v0.1-Alpha

[dayland]

This is the first Alpha release of the Information Assistant Accelerator. We believe we have achieved enough basic functionality for the accelerator to be deployed and provide these basic features:

• Chat and Q&A interfaces
• File Upload and automated chunking and indexing for PDF, HTML, and DOCX
• Explores various options to help users evaluate the trustworthiness of responses with citations, tracking of source content, etc.
• Shows possible approaches for data preparation, prompt construction, and orchestration of interaction between model (ChatGPT) and retriever (Cognitive Search)
• Settings directly in the UX to tweak the behavior and experiment with options
