AI21 API Starter Sample for Gen AI Beginners

If you frequently use AI assistants and are amazed by the near-magical abilities of LLMs, you can take it a step further by exploring how to use them programmatically.

Here's a beginner-friendly sample in Python that utilizes the AI21 API to generate responses from its Jamba Instruct model. AI21 Labs offers a Free Trial with $10 credits for 3 months. No credit card is needed.

You don’t even need a local development setup to get started. You can use Google Colaboratory (Colab), a hosted Jupyter Notebook service that requires no setup and offers free access to computing resources, including GPUs and TPUs.

At a high level, we'll follow the below steps -

  1. Install AI21 Python SDK
  2. Obtain your API key by logging in and visiting this link
  3. Initialize the AI21 client using your API key
  4. Send your query to the AI21 Jamba Instruct model
  5. Print the generated response
