OpenAI's latest npm package introduces a new ranker option for file search ('default_2024_08_21'), detailed chunking controls for file search (chunk_overlap_tokens, max tokens per chunk), and explicitly defines 'code_interpreter' and 'file_search' tool types. It also mentions JSON mode with important usage notes and an 'event' emission model.
READY TO POST:
openai's new npm update seems to hint at more control over file search, with new 'ranker' options and chunking parameters like chunk_overlap_tokens. might mean more precise RAG.
json mode in the openai client is getting more explicit! the new types for 'code_interpreter' and 'file_search' tools also look interesting. good to see finer-grained control and event emission for object state changes.
