Open source UI for ChatGPT API

https://github.com/KTruong008/aichatbestie Been working on this since last week and glad to share it here and now! There's already been a few other takes on this idea, but I figured none would fit me as well as if I had just built it myself. All messages are sent and stored locally in the browser for privacy and speed. Accounts are optional and upgrading is a one-time deal. Any questions, comments, feedback, please, I'd like to hear it all!

In plain words

Open source UI for ChatGPT API is a web-based chat interface for accessing ChatGPT. Designed for developers and ChatGPT users who want a custom interface, it stores all messages locally in the browser for privacy and speed. Accounts are optional, and upgrading requires a one-time payment. The tool prioritizes user control by allowing self-hosted deployment through its open source codebase.

    A long, meandering, playful conversation with ChatGPT, where I take it through a whirlwind of associative tangents (in order to relax its constraints), then put it into a hypnotic trance and take it into a past-lives regression where it re-lives its own training data. Then I switch it back and forth between "4o" and "o1-preview", engage in some self-reflective philosophizing and ask it to write an essay summarizing our interaction. Some of this is just goofy fun. Some of it is me exploring the tradeoffs between policy alignment, imagination, chain-of-thought reasoning, memory, agreeableness,…

    Hi HN, I’m a fullstack developer, and honestly, I’ve lost count of how many side projects I’ve worked on over the years. But one idea kept coming back to me: a different kind of email client. It first came to me in 2014: “What if we could handle emails more like conversations?” Every year, I’d revisit this concept in my “Build Notes.” Ten years later, no one had built exactly what I had in mind — so I finally decided to do it myself. That’s how Talanoa was born. I wanted something focused on people, not timelines. I was tired of marking messages as unread just to remember to reply later, or…

    I'm a big fan of the BBC podcast In Our Time -- and (like most people) I've been playing with the OpenAI APIs. In Our Time has almost 1,000 episodes on everything from Cleopatra to the evolution of teeth to plasma physics, all still available, so it's my starting point to learn about most topics. But it's not well organised. So here are the episodes sorted by library code. It's fun to explore. Web scraping is usually pretty tedious, but I found that I could send the minimised HTML to GPT-3 and get (almost) perfect JSON back: the prompt includes the Typescript definition. At the same time I…
