Chat with LLMs and prototype generative AI apps using AI Playground

Important

This feature is in Public Preview.

The AI Playground is a chat environment for Large Language Models (LLMs). In the playground, you can interactively test, prompt, and compare LLMs, as well as prototype tool-calling agents and question-answering bots.

Requirements

Your Databricks workspace must be in a region that supports Foundation Models. See Model serving regional availability.

Note

If Playground is not available in your workspace, reach out to your Databricks account team for more information.

Use AI Playground

To use the AI Playground:

1. Select Playground from the left navigation pane under AI/ML.
2. Select the model you want to interact with using the dropdown list on top.
3. You can do either of the following:
   1. Type in your question or prompt.
   2. Select a sample AI instruction from those listed in the window.
4. You can select the + to add an endpoint. Doing so allows you to compare multiple model responses side-by-side.
