We built a PlanetScale plugin for ChatGPT

In plain words

This plugin connects ChatGPT to PlanetScale, a MySQL-compatible database platform. It allows users to query and manage databases directly through ChatGPT's interface without leaving the conversation. The tool is designed for developers and technical users who want to interact with their PlanetScale databases conversationally. It streamlines database operations by integrating them into the ChatGPT workflow.

This past weekend, we were fortunate to attend the Cerebral Valley Open AI hackathon at Shack15. We were challenged with building a ChatGPT plugin in 24 hours using Open AI’s new plug-in architecture. We are PlanetScale users so we decided to build a plugin to talk to a PlanetScale database. The flow we wanted for the plugin was: 2. Have ChatGPT interpret the question and generate a SQL query. After pondering and experimentation, we found the plugin architecture extremely powerful. This post aims to speed-run through that initial thinking toward a working model of how Open AI and ChatGPT plugins work and how you can build for them. The plugin architecture uses a well-known JSON file to…from less.build

  ChatGDB is a tool designed to superpower your debugging experience with GDB, a debugger for compiled languages. Use it to accelerate your debugging workflow by leveraging the power of ChatGPT to assist you while using GDB! It allows you to explain in natural language what you want to do, and then automatically execute the relevant command. Optionally, you can ask ChatGPT to explain the command it just ran or even pass in any question for it to answer. Focus on what's important - figuring out that nasty bug instead of chasing down GDB commands at the tip of your tongue. See it here:…

  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…

  Hi HN, Today we’re launching GPT-4 answers on Phind.com, a developer-focused search engine that uses generative AI to browse the web and answer technical questions, complete with code examples and detailed explanations. Unlike vanilla GPT-4, Phind feeds in relevant websites and technical documentation, reducing the model’s hallucination and keeping it up-to-date. To use it, simply enable the “Expert” toggle before doing a search. GPT-4 is making a night-and-day difference in terms of answer quality. For a question like “How can I RLHF a LLaMa model”, Phind in Expert mode delivers a…
