An LLM-based application can process language in a way that resembles thought. But if you want to extend its capabilities to take actions by running other functions you have coded, you will need to use function calling. This can also be referred to as tool use. Additionally, you can give a model the ability to search Google or search a data store of documents to ground its responses. In other words, to base its answers on that information. In this course, you’ll explore these concepts.
