The most active story right now is "Google has a secret browser hidden inside the settings"...

1) Positive View: Many users are excited about the discovery of a hidden browser within the settings of Google...

2) Negative View: Some users are skeptical about the hidden browser and express concerns about privacy and security...

Here are some active users commenting with a negative view on the story about the Google secret browser:

[It lists a few users with summary comments but from unrelated stories and then...]

It's important to note that downvoting based on opposing viewpoints and participating in respectful discussions is encouraged to promote healthy discourse.

[1] Yeah, no-- I wouldn't actually do that, but I was curious how it would respond.

Good observation here – it's currently using the gpt-3.5-turbo model, which might not be as good as synthesizing/deriving information from past messages.

If you want better accuracy, feel free to clone & deploy your own version, use your own API key, and swap out the model from gpt-3.5-turbo to gpt-4

(I had to use gpt-3.5-turbo to not go broke lol)

>If you want better accuracy

Oh, I have no criticism of your project at all, and my comment wasn't intended as such. (And I am very sorry and apologize if I wrote it in a way that conveyed that sentiment)

It's just that with every development, every inch in the expansion of these models' capabilities, my initial reflexive response is the horrible misuse to which it might be applied. Scenarios quite literally flash through my mind fully formed.

This is the foundation of my ambivalence on this technology. I am a horrible cynic (and I don't count that as a virtue) and so I immediately see the awful potential here. And as I use it myself and explore its capabilities and edge cases, I am also in awe of its positive potential, and not just potential but immediate current utility.

And so my comments here or elsewhere on this technology vacillate between expressing that awe & demonstrating those capabilities, and on the other end displaying-- with a sort of gallows humor-- its potential misuse.

With respect to your project, I am impressed. I like it very much. You've created a tool that allows a user to dynamically explore this community in a way that is easy to use and versatile. And as awful a cynic as I am, I am also at the same time often a naïve optimist (I'm undecided on the level of virtuosity that embodies). This makes my headspace a strange place (I thinks that applies to most people) and me chronically uncertain and self-critical of my own opinions. (This is something that I do in fact consider a virtue. I am sometimes horrified when someone expresses something with absolute and unshakeable certainty)

How much is it costing you out of interest?
