thinkinpublic.app

Some of my best ideas were getting lost inside long ChatGPT conversations. I built this tool to turn raw chats into clean, readable posts that can be shared publicly and indexed, without rewriting everything by hand. It’s meant for people who think a lot but don’t enjoy long-form writing, and want their ideas to compound instead of disappearing in chat logs. Happy to answer questions about how it works or why I built it.

What it does

Some of your best ideas live inside chats and rough notes—but never make it out into the world. Paste any conversation or note into thinkinpublic and instantly get a clean, structured blog post that’s ready to share and discover on Google.

Turn ChatGPT conversations and rough thinking into deliberately structured, discoverable blog posts that feel unmistakably yours.

Writing puts words on a page. Authoring gives those words a point of view, a deliberate structure, and a reason to exist. Paste a ChatGPT conversation and turn the thinking inside it into a blog post that feels unmistakably yours. Mars captures our frontier dreams, but the practical path to spacefaring civilization begins with repairable habitats. Essays on ideas, culture, technology, and society, written clearly and structured for real readers. Mars inspires us, but the harder, nobler work is here: restoring ecosystems, redesigning cities, and building institutions that last. The difference is intention. An author decides what the piece is really saying, shapes how a reader experiences it,…from thinkinpublic.app

    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,…

  • ChatGPT UI for rabbit holes2024 · delve.a9.io · ▲766

    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!

    I 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 built a tool to save and version-control my thinking from ChatGPTJan 2026 · kwegg.com · ▲7

    I was frustrated with how I share ideas online. LinkedIn/X forces you to compress everything into hot takes. Research papers require months of work. And posting on social media increasingly feels like trying on outfits in ChatGPT until you find one that "fits" – performance over genuine thinking. I wanted something in between. A place where: - Half-formed ideas are okay - Thinking evolves over time (with revision history) - Garbage gets pruned naturally through format itself and status tracking (exploring → resolved → abandoned) So I built Kwegg. How it works: 1. You're in ChatGPT or…

    Hey HN! I wanted to share something I built over the last few weeks: isometric.nyc is a massive isometric pixel art map of NYC, built with nano banana and coding agents. I didn't write a single line of code. Of course no-code doesn't mean no-engineering. This project took a lot more manual labor than I'd hoped! I wrote a deep dive on the workflow and some thoughts about the future of AI coding and creativity: http://cannoneyed.com/projects/isometric-nyc
