March 15th update: 🌐Internet Access for Assistants

Assistants on HuggingChat

Today we are releasing Assistants on HuggingChat!

Assistants are a fun way to package your prompts and share them with the world.

Browse featured Assistants here: https://huggingface.co/chat/assistants

Create your first Assistant

Create your first Assistant using this form: https://huggingface.co/chat/settings/assistants/new
All you have to do is choose a model, a name, and a system prompt and you are ready to go! Note that all Assistants are public by default with the author's name.

The most powerful feature of Assistants is that they are based on open source models (of course!), so don't hesitate to switch between one of the 6 available models to see which one better suits the type of Assistant you want!

Share your Assistants with the community

The easiest way to make people try your Assistant is simply to share its direct URL present in the Assistant setting.

If you want to share your Assistants with the community or give advice on how to create one, use the dedicated thread and get a chance to be featured on the Assistants page:
