Hi, I’m Alex. I created Eightify to take my mind off things during a weekend, but I was surprised that my friends were genuinely interested in it. I kept going, and now it’s been nine weeks since I started. I got the idea to summarize videos when my friend sent me a lengthy video again. This happens to me often; the video title is so enticing, and then it turns out to be nothing. I had been working with GPT for 6 months by the time, so everything looked like a nail to me. It’s a Chrome extension, and I’m offering 5 free tries for videos under an hour. After that, you have to buy a package. I’m not making money yet, but it pays for GPT, which can be pricey for long texts. And some of Lex Fridman’s podcasts are incredibly long. I’m one of those overly optimistic people when it comes to GPT. So many people tell me, “Oh, it doesn’t solve this problem yet; let’s wait for GPT-4”. The real issue is that their prompts are usually inadequate, and it takes you anywhere from two days to two weeks to make it work. Testing and debugging, preferably with automated tests. I believe you can solve many problems with GPT-3 already. I would love to answer any questions you have about the product and GPT in general. I’ve invested at least 500 hours into prompt engineering. And I enjoy watching other people’s prompts too!
