Prompt response issue

Hi,

I used SnapGPT to ask about what snap to use. In this case, the File Operation Snap. I wanted to know if I could use a File Operation Snap to move a file from one folder to another folder in a Windows server using SMB.

I tried the answer/suggestion but the validation failed. Your thoughts, please.

Thanks.

  • Hi @heidi.andrew,

    Appreciate your response.

    Yes, you are right. The documentation states that the File Operation snap does not support SMB. I also did the same approach as you suggested.

    What I wanted to point out is the response given by SnapGPT, which in this case is incorrect.

  • Hello @marenas, thank you for sharing this observation. I’m lookin into it on our side. One quick question for you on the protocol - it looks like it is smb:// with only two slashes, is that right?

  • I do not think the snap will support MOVE in SMB. I believe the documentation shows that. I have done this by using two snaps–file reader and file writer. I pulled the file that I wanted to move into the reader then wrote the file via the file writer. It worked fine.

  • Hi @marenas, you are correct that SnapGPT/ChatGPT had a hallucination in this situation. Most if not all generative AI solutions can have hallucinations and we’re working on some ways to reduce and/or eliminate these situations as we keep training the models. In the shorter term, we are also exploring ways to empower SnapGPT users to quickly “trust but verify,” as the saying goes, in order to fact-check a response.

    One way we are testing internally is to include sources at the bottom of the SnapGPT response. Do you think that would be helpful and/or do you have any other ideas we could consider?

      Hi @rsramkoski ,

      Yes, the inclusion of sources would be helpful. Adding a response that gives SnapGPT users a brief explanation of a particular snap’s limitations is also helpful.
