What would you like to see?

I’d like to request a feature enhancement to the Generic Open AI LLM Provider in AnythingLLM. With the recent pull request that improved the API to allow images to be sent to workspaces via the API, I think it would be excellent to extend this functionality to the Generic LLM provider. Currently I'm using the Docker image v1.2.3

Specifically, I’d like to request support for sending multi-modal prompts, particularly images, to the chat through the Generic Open AI LLM Provider. This would enable more diverse and interactive conversations with the LLM.

Current State: The recent API improvement allows images to be sent to workspaces via API and also in chat when using e.g. Azure OpenAPI, but this functionality is not currently available through the Generic Open AI LLM Provider.

Expected Behavior: With this feature enhancement, users should be able to send images as part of their prompts to the LLM, and receive relevant responses.

Use Cases:

Sending images to the LLM for image-based conversations (e.g. image description, screen grabs/descriptions of screen)
Enabling more interactive and engaging conversations with the LLM
