Ultimate Guide To Auto-GPTs in a Browser

If you use ChatGPT before, but you weren't that impressed with the results, you're gonna love this video because this really takes it to the next level. Automatic GPTs that work by themselves and get your results without you having to interact with it. That's the topic of this video. And what they provide is the following. Usually if you interact with ChatGPT, it's you and ChatGPT. You give it commands, it gives you results. And I find that most people that are unimpressed with the results didn't give the best commands to begin with, or they might have needed Internet access to complete the tasks they were looking for. The apps that we're about to look at solve both of these, kind of. And I say that because they're anything but perfect, but they're fascinating and for certain use cases, they're actually really useful already. So with that being said, it's time to sit back and relax because I'm about to lead you for the world of automatic GPTs and what is possible today. Okay, so first things first. There's many of these, and I would put them into two categories. There's the ones that run locally, where you kind of need the basics of coding to run them. AutoGPT and baby AGI fall into this category. And then there's all the web interfaces that have been popping up over the past few weeks. That's the ones that we'll be looking at this week because realistically for most people, these are the only ones that you're going to end up using. Now, there's different ones, they come with various limitations and capabilities, so we're going to talk about that in this video. But what all of them have in common is that there's the settings icon and then you have to link up your API key for this to work. You can find your very own API keys here. And before we begin, I would strongly recommend you set up usage limits under billing. Usage limits. And then set these up to whatever you're comfortable with, because it can happen that you forget about these. They just keep running and they'll drain your entire account. And if you want a step by step tutorial, I did a video on Agent GPT a few weeks ago where I showed you exactly how to hook it up and how to start using it. But essentially, once you have your API key, you're good to go. And now we can start exploring. Okay, so we looked at Agent GPT as soon as it came out, but now they upgraded it, so you can see they added different GPT Personas that are particularly good for one task. They also added web search, but more on that soon. And in the settings, you can see that we have way more settings now, which I absolutely love, because now you can actually pick your language. And in the advanced settings, the most important thing in here is the looping. So can you. So you can pick how often it can prompt itself. The temperature is something like the creativity of the model. How much out of the box thinking do you want where 1 represents super creative and 0 represents super conservative? And then obviously you get to pick the model. And I'll just say all of these work way better with GPT4, and I signed up on the first day and got lucky, so I have access to it. So if you don't have access to that API yet, follow along with this video and I'll be doing a live stream where we explore this together with my GPT4 API. All right, so that's some nice additions to what we know already. But beyond that, there's Godmode space that you might have heard of already. And this is a different version of it where it asks for more of your input, which I kind of like. And at this point, we should start talking about how these work and how to use them. So overall, you give them a goal that you want to achieve. This is not about coming up with instructions and context like with usual prompts. This is all about giving it the final destination to where you want to get. So instead of saying, write me a sales email for my company, you would say, send out sales emails for my company. Again, many limitations to this, and it's not going to work perfectly, but it's fascinating. And this is where the space is going. So it's important that we start learning about this as soon as possible, which is now. Okay. And then there's a third one that popped up a few days ago, and this is the web interface for baby AGI. And I find this one to be the best, except it doesn't have access to the Internet yet. So let's talk about that. It's obviously a key feature in some of these, especially when you're trying to do research. It's really good to have access to the Internet right now. And the deal here is, if you were to set up auto GPT on your very own machine manually, which honestly might be too much to ask of most people that never used code before, you could access the Internet and you would get all the custom options that you get from these different apps. But honestly, even for myself having that and Having this. I end up using this interface most of the time just because it's so convenient. And often tasks I want to explore come up spontaneously. And over the past few days, just pulling this up, switching this to GPT4 and inputting objective down here is what I find myself doing the most. But if you do need Internet access, well, Agent GPT added it. But right now this button is disabled on the roadmap. It says they'll have it back up and running permanently within the week. So by the time you see the video it should work again. God mode has Internet access, but it really depends on your input if the results are useful or not. So this one I would just experiment with. And Baby AGI as of today doesn't have it yet, but apparently we'll be adding it soon. All right, so we're getting deeper and deeper on this topic. But before we go into some use cases and show you what is actually possible, I want to show you two more apps because you should totally take note of these. So one of them is Ibaby AGI by Nate Chan on Twitter and he took the baby AGI code and he put it into iOS app. So if you go on here, you can totally download the brand new application on the iOS store and have