> Regarding the AI, it’s literally just a wrapper of OpenAI completions API (turbo-3.5 model) and a chat interface, so it should give the same answers as the free version of ChatGPT. Have you tested this? My impression after a couple of tests is that its answers are worse than free ChatGPT (no idea why). Maybe I just got unlucky with the RNG, though.

Not really had much time to test the results. Yeah it should be possible to tweak the settings (mostly temperature and prompt) to get better results. Also I think I’m not sending the full history right now, to avoid consuming too many tokens

You can ask it to summarize the dialog, thus compressing the dialog history into a few sentences. That will give you some basic dialog context.

Creator here, just woken up and it’s funny to see PizzaGPT on the front page of HN. I had the idea yesterday, when reading about ChatGPT being blocked in Italy. I’m an Italian living abroad so I still have access to it, but my parents and friends living there don’t. I believe AI is a revolutionary tool that should be available to anyone, the same way internet has been. The website was coded yesterday in a couple of h…

Does it address the issue that led to forbidding ChatGPT in the first place ?

no.

The free user interface does something behind the scenes to provide context to chatgpt but I haven't figured out what it is

Can you please tell me your name? You need to pass the whole chat history in your request: [{:role "assistant", :content "Ciao, sono PizzaGPT come posso aiutarti?"} {:role "user", :content "My name is George"} {:role "assistant", :cont…

I think it is doing something a bit sophisticated in choosing what to pass in the context when the conversation grows beyond the token limit

interesting, tho, is it a good idea use the .it domain for technology potentially blocked in Italy?

Italy cares enough to ban ChatGPT, which is legally easy to do.

Going through the hassle to revoke an .it domain is a little bit... how to say... small potatoes

Maybe ?

I'd be interested to hear why. From using it and testing plugins, GPT-4 is a significant advantage right now, with no additional developments.

Significant advantage to do what? Can you blindly trust it to do anything without you being there to correct it? Even when it's not giving you bullshit, it gives the most uncreative, boilerplate output that any human will quickly learn to instantly dismiss. Like the myriad of HN accounts that tried to use it to post comments and that the rest of us instantly recognised as bots. I'm not saying it's useless, it certain…

I'm basing these answers off what I've seen GPT-4 do. It's not better than human experts at anything. It is better than mid-level humans, and given access to corporate databases in can replace them by doing nothing more than supplementing experts, like dictation software vs secretaries. For example: I've seen a plugin that gives GPT access to Github repos, with which it can learn corporate styles and architectures and write new code to match. You do have to double check it, but since it can explain its own work and edit accordingly this is a fast process. This can be applied to technical documentation and knowledge bases too, and that alone is enough to displace quite a few jobs.

Self-driving cars are a good analogy, because if they only worked, they would be revolutionary (blockchains have no uses I've ever seen). And GPT-4, from what I've seen, works.

Yes, I know, but it was a deliberate choice not to send the entire history, to keep the token consumption and costs low

Great work! I am also Italian and just released a similar app that anyone can run on their own machine, you can also change the initial prompt, model, temperature etc. It's open source so feel free to explore and adapt the code to your own needs! You will need to use your own API key though:
