- [Narrator] By this point,
everybody has used ChatGPT.
- ChatGPT.
- ChatGPT, we've been talking about it all day.
- I have been mind blown by ChatGPT.
- [Narrator] It is great at chatting
or writing an occasional funny poem,
but could you make it even more useful?
Cue in AutoGPT, an open source upgrade
that takes the formula of open AI's chatbots
and turns it into a tool with near unlimited potential.
How does it work?
And what can AutoGPT do?
The simple answer is it can prompt itself.
Just give it goals to accomplish, and that's it.
These goals can be as abstract
or as concrete as you want.
AutoGPT will break them into steps
and try to reach them to the best of its abilities.
Would you like it to do some research
before writing you an essay?
Or find out the latest trends
you could use to base a business on?
Just ask.
So, since AutoGPT can prompt itself,
it will think and reason while accomplishing the tasks.
It will look for solutions,
discard the unsuccessful ones,
and consider different options.
It's almost like looking into the thoughts of a person.
You constantly see what is going on and why.
Oh, and it will constantly ask for your approval,
especially if things do not go as intended.
It might even argue with you
if the task is too difficult
or not formulated correctly.
And more importantly, AutoGPT does not have
the main limitation of ChatGPT.
It can go on the internet and look for information.
You can ask it to analyze websites, collect the data,
and save the results on your computer.
How cool is that?
Unfortunately, so far,
AutoGPT does not have a neat visual interface,
and requires a bit of programming knowledge to set up.
Also, it is open source and completely free.
So there's AutoGPT explained in two minutes.
Now that you know what AutoGPT can do,
what would you use it for?
