I Built AI App with Vercel's AI SDK (Tool Use & Vision)
Building a simple AI chatbot is one thing, but what about a chatbot that can see, calculate, and use custom tools? That's where the real power lies, and it's all possible with Vercel's AI SDK.
In this video, I'm extending the SaaS starter kit we built to create a lightweight, multi-modal AI chatbot. I'll show you how to implement custom tool usage for things like calculations and generating graphs, and how to give your chatbot vision to understand images using GPT-4o and Claude 3.5 Sonnet.
I'll also walk you through the real-world debugging process, including the versioning mistakes I made with the AI SDK so you can avoid them. This is a deep dive into building powerful, modern AI applications.
