WinLaunch Assistant

Very cool, will it also install apps itself? @deep wharf

[deep wharf]

Not yet, but thats a great idea, I'll see what i can do about it!

[rare vector]

thanks! I think it would be useful as people don't usually have a ton of apps installed on their computers, it would also let your product offer benefit in another way by being sort of an ai assisted package manager

[deep wharf]

added the ability to run commands

[mortal token]

@deep wharf how did you do it?

[deep wharf]

what exactly do you mean?

[mortal token]

I meant how did you do the GPT launching and running commands on your PC

[deep wharf]

I'm using the new Assistants API and its executing a function called shell_execute which is mapped to ShellExecuteA (a common c++ windows API function, so it knows how to use it properly)

[mortal token]

And how does your GPT browse the web?

Are you paying an API for the GPT to browse the web?

[rare vector]

@mortal token Likely using the google search API, which is free up to a certain point of queries / month

[mortal token]

Someone told me that the Google search API is private though

[rare vector]

It is not private no

Anyone can sign up for it and it can search the entire web

[mortal token]

Where do I go to get the Google Search API then since I'm looking to integrate this into my GPT Assistant

Ohh I get it your talking about Custom Search API am I correct?

[mortal token]

Is it called Custom Search API?

[rare vector]

yeah

[deep wharf]

Actually at the moment it just opens a web search in the browser, might improve this later

[mortal token]

Ah okay and it uses Google Search API yes?

Kaveen told me that's what it uses.

[deep wharf]

It passes the search query as a get parameter to the google website

[deep wharf]

I'm looking for beta testers right now, if you are interested please send me a direct message with your email, you'll get some free credits and can try to break the assistant etc.

[deep wharf]

Added persistent memory to the assistant, and it can now add notes to applications and files to adapt to each user individually

you could let gpt have the option to rename itself from winlaunch assistant to jack in the interface 😉
