OpenAI API Access

You need to acquire an OpenAI API key to use these procedures. Using them will incur costs on your OpenAI account. You can set the api key globally by defining the apoc.openai.key configuration in apoc.conf

Generate Embeddings API

This procedure apoc.ml.openai.embedding can take a list of text strings, and will return one row per string, with the embedding data as a 1536 element vector. It uses the /embeddings/create API which is documented here.

Additional configuration is passed to the API, the default model used is text-embedding-ada-002.

Generate Embeddings Call
CALL apoc.ml.openai.embedding(['Some Text'], $apiKey, {}) yield index, text, embedding;

The relationships allow users to express their preferences and opinions about movies. This schema can be compared to social media platforms where users can follow each other and leave reviews or ratings for movies they have watched. It can also be related to movie recommendation systems where user preferences and reviews play a crucial role in generating personalized recommendations." |
