2. Setting Up Your AI Assistant with Pabbly Connect

To create an AI assistant, you can use Pabbly Connect to streamline the process. From the left sidebar, select the option to create a new assistant. Give your assistant a name and click the “Add” button. This action will open a flow window where you can customize your assistant’s settings.

  • Set the AI model to OpenAI and select the appropriate version.

After setting the instruction type, you can adjust the AI settings. One key setting is the “Temperature,” which determines the creativity of the AI’s responses. A lower value, like 0.4, yields more focused answers, while higher values produce more creative responses.
