text column ready as context. Next, we’ll generate word embeddings for each sentence, compute similarities, and dynamically build context for OpenAI API calls—all using a pandas DataFrame.
1. Generate Embeddings for the text Column
Use your embedding function to vectorize each row in the DataFrame:
Generating embeddings for a large dataset may take some time. For 121 rows, expect multiple API calls.
embedding column:
2. Define a Similarity Function
We’ll use the dot product to measure vector similarity:3. Querying the DataFrame with Similarity Search
When asking a question (e.g., “Who won the Best Picture award?”), follow these steps:- Embed the query
- Compute similarity against each row
- Select top candidates
4. Build the Context Block
Concatenate the top candidates into one string:6. Resources and References
This workflow—building dynamic context from a DataFrame using embeddings, then crafting prompts on the fly—unlocks powerful generative AI applications with OpenAI.
