This is really simple to build yourself. Just use SentenanceTransformers in python, pineconeDB, and whatever screen scrape library you line. Chunk your site content before storing in pineconeDB and then search and whatever you get back use as context for the GPT Chat API.

This comment has the same energy as the infamous Dropbox comment on HN. Do you think no-coders and others in general are really going to build out their own implementation?

That said, companies like Intercom, Zendesk and other customer service companies are already starting to do this.

These AI chatbots on websites are beyond useless, and LLMs won't make them any better. When you go to the chat-based support interface on a website, it's usually because you've read the entire contents of the website and didn't find what you are looking for. Now you will just get a hallucinated answer, with no indication as to whether it's a human or AI you're talking to.

Cool idea! Maybe I misunderstand how it would work, but let’s say you have a long post (or multiple posts) on a topic. Won’t it be difficult to get a good answer that takes all content into account if only a small chunk can be used for the GPT prompt?

Yes, it's a multi step process. The first step is to figure out which chunks of text is relevant to the question. Then we can generate answer based on that.

Because chatbots were so far utterly useless.

It doesn't seem crazy to think that given a good enough chatbot, users might prefer to ask their question directly rather than have to find the specific piece of information they need from a dense docs website.

Sorry but I am not going to pay for this before trying it out on my content. Surely there can be a test function within the website which allows me to see what a user would experience?

Same boat. Not paying unless you can show me a demo of it working with my content. Do even know if their scrapper can properly scrape our site.

How can I train a model on all of my facebook, twitter, reddit, hackernews and other posts available on the Internet, to help me act as me on my "off" days? ;)

(I have a 21 month old. You don't know "off" days until you've had a kid.)
