Memory in the Multi-Input Chain

Most memory objects assume a single input. In this notebook, we go over how to add memory to a chain that has multiple inputs. We will add memory to a question/answering chain. This chain takes as inputs both related documents and a user question.

from langchain.embeddings.openai import OpenAIEmbeddings
from langchain.text_splitter import CharacterTextSplitter
from langchain.vectorstores import Chroma

with open("../../state_of_the_union.txt") as f:
    state_of_the_union = f.read()
text_splitter = CharacterTextSplitter(chunk_size=1000, chunk_overlap=0)
texts = text_splitter.split_text(state_of_the_union)

embeddings = OpenAIEmbeddings()

docsearch = Chroma.from_texts(
    texts, embeddings, metadatas=[{"source": i} for i in range(len(texts))]
)

Running Chroma using direct local API.
Using DuckDB in-memory for database. Data will be transient.

query = "What did the president say about Justice Breyer"
docs = docsearch.similarity_search(query)

Human: What did the president say about Justice Breyer
AI:  Tonight, I’d like to honor someone who has dedicated his life to serve this country: Justice Stephen Breyer—an Army veteran, Constitutional scholar, and retiring Justice of the United States Supreme Court. Justice Breyer, thank you for your service.
