answer many questions. However, when the questions concern private data that the LLMs have not been trained on, you can get answers that sound convincing but are factually wrong. This behavior is referred to as “hallucination”.

# Build a RAG chatbot

This tutorial shows you how to build a simple RAG chatbot in Python using Pinecone for the vector database and embedding model, [OpenAI](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/openai) for the LLM, and [LangChain](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/langchain) for the RAG workflow.

To run through this tutorial in your browser, use [this colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/github/pinecone-io/examples/blob/master/docs/rag-getting-started.ipynb). For a more complex, multitenant RAG sample app and tutorial, see [Namespace Notes](/examples/sample-apps/namespace-notes).

How it works

GenAI chatbots built on Large Language Models (LLMs) can answer many questions. However, when the questions concern private data that the LLMs have not been trained on, you can get answers that sound convincing but are factually wrong. This behavior is referred to as “hallucination”.

# Build a RAG chatbot

This tutorial shows you how to build a simple RAG chatbot in Python using Pinecone for the vector database and embedding model, [OpenAI](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/openai) for the LLM, and [LangChain](https://docs.pinecone.io/integrations/langchain) for the RAG workflow.

To run through this tutorial in your browser, use [this colab notebook](https://colab.research.google.com/github/pinecone-io/examples/blob/master/docs/rag-getting-started.ipynb). For a more complex, multitenant RAG sample app and tutorial, see [Namespace Notes](/examples/sample-apps/namespace-notes).

Context: 1. Initialize a LangChain object for chatting with OpenAI’s `gpt-4o-mini` LLM. OpenAI is a paid service, so running the remainder of this tutorial may incur some small cost.  
Python  
Copy  
```  
from langchain_openai import ChatOpenAI  
from langchain.chains import create_retrieval_chain  
from langchain.chains.combine_documents import create_stuff_documents_chain  
from langchain import hub  
retrieval_qa_chat_prompt = hub.pull("langchain-ai/retrieval-qa-chat")  
retriever=docsearch.as_retriever()  
llm = ChatOpenAI(  
    openai_api_key=os.environ.get('OPENAI_API_KEY'),  
    model_name='gpt-4o-mini',  
    temperature=0.0  
)  
combine_docs_chain = create_stuff_documents_chain(  
    llm, retrieval_qa_chat_prompt  
)  
retrieval_chain = create_retrieval_chain(retriever, combine_docs_chain)  
```
2. Define a few questions about the WonderVector5000\. These questions require specific, private knowledge of the product, which the LLM does not have by default.  
Python  
Copy  
```  
query1 = "What are the first 3 steps for getting started with the WonderVector5000?"  
query2 = "The Neural Fandango Synchronizer is giving me a headache. What do I do?"  
```
3. Send `query1` to the LLM _without_ relevant context from Pinecone:  
Python  
Copy  
```  
answer1_without_knowledge = llm.invoke(query1)  
print("Query 1:", query1)  
print("\nAnswer without knowledge:\n\n", answer1_without_knowledge.content)  
print("\n")  
time.sleep(2)  
```

Python  
Copy

2. Define a few questions about the WonderVector5000\. These questions require specific, private knowledge of the product, which the LLM does not have by default.  
Python  
Copy  
```  
query1 = "What are the first 3 steps for getting started with the WonderVector5000?"  
query2 = "The Neural Fandango Synchronizer is giving me a headache. What do I do?"  
```
3. Send `query1` to the LLM _without_ relevant context from Pinecone:  
Python  
Copy  
```  
answer1_without_knowledge = llm.invoke(query1)  
print("Query 1:", query1)  
print("\nAnswer without knowledge:\n\n", answer1_without_knowledge.content)  
print("\n")  
time.sleep(2)  
```  
Notice that this first response sounds convincing but is entirely fabricated. This is an hallucination.

Query 1: What are the first 3 steps for getting started with the WonderVector5000?
