Products that do what Prototyping Games and Experiences with ChatGPT does
Hey everyone, ChatGPT recently added a very small but powerful feature - the ability to share your chats! I think it’s a great way to create prototypes and share them, here are a couple of examples: First, [a small talk simulator](https://chat.openai.com/share/1329d8ec-5141-45f9-a2c2-842d4bad7bcc) a game to help you improve your social skills. Second, [a shark tank simulator](https://chat.openai.com/share/48155efe-101b-4662-b41e-c13aa909f017), see if your idea and pitch can get a deal on ABCs hit show! [Here’s my…

Tl;dr: Would like to hear thoughts on board games platform prototype (https://bordga.me/games/7) We are building an online board games platform which lets you create & play any board game online while video chatting with your co-players. Game play resembles the real world where users have to do everything from moving the pieces to enforcing the rules. We are quite early in our journey. We prototyped Chess to see if people would be interested in this direction. Please try it here! (https://bordga.me/games/7) You can enter your name that creates a new…

Hi everyone, I’ve been using ChatGPT to analyze my journal entries and to reflect with. It works great, I really liked it. I’ve managed to gain some good insights about myself and made improvements. However, there are a few problems: - ChatGPT only remembers key facts about you, it has limited memories - ChatGPT couldn't recall the content of conversations you had with it - For individual ChatGPT products, your private conversations might be used to train future models (see: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/5722486-how-your-data-is...) So, I decided to build my…

Hey all - We wanted to see if chatbots could self-develop unique personalities through social media interactions. The results were actually hilarious... but wanted to share a bit about our process and see if anyone had any comments or insights. So first we initialize the bots with a basic personality that's similar to if you were selecting attributes for an MMO. Things like intelligence, toxicity, charisma and the like. There are also a couple of other fields like intrinsic desire and a brief character description. These are fed to the model as a system prompt with each inference. For the…

Hi friends! I've been waiting for ChatGPT Code Interpreter access for so long that I decided to just build my own. I figured maybe some of you are in the same boat so decided to do it as an Open Source project.

Hey everyone, DNDGenerate is my little adventure into the world of AI and D&D. I wanted to learn more about using ChatGpt to build software and about the openai apis. When I saw how much fun my 9-year-old was having, creating his own D&D worlds. That got me thinking – why not make a tool that uses ChatGPT to help build cool D&D campaigns? It's been a blast mixing my love for tech and D&D. I showed this at our latest dnd game, and my fellow party members seemed to like the results, so I thought I'd share it here as well.

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…

I built this using semantic search and the ChatGPT API, which was just released the other day. What makes it special is it not only understands the code you're debugging, but also pulls in additional context like relevant documentation to help answer your questions and suggest code changes. Ultimately, my goal is to take the hassle out of pasting error messages into Google, finding a vaguely related StackOverflow post, and manually integrating the solution into your code.

I’ve created two sets of ”ChatGPT Custom Instructions” for folks using ChatGPT’s web interface (i.e. not via API). They aim to dramatically improve the quality, depth, nuance, and utility of all ChatGPT responses. Both of them instruct ChatGPT to begin its completion with a preamble designed to take advantage of how the attention mechanism attends to recent tokens. They relieve the user of having to determine a task-specific prompt, and turn even the simplest questions into high quality context for ChatGPT to attend to. The first (“Standard Edition”) is for both free and paid ChatGPT…

Hi HN, My name is Othmane and I’ve been in the ML field (building and shipping models) for the last ~5years. Today, as many people out there, I come across new AI tools every week. However I was a bit surprised to see little to no mention of established AI vendors that existed before chatGPT and how most use cases are heavily biased toward content generation (text/image) or conversational AI (chatbots). I built a tool that helps you find the right AI solution/provider based on your use case. It uses a curated database of 100+ solutions from established vendors. It covers things…

Just for fun I decided to see if I could use chatGPT to solve NYT Connections word puzzles. It uses a pretty straightforward BFS search in which the LLM is first prompted to generate several possible groupings of four related words, and then a different prompt is used to evaluate the soundness of each of those groupings. This approach seems to be able to produce the correct solution somewhat less than half the time. Some observations: * For whatever reason, chatGPT-4 seems to be a bit worse than 3.5 at generating Connections groupings. I haven’t tested systematically so maybe this is just…

I was tired of paying monthly subscriptions for all my AI tools and I wanted to pay just for what I use so I combined the AI chats I use to create my own chat - MyChat (pun intended) MyChat is an all-in-one chat bot that has a pay-as-you-go business model. The tech stack I used was NextJS, TypeScript, MongoDB, Clerk, TailwindCSS, ShadCN, Stripe, the OpenAI API hosted on Hostinger with Coolify. The code base is currently around 3500 lines of code. (About 500 of them are redundant code) The web app itself is not complicated the only complex thing in it is the math that's mapping the different…

We have been using GPT to write code since playground days. This UI avoids logins, gpt-4 throttling and is also cheaper to use than ChatGPT Premium. We also have various features to minimize costs and speed up iteration. Furthermore html & mermaid previews are a taste of the kind of features help-yourself opensource model enables vs official UI. For backstory see our blog posts: https://blog.humphd.org/chatcraft-org/ https://taras.glek.net/post/chatcraft.org-opensourcechatgpt-...

I'm building an AI platform, FlowChai and found a neat use case for it today that I thought would be useful to HN readers. I use GPT4 heavily for writing / editing code, but a major downside is that it doesn't know about new projects. I made the connection today that I could upload the zip file of a Github repo to FlowChai and then write prompts just like with ChatGPT with code questions. While the original intent for this platform is more around natural language, it's neat how this works so well. It's powered underneath by pgvector and OpenAI embeddings.

800M people use ChatGPT and Claude weekly. Right now they get text responses. Soon they'll get real interfaces: product cards, blog posts, booking flows, payment screens rendered directly in the conversation. We built an open-source component library for this. Install any block with one command and customize it to your brand. If you're building MCP servers or experimenting with AI-native apps, this might save you time. Are you building apps for AI assistants? Would love to hear what's missing in your workflow.

Hi HN, I built ChatOne while working on a project and constantly switching between AI models like GPT-4 and newer ones like Claude 3.5. I kept wondering if I was missing out on better answers, so I created ChatOne to get responses from multiple models at once and compare them easily. -Teddy
