Project Overview
The application offers a variety of features, including:
- User Authentication: Secure login and registration with Firebase.
- Shopping Cart: Interactive shopping experience with a cart system and Stripe payment integration.
- Blog Platform: Users can create, edit, and delete blog posts, with the option to use OpenAI's assistance to generate post content based on prompts, making content creation quicker and more insightful.
- Games: Fun mini-games like Blackjack, Memory Matching, and Simon Says.
- AI Features: Chatbot assistance, product recommendations, and educational insights powered by OpenAI.
- Machine Learning: Client-side image classification using TensorFlow.js and the MobileNet model.
MobileNet Classifier Integration
I'm using TensorFlow.js to perform real-time image classification directly in the browser. By integrating the pre-trained MobileNet model, users receive immediate feedback on product categories when they interact with merchandise images.
How It Works:
- Model Loading: The MobileNet model is loaded asynchronously when the component mounts.
- Image Classification: When a user selects a product, the model classifies the image and predicts the category.
- Display Prediction: The predicted category is displayed to the user, enhancing the shopping experience with AI-driven insights.
Example Code:
const classifyImage = async (imagePath) => {
const img = new Image();
img.src = imagePath;
img.onload = async () => {
const predictions = await model.classify(img);
if (predictions.length > 0) {
setPrediction(predictions[0].className);
} else {
setPrediction("Unable to classify image");
}
};
};
Chatbot Assistance and Product Recommendations
The backend utilizes the OpenAI API to offer intelligent features:
- Chatbot Interaction: Users can ask questions and receive responses generated by OpenAI's GPT-3.5-turbo model.
- Product Recommendations: When users view a product, the system suggests similar items based on the product category.
How It Works:
- Chatbot Service: Handles user messages and fetches responses from OpenAI.
- Recommendation Engine: Generates personalized product suggestions using OpenAI's language models.
Example Code:
try {
const response = await openai.chat.completions.create({
model: "gpt-3.5-turbo",
messages: [{ role: "user", content: message }],
});
return response.choices[0].message.content.trim();
} catch (error) {
console.error("Error fetching response from GPT:", error);
return "Sorry, I couldn't process your request. Please try
again.";
}
};
Educational Insights with OpenAI
When a user clicks "Learn More" on a product, the application fetches educational content about the item.
How It Works & Benefits:
- Content Generation: Sends a prompt to OpenAI to generate informative content about the product.
- User Display: Presents the generated insights in a user-friendly modal.
- Enhanced User Experience: Provides valuable information, enriching the shopping process.
- Personalization: Tailors content based on user interests and interactions.
How These Technologies Enhance the Application
- Real-Time AI Interaction: Users receive instant feedback and assistance without noticeable delays.
- Client-Side Processing: TensorFlow.js handles computations in the browser, reducing server load.
- Advanced Features: OpenAI integration brings sophisticated AI capabilities without extensive development.
Integrating OpenAI and TensorFlow.js into my fullstack project has significantly elevated the application's functionality and user engagement. I'm able to provide interactive, intelligent features that enhance the overall user experience.
The goal is to launch it live for beta testing later this month, inviting users to be among the first to explore its features and provide valuable feedback.
