Right, but the syntax error is probably pointing to a particular line or file 👍

Makes it easier to debug once we know the line that has the error 💪

As far as I can tell, your code should be working

Plain Text

from llama_index import GPTSimpleVectorIndex, SimpleDirectoryReader

documents = SimpleDirectoryReader('./data').load_data()
index = GPTSimpleVectorIndex.from_documents(documents)

(You might have better luck installing from pypi rather than source pip install --upgrade llama_index)
