# Intro to Workbooks

## What is a workbook in LastMile AI?&#x20;

A workbook enables you to string together various generative AI models to build powerful applications. In a workbook, you can connect text, image, and audio models in a single environment.&#x20;

## Composing with cells&#x20;

Workbooks are made up of a series of cells. Each cell has its own cell type:&#x20;

* **Model cells** are used to prompt generative AI models and output responses which can then be copied as inputs into sequential cells. There are two types of model cells:&#x20;
  * &#x20;*Standard model cells* are used to prompt supported generative AI models like GPT-3.5 Turbo (ChatGPT), PaLM2, Stable Diffusion v1.4, Bark, Whisper, and DALL-E2. Each model cell takes in a prompt that is unique to the input modality (text, audio) required by the model. For example, a ChatGPT cell takes in text input and returns text output and a Whisper cell takes in an audio input and return a text output.&#x20;
  * *Custom model cells* are used to prompt models that you have customized with your own data.&#x20;
* **Text cells** allow you to compose formatted text.&#x20;

Cells can easily be added to your workbook via the add block (+) menu.

## Executing cells to generate results

You need to execute the cell in order to see the output. You do this in the following ways:&#x20;

* Click the **Play** button on the cell.
* Press **Enter** on your keyboard while focused on a cell.&#x20;

## Adjusting settings for model cells&#x20;

You can access a set of model settings in the cell's setting menu. The settings available are specific to the model, so it's always worth exploring this menu.&#x20;
