Flask Chatbot with GPT-4

This is a Flask-based chatbot application that uses OpenAI's GPT-4 model for generating responses. The application uses Flask-SocketIO for real-time communication between the server and the client.

Environment Variables

• SYSTEM_CONTENT: Configuration of the chat bot, e.g. "Act as a sales bot. Try to collect name, company and phone number. My company Acme Inc. info: " (Optional)
• TEMPERATURE: Controls the randomness of the model's output. Higher values (e.g., 2) make the output more random, while lower values (e.g., 0) make it more deterministic. Default is 0.75.
• MODEL: The name of the OpenAI model to use. Default is "gpt-4".
• OPENAI_API_KEY: Your OpenAI API key, which can be obtained from the OpenAI website.
