I'm also building a personal ChatGPT client for a similar reason as the OP, which is to address the issues of buggy and slow UX, among others. As you mentioned, many people are currently working on projects using ChatGPT API. In fact, in the past 24 hours, around 12 new apps that have been showcased on OpenAI Discord channel alone. Some of these apps are open source, which makes them a great source of learning and inspiration for me.

Do you then reference those open source apps?

Just made my repo public https://github.com/Loeffeldude/my-chat-gpt

I whipped up a quick cli script myself haha

All of these UIs when there's a perfectly good command line right there! The CLI is always the best way for text.

> ai what is that song with moms spaghetti

"Lose Yourself" by Eminem

Sorted.

Nice, I'm curious though, does the API also remember context from earlier conversations or can it be made to?

I don't believe so, but that's not something I wanted/needed for this one. It's just for one off things for my use case.

Something like

> ai give me an index match formula to link between sheets New and Current

yep CLI is the way

different flavours: 'fix' acts as `thefuck` replacement in 30 lines of python

CLI is a UI, too.

I know mate, haha.

I imagine someone can do much better than I did in a few minutes, but yeah use the UI that already exists instead of sprinkling electron on something text based.

In future editions of CLI AI I'd imagine a --context flag might be useful, probably a --model to override that bit too, if anyone fancies doing this properly? :)

Haha I felt better after reading this thread. I mean it was a fun weekend project!
