here we'll see how to get the response in a stream we did this as well with Google and open AI so we could introduce this feature in our application so the users of our application don't have to wait for the full response to be generated they can start reading it while it's created and here we are creating this stream so it's basically creating the model but in a stream mode and here we will get every text every chunk of text uh while it's generated we'll sit here like this like printing every chunk of text and then we'll put these dashes only now here to understand that it's really streaming but we won't do this in our application so uh here we are only asking hello but it's streaming here hello how can I assist you today feel free to ask specific and uh well it's longer than that but we can see here that the clo API is streaming so much faster the responses so it's not waiting for longer Chun of text to be sent okay now let's see how
