https://www.rivadata.com/ I have been hacking together a poor-man's crunchbase that's fueled by GPT. React / Python / Supabase. The most interesting piece thus far has been the success of the self-correcting loops through GPT. At each turn basically feeding the results back to another 3.5 prompt that is only about reviewing quality. I found that with these loops you can get solid results without having to use the mor…

This is awesome. I've been looking for this exactly in the last few days.

I helped "writing" a cookbook from my grandmother's recipes. For her 100th birthday, my dad rescued more than 250+ pages of recipes that my Grandma had collected over the years. Some were written in typing machine, others written by hand by her. So, my dad scanned (pictured) all the typed recipes, and "dictated" all the handwritten. For the dictated recipes, I told him to dictate just "flat" the words and numbers. So…

Would you mind sharing the cookbook or excerpts from it? I'd love to see it.

I've done a handful of fun hardware + LLM projects... * I built a real life Pokedex to recognize Pokemon [video] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wVcerPofkE0 * I used ChatGPT to filter nice comments and print them in my office [video] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AonMzGUN9gQ * I built a general purpose chat assistant into an old intercom [video] https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=-zDdpeTdv84 Again, nothing terribly us…

Oh hey I just watched that pokedex video. It was so impressive! Deserves way more attention

Indeed! Such a beautiful project!

I am stunned at how few people are sharing projects using LLMs for real estate.

I own the domain homestocompare and I am working on a project that will use AI to help compare homes. Unfortunately I don't have a working demo yet but please reach out to me if you would be interested in finding out more.

Just a personal project - I got a deep interest in the CIA's Stargate program and the declassified documents in the "reading room." I wrote a script to scrape all of the readable or OCRd text from the documents, and fed them into GPT-3.5 to get a summary. It definitely makes reading through the documents easier. I have all of the docs with summaries on a small webserver here: https://ayylmao.info Simple Flask site wi…

Feel like this needs way more discoverabilty. Otherwise what’s the point? My ideas:

Better URL Some CSS More ways into the content Most importantly — put the whole thing on GitHub (most important are the summaries and index). The SQLite file will be too big but you could easily have 10, 100k small summary files.

With a proper readme and these changes (and more of course) you might create a resource that far outlives you and helps researchers long into the future.

That's great!

We built https://gptforwork.com a set of add-ons for Excel, Word, Google Sheets and Docs that brings custom GPT functions in Excel and Sheets, to prompt directly from cells, a chat in Word to interact with documents, and a simple prompt box in Docs We offer OpenAI and Azure providers (as well as Anthropic on Sheets)

5M installations, wow!

I built an Interactive Resume AI chatbot where anyone can ask questions about my experience and skills: https://www.jon-olson.com/resume_ai/ The backend is a Python FastAPI that uses ChromaDB to store my resume and Q&A pairs, OpenAI, and Airtable to log requests and responses. The UI is Sveltekit. I'm currently building a different tool and will apply some learnings to my Interactive Resume AI. Instead of Airtable, I…

Resume AI is cool, really nicely done, mate !

My "stack" is just Apple Shortcuts making HTTP POST API calls to OpenAI, which does stuff in MacOS via BetterTouchTool. I trigger each by hotkey or typing a few letter into Spotlight (with Alfred). One transcribes and summarizes whatever youtube URL is highlighted. One does grammar and style correction of whatever is highlighted (and replaces it). One simply replaces the Dictate key with OpenAI Whisper but otherwise…

Could you please share the prompt for the grammar and style correction shortcut? I've just started using it for the same purpose, but I haven't been able to find a prompt that yields consistent results. Sometimes, ChatGPT completely changes the style of my text.
