datasette-paste-table VS gpt-anywhere

I often use it as a thesaurus. "Words that mean X" or even "that situation X me and I was annoyed - give me options for X"

For programming, all sorts of things. I use it all the time for programming languages that I'm not fluent in, like AppleScript or bash/zsh/jq. One recent example: https://til.simonwillison.net/gpt3/chatgpt-applescript

I use it as a rapid prototyping tool. I got it to build me a textarea I could paste TSV values into to preview that data as a table recently, one prompt produced exactly the prototype I wanted: https://github.com/simonw/datasette-paste-table/issues/1

I use it for brainstorming. "Give me 40 ideas for Datasette plugins involving AI" - asking for 40 ideas means that even if the first ten are generic and obvious there will be some interesting ones further down the list.

I used it to generate an OpenAPI schema when I wrote my first ChatGPT plugin, see prompt in https://simonwillison.net/2023/Mar/24/datasette-chatgpt-plug...

I'm beginning to think there's one too many of these kinds of apps, but if anyone is interested in a cross-platform (Mac, Linux, Windows) alternative, I've built a command-palette type interface [1] to GPT that supports code blocks/LaTeX too.

I noticed my productivity with GPT was closely tied to how quickly I could access it. For example, Copilot is so useful to me because it's directly integrated into the browser. So I decided to build a Spotlight Search-esque interface to GPT that I could access anywhere [1]. It's been useful in answering quick questions or drafting documents.

I believe I've fixed the issue. Please reinstall with the latest installer and let me know if the settings page appears now! As always, thanks for the feedback.
