elicit.org. find scientific papers and makes a quick summary. You can also ask about the paper.

It's AI Bing search but more specific to technical questions and it has become the cornerstone of my daily workflow as a software developer.

Maybe try this site, they have a great assortment of stuff to try in a neatly organised collection:

Perplexity.ai is the best, without question beats ChatGPT. You can setup GPT-4 for ChatGPT answers, but it requires an account. Thankfully they accept alias email address for accounts. Regardless of GPT-4, the site always provides filters like all or academic and also provides sources for any provided information. It is the only way I use AI!

Edit: Perplexity also offers a conscience explanation by default but you can ask for a detailed explanation as well. It's the bee's knee's

Perplexity.ai became my go-to AI if I not only want text output, but also sources (for quality, checks, proofs).

I liked it at first, but recently (using the app) I’ve had major issues with response times. Like minutes if it gives me an answer at all.

Maybe look at updating it, alpha only recently come out. I use the webapp though, so maybe try that if you were digging it and no updates available.

I can +1 this

Their gpt4 copilot is nearly a useless thing it throws clarifying questions at you despite you have cleared them up in your promt, and then starts to ramble on forgetting half of the stuff from your original prompt

I primarily use it as an information source, so I haven't really examined that aspect of it. Hopefully it improves over time.

www.phind.com - it's a combo AI + search engine geared towards developers. You get the AI answer and the search engine answer side-by-side, and the AI answer will cite it's sources for you to investigate/verify what it's telling you

I've had it generate a couple drinks I really want to try. Think it still limits you to three per day though.

Seems interesting lol

Adobe has a tool that’s free to use in beta. It enhances audio significantly by removing background noise. It part of their podcast tools platform, but I forget what it’s called.

There is another project that does that same thing that can run locally called β€œmayavoz”, but it’s not as good as Adobe and a bit difficult to get running as the sample code on their GitHub, is missing some text that saves the file after it’s processed.

I forget exactly what text is missing, but the creator of the app shared it with me on Reddit. I guess he never updated his GitHub.

I'm looking for one that does images without subscriptions

Code completion (and more) tools like IntelliSense or Copilot. People talk about chatgpt replacing programmers, but it's pretty shit for code that isn't super straight forward or has a little bit of complexity. Code completion/suggestion tools are so much better because they don't hallucinate code...
