So, everyone's favorite is the one they built themselves?

Maybe that's the power of ChatGPT. That it is so adaptable to very individual use cases that people can apply to it to precisely their context.

  Based on how easy it can be to write ChatGPT Plugins when GPT can write them for you, i could see this becoming more and more true.

I think that's the big success of GPT. Imagine if you asked "what's your favorite type of a Google query", nearly everyone would have a different answer. In particular a substantial percentage of Google queries are only ever asked once.

Yeah that was a red flag takeaway for me from this thread. How much of the AI hype is someone trying to sell me on something they made or will profit from?

  Take a look at your sibling responses. In contrast you’ll have a working definition of cynicism.

Yup! At least for me, I wanted ChatGPT to be native and keyboard-first :)

  Got an example of it? I too want a nicer UX around my ChatGPT Plus sub (ie not API based). Frankly a cli version that could pipe into my code editor (Helix) would be amazing.

Practically. Or at least, will be. I don't have all my chips on it, but I've been working on jupyter and langchain tooling. This feels remarkably like when we were arguing over scrypt vs bcrypt and used to benchmark our GPUs by seeing how many dozens of bit/litecoins we could generate in a night. In four or five years, we won't recognize the world we're living in today.

Seriously.. This just turned into a "Show HN" comment section. Half of the ones I've seen are like "Still in early development"

Yes, because GPT-powered services are usually just lousy abstractions over the OpenAI API, and implementing them for your own custom niche will work much better. For example, I tried Otter's meeting summarizer, and it was incomprehensible, but when I implemented it myself with GPT-4 I got stellar results.

I saw someone's workflow where they taught it to make its own shorthand language. Interestingly everyone ended up with their own shorthand, and yet the GPT-4 was able to understand all the individualized stuff just fine.
