A New Kind of Chat Room
I’ve developed an application that reimagines chat rooms by integrating them with a world map. Each user can claim a rectangular piece of land on the map, referred to as a "banner." Users within close proximity are grouped into a chat room by the app. The banner’s size can expand or shrink based on the density of users in the area and the number of coins in the user’s account. Key Features: Real-World Interaction Model: Users are pseudo-anonymous, akin to real-world interactions.

What it does
In the maker’s words, at launch
I’ve developed an application that reimagines chat rooms by integrating them with a world map. Each user can claim a rectangular piece of land on the map, referred to as a "banner." Users within close proximity are grouped into a chat room by the app. The banner’s size can expand or shrink based on the density of users in the area and the number of coins in the user’s account. Key Features: Real-World Interaction Model: Users are pseudo-anonymous, akin to real-world interactions. Coin balance determines user size and visibility ("stature"), while endorsements and other activities form a unique endorsement chart, serving as a digital representation. This allows for interaction without revealing one’s entire social or professional network. Community Clusters: Users can form open communities based on real-world locations. New users can discover and join these clusters via heatmaps, without needing specific URLs or hashtags. Initial Coins: New users start with 1000 coins. These coins can be used to endorse other users' content, earning stakes in the endorsed banner. When others endorse that banner, the original endorser gains more coins. This endorsement economy is experimental, and could eventually involve crypto tokens. Useful Points: Banner Interactions: Clicking on a banner opens it fully. A button with a chart icon on the top right flips the banner to display the activity chart. Compatibility: The application currently works best on Google Chrome. Heatmap View: Zooming out on the map reveals a heatmap of banners. Side Panel Tabs: First Tab: Displays a feed of content from the visible map area. Second Tab: Contains the cluster chat. Current User Base: At the moment, only my friends and family are using the application, so banners are predominantly found in the Chicago area. For more details, refer to the white paper provided. I’m excited to share this application and look forward to your feedback!

I was inspired by the way ChatGPT writes bullet lists, then invites you to "delve" deeper. This is an interface that reifies that rabbit-holing process into a tiling layout. The model is instructed to output hyperlink-prompts when it mentions something you might want to delve into. Lots of features to add (sessions, sharing, navigation, highlight-to-delve, images, ...). Would love to hear other usecases and ideas!
- IBI built a non-linear UI for ChatGPT2024 · grafychat.com · ▲459
Hi HN, I built this out of frustration of the evergrowing list of AI models and features to try and to fit my workflow. The visual approach clicks for me so i went with it, it provides more freedom and control of the outcome, because predictable results and increased productivity is what I’m after when using conversational AI. The app is packed with features, my most used are prompt library, voice input and text search, narration is useful too. The app is local-first and works right in the browser, no sign up needed and it's absolutely free to try. BYOAK – bring your own API Keys. Let me…

I build ChatGPT-2D with the idea to enable people to branch AI conversations interactively, pose contextual questions based on AI response and visualize your entire dialogue on a 2 dimensional map interface. What do you think?
