Honestly I'm pretty sick of ChatGPT anymore. It completely ignores custom instructions, loses context insanely quickly, has bugs with working with canvas where it puts the code in the chat instead of updating canvas, the Project feature is half baked and is very terrible experience, GPTs are just really stupid and also half baked. I started using Le Chat (Mistral) again and, honestly, the conversations there are much more fun. Tons of issues with that one as well, but I am happier using it haha. Ended up using a desktop app that lets me control the system prompt against Mistral's API and couldn't be happier.

OpenAI has already built some of this but maybe it requires a paid account. https://mashable.com/article/chatgpt-chat-history-search-int... It also has projects (says is for Plus, Team, and Pro users). https://help.openai.com/en/articles/10169521-using-projects-...

They used to have search (that wasn't really working - when it was present it failed to find even direct title matches), then they removed it couple weeks ago: https://www.reddit.com/r/ChatGPT/comments/1hcmygz/chatgpt_re...

Since then, for whatever reason, it's not available for my account (I'm on a Plus plan).

I’ve been wondering if OpenAI’s updates ruin other applications or utility? Kinda makes me skeptical of global models. Obviously OpenAI is optimizing and changing how they train their models. Makes sense to me you’d lose some of the quirks. I think this is actually the promise of open weight models. Personally, I’ve never used ChatGPT, Claude, whatever. I’ve found a decent amount of utility in just the open weight models.

I am right there with you on the open weight models. Only reason I started back on ChatGPT is because I'm rebuilding my servers and had to take out my 3090Ti. That thing is huge and I needed the room for hard drives until my 3.5" to 5.25" adapters come in.

Personally I'll wait for OpenAI to add this feature directly. I'm sure they're working on it. I don't want this solution delivered in the form of an extension (one practical reason is I use ChatGPT from mobile a lot of the time). I have 0 extensions installed in general.

Why do you subject yourself to web ads?

With brave mobile you have no ads, and no extension needed.

How else do you propose that the web sites you visit should fund their work and infrastructure?

Another feature that I find shockingly absent from most web-based chat providers is autocomplete, I.e copilot-like suggestions to complete what your typing. Typing long text into chat boxes quickly becomes tedious and having context-based autocomplete helps a lot — you can experience this within AI-IDEs like zed or cursor etc — in fact I often resort to using those just for this feature.

Just a reminder that LibreChat exists. It's FOSS, and lets you bring your own APIs key for all the LLM providers. The UI is excellent.

You can run it locally, or as I do on a $5/month Linode server. I don't want to pay ~20/month for each LLM provider, so I put $5 to $10 on my Anthropic and OpenAI API accounts every couple months, and that lasts me plenty long.

You get to save all your chats, change models mid-chat, view code artifacts, create presets, and much more.

If you don't know how to set up something like this, ask ChatGPT or Claude. They will walk you through it, and you will learn a useful skill. It's shockingly easy.
