1xdevloper··on Maybe we can have a specific tab for submitted contents about GPT and AI
Someone posted a user script [0] to remove "GPT" from your HN feed a while ago.

1xdevloper··on Launch HN: Play.ht (YC W23) – Generate and clone voices from 20 seconds of audio
It's mentioned in the second demo video that they have a strict process to prevent cases like yours. I think Descript started asking for identity verification after its service was abused. This one probably has a similar process too.
1xdevloper··on Launch HN: Play.ht (YC W23) – Generate and clone voices from 20 seconds of audio
This is the only platform that seems to be offering unlimited voice generation for a fixed monthly price. Does this have a real-time streaming option?
1xdevloper··on Show HN: SlickGPT
If you're using a third-party UI for ChatGPT, it might as well be a browser extension [0] or a native app [1]. It really shines when you break it out of its website interface and start using it like a command palette/context menu.

1xdevloper··on Secret ChatGPT plugins can be revealed by removing a parameter from an API call
> It is possible to use these unreleased plugins by setting up match-and-replace rules through an HTTP proxy. There are only client-side checks to validate that you have permission to use the plugins and they can be bypassed.

I wonder if this is intentional. A lot of browser extensions including mine [0] take advantage of their "loose" endpoints to enhance the functionality of ChatGPT. I feel that this has definitely helped them.

1xdevloper··on Show HN: SublimeGPT – ChatGPT powered context menu for the web
Hey HN, here is the chrome extension that that I've been working on for the past couple of months.

It lets you:

- open chat inside any tab

- create prompt shortcuts

- run prompt shortcuts on selected text inside any web page

It uses your existing ChatGPT session to process the requests. I'm also working on a feature that lets you use your own API key.

Probably because they're using a polyfill[0][1] to handle the event stream.

The website also calls the moderation API from the client side with the response returned from its conversation API. So if you simply block the request to the moderation endpoint in dev tools, do they still have additional built-in monitoring?

Clicking it won't do anything. It's a POST request endpoint so you also have to provide the auth token and input.

I think that's what Langchain is trying to do. You can use Zapier's natural language actions with Langchain to connect with thousands of services.
1xdevloper··on Show HN: Chatblade – A CLI Swiss Army Knife for ChatGPT
I'm building something similar[1] but for the web. Imagine creating your own command palette/context menu for any web page. ChatGPT really opened up a lot of mind blowing possibilities and the speed of innovation in this space makes me both excited and anxious.

Now if the Chrome store stops taking 3-4 days to approve an update, that'd be great!

1xdevloper··on Ask HN: Is anyone use Cloud based SQL databases anymore?
My extension? It doesn't do any parsing, just stores whatever content is saved securely in the db. But you shouldn't ever save any sensitive data like this though.
1xdevloper··on Ask HN: Is anyone use Cloud based SQL databases anymore?
After evaluating several SQL and NoSQL services I ended up using Planetscale for my chrome extension Autotype[1]. I have a single db with tables to store user accounts, rich text shortcuts, role based access controls etc. I use Cloudflare workers and Planetscale's serverless library to interact with the db. The pricing is reasonable and the developer experience is great for an indie hacker like me.

1xdevloper··on Show HN: I made a self-hosted ChatGPT UI
Hehe, I'll put it on github when it reaches 1.0.
1xdevloper··on Show HN: I made a self-hosted ChatGPT UI
And when you want to create/edit/delete/import custom prompts? AI is a commodity now and a great UX drives adoption.

ChatGPT API can be a lot more useful when you use it in context. Like selecting a chunk of text on any web page, right-click, and select summarize/translate/ELI5. Or executing your own custom prompt.

I'm building a chrome extension called SublimeGPT[1] to do exactly that. Right now, you can log in to your existing ChatGPT account, go to any page, and open a chat overlay. Next version will have the context options.

1xdevloper··on AI for developers and Google Workspace
I actually liked Edge and was happy to move away from Chrome. Then they started injecting their content into web pages. And then some shopping feature. I hate seeing the "You can now add extensions from the Chrome..." banner when I'm logged in the Chrome web store. It won't go away even after I closed it multiple times.

I started using Brave.

1xdevloper··on Show HN: SublimeGPT – Use ChatGPT inside any tab without an API key
I love firefox so I'll definitely port it in 2-3 weeks. For Edge and Brave, you can install it directly from the Chrome store.

I'm still collecting all the good ideas to make this highly useful as I don't want to make it just another frontend for ChatGPT. Next version will also let you bring your own API key if you don't want to login to ChatGPT website.

1xdevloper··on Show HN: SublimeGPT – Use ChatGPT inside any tab without an API key
I created SublimeGPT, a chrome extension that opens a ChatGPT session right inside any tab you're on when activated. No API key needed as it uses your existing ChatGPT account.

I'm working on some features that will let you create and use your own prompt shortcuts, and also apply them on any selected text. Let me know how I can make it even better.

I'm working on Autotype [1], a text expansion tool with UX similar to VSCode's command palette.

1xdevloper··on Show HN: XFrame – Create your own multisearch page
Hi HN, I made this after getting inspired by Swurl which was posted recently on Show HN. Since I visit almost the same set of websites daily for news, entertainment, and search, I figured something like this might be helpful.

XFrame is a website (https://xframe.app) and Chrome extension combo. It lets you:

- embed your favorite websites on the home page

- do multisearch in a single page

Privacy:

- I don't collect anything. It runs on local storage.

- The extension simply removes the response headers that prevent you from embedding websites in iframes.

- The extension's functionality is restricted to the iframes in https://xframe.app.

Drawbacks:

- Websites with login functionality may not work properly due to iframe cookie restrictions
