    It appears that we are entering a new age… I guess soon we will be wearing glasses that can listen us and analyze statements/commands and make reservations, create alarms, send messages etc.

    With the GPT-4 Turbo (more powerful, faster, and most importantly cheaper), assistants (plug-ins), and a GPT store (specialized gpt versions created by users)…

    I wonder if there’s a potential to leverage NodeBB forum data to train GPT-4 Turbo in a way to create a chatbot, and when users write a question, this bot will give a concise information/answer to users and guiding them directly to relevant topic(s) in the forum by sharing the topic links?

    @crazycells Interesting concept, and certainly one that warrants further exploration as it could extend the reach of any forum well beyond what search engines can offer.

    I know that someone in the NodeBB community has already begun something along these lines in the form of ChatGPT moderation, which looks good but isn’t free in the sense that it needs “credits” to work

    https://community.nodebb.org/topic/17198/chatgpt-moderation?_=1699722431266

    From recollection, a pro subscription to GPT4 costs $20/month - and is has caps, such as 50 queries max per 4 hours, and many are questioning if this fee make the product worth it or not - it’s not something I’d specifically use in terms of a subscription per month - at least, not enough to warrant it’s cost.

    For the training part, I guess that ChatGPT would have to crawl your website rather like an indexing service does. However, we already have search capabilities in NodeBB and ChatGPT would effectively be another - the question here is do we really need it?

    Maybe I am mistaken, but I thought this is the price for web-based ChatGPT subscription, where you use it for your own questions, right?

    I thought API price is based on the usage? input tokens & output tokens…

    Yes, that’s right. Sorry - I was trying to draw some parallel in terms of the cost.

    Yes, it is, although on larger forums it could still land up being quite expensive depending on how often it is used.

    @phenomlab yes, you are right. But my assumption is that larger forums would have money to fund this, although it does not necessarily have to be the case. This is the rate for GPT-Turbo…

    Screen Shot 2023-11-11 at 18.32.43.png

    $1 for 100.000 input tokens
    $3 for 100.000 output tokens

    @crazycells your figures don’t seem to match the video?

    Don’t you mean $1 for 1,000? 🤔

    @phenomlab oh no, that is 1 cent on the video, but you are right, symbols are similar… I just converted it to $1 , since it is more intuitive in daily life…

    I’ve noticed that I’m the only one subscribed to the push notifications on this site. If you were using NTFY previously, and have noticed that you’ve not had any alerts for a while, it’s because this feature has been disabled. You’ll now need to use the push notification to replace NTFY as mentioned in the first post.

    @crazycells yes, I think it certainly has a place - but to enrich knowledge, rather than simply substitute it. I remember years ago when I did my exams. You weren’t allowed a calculator or anything like that and had to show your workings on a separate piece of paper which you were given additional marks for. These days, they use iPads etc in schools, so the art of writing a letter or needing to perform mathematical calculations in your head is gone. One of my very first jobs was in a newsagent who had a really old till (yes, not a Point-Of-Service like you have today) - all this till did was add up the individual figures, but didn’t tell you how much change to give - you had to do that part. Sounds simple enough, but with technology doing everything for us these days, our basic skills (think the “Three R’s”, and see example below) have taken a back seat and I think that’s made us lazy. https://www.merriam-webster.com/dictionary/three R's Again, my point here being to enrich - not completely replace basic skills we learn as we age.

    @dave1904 I’d start by adding a console.log function to hookData so you can see what is being returned return hookData; console.log(hookData):
