# ThinkPad 🪐
A simple, interactive chatbot with thinking mode.

**Project built with [JumpLander](https://jumplander.org)**

---

## Overview
NovaTalk is an interactive chatbot that uses a Hugging Face Inference API model to generate natural responses.  
It features a "thinking" mode to simulate a more human-like conversation flow.

- **Thinking Mode**: Delays response for a short time to simulate thinking.
- **Safe & Lightweight**: Runs entirely using Hugging Face Inference API, no heavy GPU needed.
- **Easy to Configure**: Set the model and token in Hugging Face Spaces Variables & Secrets.

---

## How to Use
1. Enter your message in the chat box.
2. Toggle "Thinking mode" if you want a small delay before the bot replies.
3. The bot will generate a response using the selected HF model.

---

## Configuration

Set the following **Variables & Secrets** in your Hugging Face Space:

| Name            | Type    | Description |
|-----------------|---------|-------------|
| HF_API_TOKEN     | Secret | Your Hugging Face API token |
| GPT_MODEL_ID     | Variable | The model ID to use for chat (e.g., `HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-7b-beta`) |

---

## Example
```python
# Example Python usage (if you want to use outside Gradio)
from huggingface_hub import InferenceClient

client = InferenceClient(model="HuggingFaceH4/zephyr-7b-beta", token="YOUR_HF_API_TOKEN")
response = client.text_generation("Hello, how are you?")
print(response)
