Experience AI-Powered Summarization and Categorization

At the core of ClipGPT is an AI-engine that intelligently summarizes and categorizes your notes and bookmarks. Users no longer need to manually sift through piles of information, as ClipGPT curates content in a way that is easily digestible and accessible.

Explore New Content and Follow Friends

ClipGPT’s “Explore” offers a curated selection of trending content, giving users a chance to discover something new across the entire platform, whereas the “Feed” gives them an easy way to digest the things tha the people they follow are saving to the platform. Users can also follow “labels”, which provides an opportunity to follow topics of interest on a deeper level. Users can also interact through comments on specific shared items within the platform, and everything is markdown enabled for a deeper level of customization.

Collaborate with Public and Private Groups

ClipGPT encourages collaboration by allowing users to create and join both public and private groups. These groups are a more deliberate option on top of the AI-smarts, which allow content sharing and discussions around a specifically curated collection of bookmarks and notes. Perhaps you have a few close friends that share a similar interest in a topic, or you are collecting ideas for your home with a significant other.

Power User Features for Enhanced Productivity

For users seeking advanced functionality, ClipGPT offers features such as emailing links directly to their profile, importing bookmarks from other tools, and a very cool feature that transcribes and summarizes audio content into text format using the Whisper API.

“I’m super excited to show ClipGPT to everyone,” said Danny Peck, Founder and lead developer of ClipGPT. “It’s a love letter to the Internet that I feel combines the best part of these types of tools from an older time of the web, but with something modern and brand new on top. I hope it will be something people get a joy out of using.”

Are we on a collision course to bringing back the dead with AI?

We’ve seen incredible advancements in artificial intelligence over the last year. Not just language models like ChatGPT, but also artistic expression models like Stable Diffusion, DALL-E 2.0, and MidJourney. We’ve seen experiments that give you the ability to make AI-generated music based on a prompt, and now Microsoft is experimenting with a new one called VALL-E, which is a voice language model that can recreate a person’s voice, complete with the ability to convey emotion, based on only 3 seconds of audio.

Where’s this all going? It feels like we’re on the precipice of something big and interesting here.

I have to imagine that the convergence of these technologies is the logical conclusion of the advancements we’ve seen so far. Currently these AI systems are silo’d from one another, but I imagine a world where they work together to perform much more complicated tasks.

…we’re literally moments away from the ability to create a synthesized version of anyone.

For better or for worse, there are currently a lot of people and companies very interested in the idea of creating simulated versions of real people. The wild part of this is, the technology is already there. From the language models that can be fine tuned based on their training data, to the ability to create completely new images of a person based on previous images combined with customized prompts, to the ability to generate a voice model based on a few disparate audio recordings, we’re literally moments away from the ability to create a synthesized version of anyone.

On the one hand, the idea of conversing with your deceased dad, pouring your heart out about the things you wish you had told him when he was alive, receiving words of comfort from him, as he replies in the subtle ways that only he would, might sound incredibly creepy and unsettling. On the other, though, there are millions of people who need to have this sort of conversation in order to heal.

This is only one of a thousand potential applications of such a technology. At the very least, I imagine a world where we’ll be able to customize our voice assistants to our liking: from the voice, to the personality, to the name. We’re a ways off from realizing the movie Her, but you can probably already see a near future version where our digital assistants have gotten a lot better at showing us compassion and empathy, and connecting with us on a more personal level.

It’s a new and exciting time to be alive. I find it fascinating to witness these new emerging technologies. There are indeed murky waters ahead, and we’re for sure going to make mistakes along the way, but I do imagine that there does exist a better version of the future where these technologies are harnessed for good, and can have a net-positive impact on our world.
