This document details the features, best practices, and migration guidance for GPT-5, OpenAI's most intelligent model. It covers new API features like minimal reasoning effort, verbosity control, custom tools, and allowed tools, along with prompting guidance and migration strategies from older models and APIs.
A detailed blog post discussing OpenAI's newly released open-weight GPT models, including performance benchmarks, initial testing on various hardware (Mac laptops, Cerebras), and comparisons to other open-source models. It covers aspects like reasoning capabilities, tool calling, and the new OpenAI Harmony prompt format.
LLM 0.26 introduces tool support, allowing LLMs to access and utilize Python functions as tools. The article details how to install, configure, and use these tools with various LLMs like OpenAI, Anthropic, Gemini, and Ollama models, including examples with plugins and ad-hoc functions. It also discusses the implications for building 'agents' and future development plans.
This article details the Model Context Protocol (MCP), a new approach to integrating Large Language Models (LLMs) like Azure OpenAI with tools. MCP focuses on structured data exchange to improve reliability, observability, and functionality, moving beyond simple text-in, text-out interactions. It aims to standardize how LLMs interact with tools, enhancing their ability to utilize those tools effectively.
