In this week’s update we are happy to announce that prototype 1 of our JAWS CoPilot is complete. We have successfully deployed and connected both Pinecone and ChatGPT with our codebase which means that it is accessible to both you and me! We go into more detail down below.

Prototype 1

As a team we worked on finally being able to deploy our first version of JAWS CoPilot. Our website is reachable with the link provided: JAWS CoPilot. You will need an OpenAI key in order to access the LLM. In terms of prototype 1’s capabilities, a user may can ask any question they would like, and the CoPilot will do its best to search inside our corpus compiled of a variety of documents related to JAWS. If the CoPilot cannot find what the user is looking for then it will let the user know that their question is not currently included in Copilot’s capabilities as of yet. If the answer is indeed found by CoPilot, it is then returned to the user in a readable text format. This is something we will definitely have to change the in future as our product is meant to be made for visually-impaired users however this is a good start.

Hope to see you back next week on this journey. Chao!
