In this video, we delve into OpenAI’s latest API update introducing structured outputs. We explore how it differs from JSON mode by ensuring outputs conform to provided schemas, and discuss its implications for developers. Key topics include function calling, response format parameters, and safety measures. We also cover limitations like additional latency on first requests and potential model hallucinations. Discover how this innovation can simplify data extraction and enhance application reliability.
