Google Cloud Vertex AI

Note: This is separate from the Google Generative AI integration, it exposes Vertex AI Generative API on Google Cloud.

VertexAI exposes all foundational models available in google cloud:

• Gemini (gemini-pro and gemini-pro-vision)
• Palm 2 for Text (text-bison)
• Codey for Code Generation (code-bison)

For a full and updated list of available models visit VertexAI documentation

Setup

By default, Google Cloud does not use customer data to train its foundation models as part of Google Cloud's AI/ML Privacy Commitment. More details about how Google processes data can also be found in Google's Customer Data Processing Addendum (CDPA).

To use Vertex AI Generative AI you must have the langchain-google-vertexai Python package installed and either:

• Have credentials configured for your environment (gcloud, workload identity, etc...)
• Store the path to a service account JSON file as the GOOGLE_APPLICATION_CREDENTIALS environment variable

This codebase uses the google.auth library which first looks for the application credentials variable mentioned above, and then looks for system-level auth.

For more information, see:

• https://cloud.google.com/docs/authentication/application-default-credentials#GAC
• https://googleapis.dev/python/google-auth/latest/reference/google.auth.html#module-google.auth

%pip install --upgrade --quiet  langchain-core langchain-google-vertexai

Note: you may need to restart the kernel to use updated packages.

Usage

VertexAI supports all LLM functionality.

from langchain_google_vertexai import VertexAI

# To use model

OPTIONAL : Managing Safety Attributes

• If your use case requires your to manage thresholds for saftey attributes, you can do so using below snippets

  NOTE : We recommend exercising extreme caution when adjusting Safety Attributes thresholds

from langchain_google_vertexai import HarmBlockThreshold, HarmCategory

safety_settings = {
    HarmCategory.HARM_CATEGORY_UNSPECIFIED: HarmBlockThreshold.BLOCK_NONE,
    HarmCategory.HARM_CATEGORY_DANGEROUS_CONTENT: HarmBlockThreshold.BLOCK_NONE,

You can also easily combine with a prompt template for easy structuring of user input. We can do this using LCEL

from langchain_core.prompts import PromptTemplate

template = """Question: {question}

Answer: Let's think step by step."""
prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template(template)

chain = prompt | model

question = """
I have five apples. I throw two away. I eat one. How many apples do I have left?
"""
print(chain.invoke({"question": question}))

API Reference:

• PromptTemplate

1. You start with 5 apples.
2. You throw away 2 apples, so you have 5 - 2 = 3 apples left.
3. You eat 1 apple, so you have 3 - 1 = 2 apples left.

Therefore, you have 2 apples left.

You can use different foundational models for specialized in different tasks. For an updated list of available models visit VertexAI documentation

llm = VertexAI(model_name="code-bison", max_tokens=1000, temperature=0.3)
question = "Write a python function that checks if a string is a valid email address"
print(model.invoke(question))

```python
import re

def is_valid_email(email):
  """
  Checks if a string is a valid email address.

  Args:
    email: The string to check.

  Returns:
    True if the string is a valid email address, False otherwise.
  """

  # Compile the regular expression for an email address.
  regex = re.compile(r"[^@]+@[^@]+\.[^@]+")

  # Check if the string matches the regular expression.
  return regex.match(email) is not None

## Multimodality

With Gemini, you can use LLM in a multimodal mode:


```python
from langchain_core.messages import HumanMessage
from langchain_google_vertexai import ChatVertexAI

llm = ChatVertexAI(model="gemini-pro-vision")

image_message = {
    "type": "image_url",
    "image_url": {"url": "image_example.jpg"},
}
text_message = {
    "type": "text",
    "text": "What is shown in this image?",
}
message = HumanMessage(content=[text_message, image_message])

output = llm.invoke([message])
print(output.content)

API Reference:

• HumanMessage

 This is a Yorkshire Terrier.

Let's double-check it's a cat :)

from vertexai.preview.generative_models import Image

i = Image.load_from_file("image_example.jpg")
i

You can also pass images as bytes:

import base64

with open("image_example.jpg", "rb") as image_file:
    image_bytes = image_file.read()

image_message = {
    "type": "image_url",
    "image_url": {
        "url": f"data:image/jpeg;base64,{base64.b64encode(image_bytes).decode('utf-8')}"
    },
}
text_message = {
    "type": "text",
    "text": "What is shown in this image?",
}
message = HumanMessage(content=[text_message, image_message])

output = llm.invoke([message])
print(output.content)

 This is a Yorkshire Terrier.

Please, note that you can also use the image stored in GCS (just point the url to the full GCS path, starting with gs:// instead of a local one).

