# No Tool Mode

> Utilizes only the language model's prior knowledge without relying on external documents or sources.

Utilizes only the language model's prior knowledge without relying on external documents or sources.

## When to Use It

* For general knowledge questions
* To generate creative content (texts, ideas, scenarios)
* For reformulation or rewriting tasks
* To obtain conceptual explanations

## How to Activate It

* This mode is activated by default when you prompt and the assistant understands that it doesn't need a tool to respond.
* Possibility to force the no-tool mode by selecting the "no\_tool" option in the tool selection menu.

## Effective Formulation

* Ask your questions as you would to an expert
* Be specific about the desired format and level of detail
* Use user instructions to customize the response style

## Understanding the Results

* Responses rely solely on the knowledge the model acquired during its pre-training.
* No documentary source will be cited because no document is consulted.
* Responses reflect the state of the model's knowledge at the time of its training.

## Limitations

* The model cannot access recent information or information specific to your company that was not included in its training.
* Without access to documents, responses may lack precision on questions very specific to your context.
* The model may potentially generate incorrect information on complex or specialized topics without being able to verify in sources.
