Remove reference from answer in GPT-4 model

Question

When using the GPT-4 model to answer questions based on the index, the model provides answers with references to source files.

In this video https://www.youtube.com/live/KoewzwEPUM0?si=0rqwSdYQLufesLPw in Chat playground you can see that the model answers without the reference to the file and only writes at the beginning of the answer : "According to the retrieved document"

How can I get the answer from the model without the reference?

Thanks

Hi YR-9279,

Thanks for the wonderful question. In addition to the ajkuma's answer, We dont have option to remove the 'Reference' from the answer. We will not option to remove Reference instead, we can train the model with our own data for the reply that it has to do with the help of fine tuning the model.

We will be able to load the enterprise related customization aswell into the Azure OpenAI chat that what we are developing. We will have the Knowledge base been trained under our data such that, the system message is been indicated with the data that is related to our enterprise. This actually helps you in the customization in which you can refer to the proper thing that what you need to refer, instead of avoiding the referring in Azure OpenAI.

@YR-9279 , Currently, you cannot remove the Reference' from the answer. I have also relayed this feedback to our engineering team.

However, you may customize the experience with the web app: Web app customization.

Just to highlight, if you are not using the Microsoft webapp chatbot code and using a third party webapp/custom developed webapp project using the Azure OpenAI Service APIs directly, then you could customize in how you choose to present the root message and citations information. The quickstart shows a rudimentary example of that : Quickstart: Chat with Azure OpenAI models using your own data | Sample app

We appreciate your feedback!
