chatgpt-raycast: ChatGPT raycast extension

I am not musical but I asked ChatGPT to write me a pop song about a beautiful girl named Diane (my sister's name) just for fun.

I've tried to register (https://chat.openai.com/) and I get the error message: "Oops! The email you provided is not supported. Please contact us through our help center if this issue persists."

Check out ChatGPT if you have a chance while it's still free. Unlike Siri or Alexa the conversation is much more human like and you can ask it complex questions. Here's a decent article on it.

ChatGPT, OpenAI's artificial intelligence chatbot actually knows one or two things about movies. It can confidently provide answers to queries like:

- "Provide a list of action movies where the protagonist is female and wields a shotgun and their IMDB IDs"

and ChatGPT's answers are quite spot on!

The next task was: How to integrate ChatGPT into Media Hoarder?

Media Hoarder runs on Electron which allows to fully control a browser window. So you can:

- open up a browser window and launch https://chat.openai.com

Create an account here: http://chat.openai.com

If you're using https://newsboat.org, you can add a filter (killfile) to remedy this:

  ignore-article "*" "title =~ \"#shorts\""

I use newsboat.

I'm happy with newsboat[1]; but I'm not surprised that people have integrated scraping into RSS readers.

Fundamentally, that's not a problem with RSS, that's a war between scrapers and content providers. If the email newsletter model persists long enough, I'd expect that people will come out with "newsletter readers" that scrape websites too.

I'm not sure there's a good long-term solution to the problem. Aside from constant vigilance (obfuscation).

So, I installed a terminal RSS reader called Newsboat and added the feed to it. I have it always running in a terminal, and the scores refresh every minute. I can open the Cricinfo link in a browser by selecting a match and typing o.

Not at the moment. There is an open Github issue asking for that feature, however, no idea if/when that will be implemented: https://github.com/newsboat/newsboat/issues/904

Here's part of my newsboat config (works great for subscriptions):
