DuetGPT may generate commands that require manual oversight before execution. - In situations requiring strict control over function calls, as it relies on the OpenAI API's function calling feature, which might not fully cover specific enterprise workflows. ## Common questions ### What is the difference between gpt_academic and duet-gpt? gpt_academic: 提供实用化交互接口，优化论文阅读/润色/写作体验. duet-gpt: A conversational semi-autonomous developer assistant..
