If you're using a third-party UI for ChatGPT, it might as well be a browser extension [0] or a native app [1]. It really shines when you break it out of its website interface and start using it like a command palette/context menu.

Yeah I don't even understand the point of this SlickGPT.

  It's a userfriendly web client for the latest OpenAI chatCompletion API with additional features compared to the official chat.openai.com client (mainly: "Share chats" & better param customization), it's Open Source and can be run locally or self-hosted easily. It's built in one of the most popular frontend tech stacks of the last years. Not more and not less than that.

  Have you tried regularly using the ChatGPT interface from your phone? It’s obvious that the UI is written by people that don’t take UX seriously.

Agreed! I've found that staying in my workflow leads to fewer inadvertent context switches (like ChatGPT in-browser -> HN -> ... -> rabbit hole). MacGPT looks great. I created a similar plugin for my Windows keystroke launcher (think Alfred/Spotlight) for the same reason.

I'm beginning to think there's one too many of these kinds of apps, but if anyone is interested in a cross-platform (Mac, Linux, Windows) alternative, I've built a command-palette type interface [1] to GPT that supports code blocks/LaTeX too.

  There are. But as NVIDIA has proven, being the last tool of a type to be developed isn't necessarily a futile undertaking.

Couldn't agree more, that is exactly why we built Buddy - an open source chrome extension with a cool cmdk interface to OpenAI's API. Everything runs locally (besides the API calls).
