Welcome to the world of DialOp Environments, where humans and AI agents engage in collaborative decision-oriented dialogues. In this blog, we will explore how to get started with DialOp, particularly the game-playing aspect using GPT-3, alongside troubleshooting tips to guide you through any potential hiccups.

Getting Started with DialOp

To dive into the DialOp environments, you’ll first need to set up your system. Follow these steps to install and play games with GPT-3 as your assistant:

• Install the DialOp package by running the following command in your terminal:

pip install -e .

• Set your API key to allow communication with GPT-3:

python dialop api_key

• Now, you can play games with GPT-3 by executing:

python dialop play_gpt3.py --game optimization, planning, mediation

Understanding the DialOp Environment

Think of DialOp environments as interactive board games where the pieces are discussions rather than tokens. Each environment is designed to provide unique challenges:

• **Optimization**: Imagine you are the referee in a competition who needs to assign the best reviewers for the best papers. It’s a balancing act of expertise and availability.
• **Planning**: Think of this as an adventure game where you need to craft the best itinerary to see all the landmarks, but with the constraint of spending the least time and money.
• **Mediation**: This resembles being a travel agent juggling flight schedules for a group of friends, aiming for options that suit everyone.

The environments consist of:

• Games: Define game logic and generate environment data.
• Env: Text-based interfaces for games.
• Apps: Web app interfaces for human interactions.

Playing the Games

You can engage with DialOp environments in two ways:

Text-Based Environment

To compete against yourself using the text-based system, execute:

python dialop play.py --game optimization, planning, mediation

Web-Based UI

To take advantage of the web UI, navigate to the appropriate directories and run:

cd dialop apps game=optimization, planning, mediation flask run

Note: For planning tasks, ensure you have access to a MapboxGL access key by configuring it in staticclient.js and staticmap.js to utilize map features effectively.

Accessing Human-Human Dialogues

To explore human-human dialogues, simply unzip the dialopdata.zip file that accompanies your installation.

Troubleshooting DialOp

While utilizing the DialOp environments, you may come across some common issues:

• Issues when running Flask: Make sure your Flask application is properly set up and that you are in the correct directory.
• API errors: Double-check your API key and ensure it is correctly configured.
• Map visualization problems: Ensure your MapboxGL access key is active and appropriately placed in the JavaScript files.
