Hi guys, For my startup at www.mithrin.ai which is about create AI Chatbot Agents for websites, I wanted to create some free tools to attract traffic to the site and decided to create specialized chatbots powered by LLMs, similar to OpenAI's Custom GPTs. I realized that by using gpt-4o-mini, I could create quite powerful alternatives to GPTs that are free to the public for a very small cost (given how cheap the model api cost is). I've employed some throttling to prevent abuse and to avoid being charged too much. Then I integrated this with my main service and allowed users to use the…

Hi everyone, We built a quick experiment this weekend that allows you to use GPT4 to quickly generate shareable web apps that use the ChatGPT API. Here’s a video of me building an app similar to https://whatdoesthiscodedo.com/: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VpvGd21V0u0 "What does this code do?" went to #1 on Hacker News a couple of months ago. The app takes a piece of code, asks GPT4 to analyze it and returns a simple, English description of the code. An app like this is super simple to build with MetaGPT. What other kinds of things can you build with this? *…

Hi HN! I wanted to share my freshly finished open-source project. It is similar to ChatGPT Code Interpreter, but the interpreter runs locally and it can use open-source models like Llama 2. It allows you to work with sensitive data without uploading it to the cloud. Either you use a local LLM (like Llama 2), or an API (like GPT-4). For the latter case, there is an approval mechanism in the UI, which separates your local data from the remote services. I would be very interested in your valuable feedback!
