Llama function calls

Body

I don't think that the llama 3.1 function calls are working at all. Followed the example available here

Got no function calls at all when using some open models like Llama 3.1 (8b and 70b), no matter what i did. Command R Plus also throws an error to the same script, even though it actually calls the function.

Code

from openai import OpenAI

token = os.environ["GITHUB_TOKEN"]
endpoint = "https://models.inference.ai.azure.com"
model_name = "gpt-4o-mini"
model_name = "cohere-command-r-plus"
model_name = "Mistral-nemo"
model_name = "meta-llama-3.1-8b-instruct"

llama3.1 function calling is unique, unless it's supported by the OpenAI library it won't work and I don't believe it is. If we had a way to send in "raw" messages, then you can format the prompt accordingly to get tool working to work. Feasible if you're running the model locally
