@thorn basin What knowledge does it use?
Was gonna make one by just importing a bunch of transcripts of overly long blender tutorials on youtube lol
thorn basin
that might have problems with outdated tutorials. and Blender very recently updated to 4.0
I was going to check and export Blender's own documentation, but the sites seem to be down.
I should definitely add keymap files for latest versions. it's been added
thorn basin
seems like their sites were being attacked. no wonder I couldn't access it. is resolved

wpw ;p;

I don't know what that means...
It's updated to reference the official 'Blender 4.0 Manual' site for up-to-date instructions / guidance.
I considered downloading the 'Blender 4.0 Manual' but it is quite fragmented (2k+ .html files)
and uploaded a Keyboard Shortcuts .pdf file to its knowledge

How much does it slow it down when it has to read it compared to without.
Ideally it shouldn't have to think about it for ages to answer.
thorn basin
or just has browsing enabled and looks it up?
Currently it's set up to find relevant tutorials just via browsing enabled.
I have more knowledge in blender and the arts than I do APIs and the like.
thorn basin
I plan to add more knowledge regarding where artists can look to find community like art & Blender discords and various sites. How to ask for human feedback (ie. patience, not asking to ask, etc). How to use references, and what software like PureRef could help.

Questions seem to take around 30 seconds at first
At most
Sometimes it's significantly shorter

Alright, I'll try adding the file again sometime.

Alright, I finally managed to get it uploaded with GPT builder (directly still didn't work). I've also added mention of PureRef & Allusion (nifty stuff) and information regarding how to get feedback / ask questions from real people. And link to Blender's official list of communities.
