First version of My Expert GPT

Posted April 5, 2023 by Alin Osan ‐ 1 min read

Got tired of copy-paste of expert role definitions. Ready to scratch the itch.

Started to think seriously about making it easy to use expert roles once GPT-4 was out. Using expert roles with GPT-4 got remarkably better than GPT-3.5. Got sooo many roles, need a solution to replace copy-paste. After a week of stewing ideas, landed on a solution to try the next opportunity I had.

I was hoping I’ll get OpenAI plugin access as easy as I got the ChatGPT and API access. Time to think of another plan. Some weekend work is long overdue.

So, spent a few hours researching MV3 Google extensions and ways to use JavaScript. I resisted the urge to overthink and just played with vanilla JavaScript and Chrome APIs. Not too bad, got a first functional version in a few hours, but with no serious exemption handling.

My wife tested the first version, need to build some affordance in the UI. Still trying to keep it simple. It needs to do one job, and do it well: make copy-paste seldom and interesting.
