Yes, technically it will index everything if it's just a single page. Some people have already started abusing it like that. I need to put in place some restrictions for that.

Assume you have multiple products. You can't give the content of both these websites to a single chatbot, right? For example, if someone asks chatbot about "What's the pricing", should it give the pricing of first product or second product?

In cases like this, it makes sense to create multiple chatbots (one chatbot for each website) and keep the content separate.

Ah, OK. That makes sense as far as the chatbot count. That's quite unclear to me from the site, and the chatbot isn't any more helpful.

> What is the difference between pricing plans in terms of chatbots? What does that mean, exactly?

> SiteGPT offers different pricing plans based on the number of chatbots and web pages/documents that can be created. The Essential plan allows for the creation of one chatbot and up to 25 web pages/documents, while the Growth plan allows for the creation of two chatbots and up to 100 web pages/documents. The Pro plan is the most popular and allows for the creation of five chatbots and up to 500 web pages/documents. The Elite plan is the best value and allows for the creation of unlimited chatbots and up to 5000 web pages/documents. The pricing plans are designed to accommodate websites of all sizes and needs.

Congratulations, it "read the Powerpoint slide again." I had some college professors who did that. Ask for clarification, they'd read the slide again, as if I'd not understood the slide the first time.

Meh. Good luck.

Yeah, chatbot can only be as good as the content that is in the website. If the chatbot didn't answer it properly, that's because I did not have content on the website to answer this question.

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.

Disagree. I now defer to chatGPT instead of reading raw documentation. Even if it can hallucinate an answer it's still way faster and better for discoverability.

Not to go full "Dropbox in a weekend", but if you're technical enough to self-host, this is something you can build for yourself Everyone is going straight to embeddings, but it'd be easy enough to use old school NLP summarization from NLTK ( https://www.nltk.org/ ) Hook that up a web scraping library like https://scrapy.org/ and get a summary of each page. Then embed a site map in your system prompt and use langchai…

Is that (i.e. GPT) not still a service? What people want is something they can run on their own hardware without sending their queries to some third party service which is doing who knows what with them. This is already possible if you want to mess around with green code that isn't in system repositories yet and buy expensive hardware to make it fast, but you can imagine why some people don't have the time or money f…

I mean you don't need to use GPT, it's just if you wanted to build the product in OP (ChatGPT tuned for your site) you would.

Question answering can be tackled by smaller models that run on CPUs: https://huggingface.co/tasks/question-answering

And if it's strictly for personal use there's always the chat-tuned stuff being built on top of LLaMA like Alpaca

Intel and AMD just got their lunch eaten by Apple Silicon which did exactly that, so I'm sure they're working on it

I'll pay attention to these things when they are open source instead of a service.

You could combine this https://github.com/realrasengan/AIQA

with

this https://github.com/realrasengan/gpt4all-wrapper-js

And do it locally on your computer with just a little mod.
