  Carlsbad, California, United States • Led and developed a customer service agent using OpenAI’s GPT models and proprietary machine learning models to automatically answer patient questions related to Canary’s smart implant for Total Knee Arthroplasty. • Prompt engineered 'gpt-3.5-turbo' model to shape behavior, utilizing context and instructional prompts, and few-shot techniques. • Trained a Naive Bayes classification model on Frequently Asked Questions data to predict the category of a user’s question using OpenAI's… Show more • Led and developed a customer service agent using OpenAI’s GPT models and proprietary machine learning models to automatically answer patient questions related to Canary’s smart implant for Total Knee Arthroplasty. • Prompt engineered 'gpt-3.5-turbo' model to shape behavior, utilizing context and instructional prompts, and few-shot techniques. • Trained a Naive Bayes classification model on Frequently Asked Questions data to predict the category of a user’s question using OpenAI's embeddings model, 'text-embedding-ada-002'. Categorization is used to retrieve prominent information from a separate database to guide the GPT model to answer the user’s question, drastically minimizing hallucinations. • Compared performance of current implementation of customer service agent with Pinecone Vector Database.