And you can also pass a history of a previous chat to the LLM:

message2 = HumanMessage(content="And where the image is taken?")
output2 = llm.invoke([message, output, message2])
print(output2.content)

You can also use the public image URL:

image_message = {
    "type": "image_url",
    "image_url": {
        "url": "https://python.langchain.com/assets/images/cell-18-output-1-0c7fb8b94ff032d51bfe1880d8370104.png",
    },
}
text_message = {
    "type": "text",
    "text": "What is shown in this image?",
}
message = HumanMessage(content=[text_message, image_message])

output = llm.invoke([message])
print(output.content)

Vertex Model Garden

Vertex Model Garden exposes open-sourced models that can be deployed and served on Vertex AI. If you have successfully deployed a model from Vertex Model Garden, you can find a corresponding Vertex AI endpoint in the console or via API.

from langchain_google_vertexai import VertexAIModelGarden

llm = VertexAIModelGarden(project="YOUR PROJECT", endpoint_id="YOUR ENDPOINT_ID")

llm.invoke("What is the meaning of life?")

Like all LLMs, we can then compose it with other components:

prompt = PromptTemplate.from_template("What is the meaning of {thing}?")

chain = prompt | llm
print(chain.invoke({"thing": "life"}))

Anthropic on Vertex AI

Anthropic Claude 3 models on Vertex AI offer fully managed and serverless models as APIs. To use a Claude model on Vertex AI, send a request directly to the Vertex AI API endpoint. Because Anthropic Claude 3 models use a managed API, there's no need to provision or manage infrastructure.

NOTE : Anthropic Models on Vertex are implemented as Chat Model through class ChatAnthropicVertex

!pip install -U langchain-google-vertexai anthropic[vertex]

from langchain_core.messages import (
    AIMessage,
    AIMessageChunk,
    HumanMessage,
    SystemMessage,
)
from langchain_core.outputs import LLMResult
from langchain_google_vertexai.model_garden import ChatAnthropicVertex

API Reference:

• AIMessage
• AIMessageChunk
• HumanMessage
• SystemMessage
• LLMResult

NOTE : Specify the correct Claude 3 Model Versions

• For Claude 3 Opus (Preview), use claude-3-opus@20240229.
• For Claude 3 Sonnet, use claude-3-sonnet@20240229.
• For Claude 3 Haiku, use claude-3-haiku@20240307.

We don't recommend using the Anthropic Claude 3 model versions that don't include a suffix that starts with an @ symbol (claude-3-opus, claude-3-sonnet, or claude-3-haiku).

# TODO : Replace below with your project id and region
project = "<project_id>"
location = "<region>"

# Initialise the Model
model = ChatAnthropicVertex(
    model_name="claude-3-haiku@20240307",
    project=project,
    location=location,
)

# prepare input data for the model
raw_context = (
    "My name is Peter. You are my personal assistant. My favorite movies "
    "are Lord of the Rings and Hobbit."
)
question = (
    "Hello, could you recommend a good movie for me to watch this evening, please?"
)
context = SystemMessage(content=raw_context)
message = HumanMessage(content=question)

# Invoke the model
response = model.invoke([context, message])
print(response.content)

Since your favorite movies are the Lord of the Rings and Hobbit trilogies, I would recommend checking out some other epic fantasy films that have a similar feel:

1. The Chronicles of Narnia series - These films are based on the beloved fantasy novels by C.S. Lewis and have a great blend of adventure, magic, and memorable characters.

2. Stardust - This 2007 fantasy film, based on the Neil Gaiman novel, has an excellent cast and a charming, whimsical tone.

3. The Golden Compass - The first film adaptation of Philip Pullman's His Dark Materials series, with stunning visuals and a compelling story.

4. Pan's Labyrinth - Guillermo del Toro's dark, fairy tale-inspired masterpiece set against the backdrop of the Spanish Civil War.

5. The Princess Bride - A classic fantasy adventure film with humor, romance, and unforgettable characters.

Let me know if any of those appeal to you or if you'd like me to suggest something else! I'm happy to provide more personalized recommendations.

# You can choose to initialize/ override the model name on Invoke method as well
response = model.invoke([context, message], model_name="claude-3-sonnet@20240229")
print(response.content)

Sure, I'd be happy to recommend a movie for you! Since you mentioned that The Lord of the Rings and The Hobbit are among your favorite movies, I'll suggest some other epic fantasy/adventure films you might enjoy:

1. The Princess Bride (1987) - A classic fairy tale with adventure, romance, and a lot of wit and humor. It has an all-star cast and very quotable lines.

2. Willow (1988) - A fun fantasy film produced by George Lucas with fairies, dwarves, and brownies going on an epic quest. Has a similar tone to the Lord of the Rings movies.

3. Stardust (2007) - An underrated fantasy adventure based on the Neil Gaiman novel about a young man entering a magical kingdom to retrieve a fallen star. Great cast and visuals.

4. The Chronicles of Narnia series - The Lion, The Witch and The Wardrobe is the best known, but the other Narnia films are also very well done fantasy epics.

5. The Golden Compass (2007) - First installment of the His Dark Materials trilogy, set in a parallel universe with armored polar bears and truth-seeking devices.

Let me know if you'd like any other suggestions or have a particular style of movie in mind! I aimed for entertaining fantasy/adventure flicks similar to Lord of the Rings.