this thing with you on the phone at all times, which is pretty amazing. And a lot of the things we look at is built on top of the shoulders of Yohei here, which created the original Baby AGI which by him open sourcing it allowed other people to build on top. And this is the last app I want to show you before we get into the use cases and that is baby AGI for all. So you might have heard of this GPT4 model that is completely free but quite limited. Well, Detlave here on Twitter went ahead and hooked it up to Baby AGI and this one only has the basic functionality so far and requires basic coding knowledge for you to run this. But the result would be that you have a simplified version of GPT4 running on your local machine that can prompt itself where you deploy various agents and it just works by itself. So really that's kind of the alpha version of the ultimate thing that you would want to have, right? Automatic version of GPT4 that can work by itself and complete tasks on your computer by itself. I personally wouldn't recommend this yet. It's too early. I find this free version of GPT4 called GPT4All to be a little too basic for most use cases. That's why I didn't create A separate video about it. And again, it's also early days for all these autogpts, agent GPTs, however you want to call them, so they're not extremely useful yet, although there are some use cases. So now that you have an overview, let's finally get into the practical part of this, this video. Okay, so I would say let's just dive right in with a prompt that we used on the channel here before. Develop a marketing plan for my AI YouTube channel that spreads awareness of my AI tutorials beyond YouTube. So up here, I'll pick GPT4 as it is the best you can totally experiment with 3.5, but let's not kid ourselves. GPT4 is so much better inside of these automated apps. And then to begin with, we'll say free iterations. And that's what I like to start with. And for the first task, developing a task list is usually the best. So this is it. I hooked up my API. There's not much more to this. I'll just say run and it's going to start, start doing it. And the amazing thing about Babyagi in the web interface, it actually works and it's reliable. It doesn't get lost in loops. And the results are very useful compared to some of these other web apps that are more experimental. And you get useful results sometimes. But from Baby AGI, I was able to retrieve useful results regularly. So, as you'll see, first it's creating a task list here. We'll just have to wait a little bit till it's done. Okay, so there you go. The first result is we have a task list here. Define the target audience, research the competition, create a content strategy. And here you can really see the difference between just prompting ChatGPT and doing this. Because really, getting the best results from ChatGPT and GPT4 is all about being sophisticated about your prompts and knowing what exactly to ask. Here you just lay out a goal, and it finds the different prompts that it's supposed to run to get to that goal. Is it going to find the optimal path and the optimal prompts? No, it's not perfect and it doesn't have all the context it needs. But is it going to get you better results than just running this inside of GPT4? Absolutely, yes. And also, let me say this. One of my favorite ways to use this is I just start with something generic or a short prompt like this, and then it's going to lay out all the different parts, and I'm just going to take these one by one and craft My own prompts from these. Right. Like I could take defining the target audience and turn this into a 10 line prompt that is super specific to my organization, my needs. And I would also provide the information that I already know about my customers. And then I could run this prompt sequence by myself inside of GPT4 and get similar results. But this is really going to get you started and it's just fascinating to look at. And as you can see below, it's already at work. It's developing a channel branding strategy. Create a consistent visual identity and tone for your AI YouTube channel to increase recognition and credibility. And it's just doing that all one by one. And now I gave it three tasks to complete. Right. But if I say 50, it's going to go through and make this entire to do list happen for you. Okay, so that's the basic approach. You just take the prompts you have for ChatGPT and you move away from providing instructions and some context to giving a final goal and some context. And just that alone is going to get you very far. But you can go further and actually use the Internet search capabilities of these things. So for example, if I go to Godmode space and I paste in the prompt that we shared in the weekly newsletter that went out yesterday and it looks something like this. Use Google Trends, then the URL to Google Trends to analyze the search volume and interest for keywords related to and who are going to replace the product or service. I'm going to say generative AI education and we're going to say in the AI industry and then we round it up by saying identify emerging trends and potential niche opportunities. Now we did pick GPT4 and we're just going to launch this. And as you'll be able to see, God Mode has a little bit of a different approach. It's going to give us the tasks to pick from. So this is more interactive and less automated. Okay, so here's free suggestions. So identify relevant keywords related to generative AI education in the AI industry. Sure. Use Google Trends. Yes. And then emerging trends and potential niche opportunities. Sure. Let's launch this. And now it's going to start working. It has these free tasks that we defined and by clicking this button you can just lean back, have a drink because this is going to auto approve all the requests for the next 10 minutes. And a good thing about this interface is that you're going to be able to give it some feedback while it performs, so you can add context while it goes. But as you can see, it proposes the first action, right, let's use Google and input keywords related to generative AI education in the AI industry and it's going to Google that for you. And now that we have Auto Approve enabled, it's just going to do all these things one by one. And again, don't expect any miracles. These things are developing on a daily basis and they came out of the few weeks ago. But this is the direction everything is going in. Okay, you're going to be setting goals, and ChatGPT is going to be prompting itself towards that goal. So the skill of writing clear prompts is not going to go away, but it's not going to be necessary for every step of the way anymore, because it's going to be able to come up with these tasks and execute on top of them. But as you can see here, it's always going to be able to take additional input from your side. Usually giving additional context in some form is the way to go here. And again, that brings us back to the basic prompt framework of instructions plus context. Because if the instructions that it's doing are fine, you don't need to touch that. All you need to do is add additional context if it's necessary. But if it's going in the wrong direction, yes, go ahead and change the instructions. So that would be my pro tip on how to get optimal results. Okay, the next step, we're going to look at Agent GPT. And what I want to do here is actually take one of my newer prompts, create budgets. And as you can see, this is going to help us create a budget for my $3,500 monthly income by allocating funds to rent, groceries, transportation, health insurance. Then we assign categories to the various expenses we have. And then in the end we say, while taking account saving for a wedding in three years. Okay, and we're just going to paste this into the goal. And as you can see, we have the instruction here. Right, Help me create a budget. And then all of this is context. And this is a classic prompt. And as I said before, you could also reformat this to be focused on the goal. But in this particular case where it's create me a budget and then you have all the constraints, that is kind of the goal. You want the budget, that is your goal. So just always post a question, does my prompt result in some goal? If the answer is yes, it's probably going to work super well in here. Okay, I'm going to switch the gpu. We're going to have it on automatic mode, and I'm going to set the loop to three iterations to start with. And in this case I'll take the temperature down to about 0.4 and you can experiment with this. But generally speaking, with something like a budget, you don't want that much creativity. Right. It's just like if you're hiring an accountant, you want a super conservative and orderly accountant. That's why I took the temperature down here. I'll just call this budget assistant and we're ready to deploy our agent and it's going to start working on this. As you can see, it got right to it. It added the task of calculating the average cost of a wedding right away. Because we need to keep that in mind. And if you're paying attention, you would realize, oh wait, maybe I could have provided that the cost of the wedding that I wanted to calculate for. Right. And it doesn't have to do the step and it's going to be more precise. So if you wanted to do that, you would stop the agent, add that to your prompt and rerun it. But let's just go with this. Next up, it researches and suggests a percentage based budget allocation for essential discretionary and saving investment categories. So it respects our categories. That's fantastic. And only then it creates a monthly budget plan. So now it's working on the first thing and it came up that in the United States a wedding costs around $28,000,000. And then it divides it into the three years, coming up with the number of $777 that you need to save every single month. Fantastic. All right, the next up, respecting that situation, that context that it just came up with itself, it starts splitting up your budget into different categories and gives you all the reasoning behind it. So look, this is fascinating and actually really useful. If you're creating a budget and don't have much experience with that, a prompt like this is really going to get you going. And to round everything out, I just want to show you some of the coolest use cases some of the people across the Internet came up with. So for example, this guy hooked up auto GPT to 11 labs, which allows you to produce realistic voices and he used it to order a pizza successfully. Why is it always pizza? I don't know if you're familiar, but the first real world bitcoin transaction was a guy buying two pizzas for 10,000 Bitcoin back in 2010. So I guess we're at that moment with AI right now. Anyway, here's another one that I'm experimenting with and once I perfect it, I'LL show it off on the channel, but you can essentially use these agents to research your podcast and your videos. So Here he had 5 different searches in 15 different web browsers, and AutoGPT just prepared all the topics for the all in podcast, which by the way, I couldn't recommend enough. It's my favorite podcast. And then here Nicholas shows off how to use Agent GPT that we just looked at for competitor analysis for specific products. So all these things you can explore. I'll include all the links below. There's so much fun to be had with this. So now you have all the links, you have all the basic resources, you know how it works, and even if you don't have GPT4, don't let that hold you back. Take the 3.5, start playing with it and see what you get and how it differs from ChatGPT. Because this is the direction the space is evolving in, and by you becoming proficient at prompt design and these primitive versions of these auto GPTs, once the better versions come around, you're going to be way ahead of everybody else because you're going to understand how this stuff works at a fundamental level. But if you don't want to do it yourself, here's the live stream where I'll be exploring some of these with the GPT4 API. And if that's not out yet, turn on notifications because it will be soon.
