Mind-Blowing Automation with ChatGPT and Open Interpreter - This Changes EVERYTHING!

Using the Open Interpreter, it is possible to give ChatGPT access to your local files and data. Once it has access, automation becomes a breeze. Reading, writing, summarizing, modifying, renaming, all just by asking nicely! Open Interpreter uses ChatGPT to write code to fulfil the requested task and then runs that code to do it. Brilliant!

As long as everything runs completeley locally, this is really cool!

[Speak_Out_and_Remove_All_Doubt]

I would perpetually live in fear that that it would 'hallucinate' I wanted all of my files securely erased!

[madwilliamflint]

Couldn't pay me enough money to give that thing access to my data. I love the local options and have been working on designing a dedicated box for it.

Nothing is so "cool" that it's worth that level of privacy invasion.

[Jammet]

I think this is the one thing that I will do myself. If I stop taking care over my files and data on that very basic level, I fear, I might completely lose touch with what these files even are.

[trobinsun]

Crazy ! I have a question : when you use chatGPT, your data are transfered to openai, so there is a risk, no ? As I work on companies documents, I should instal llama localy ?

[drmosfet]

All the other YouTube videos about open interpreter jump head first into the program with out explaining what exactly open interpreter is. You did a much better job than the other YouTube videos on this subject 👍.
Thanks, I'll have to look at that Liam's chat program video you mention.

FACT: It is extremely foolish to let an online AI language model openai or otherwise have direct access to your files and data. Too early to know the risks? but you probably already have a idea of what is possible. Instead be safe use at a local large language model on your own PC that is not leaking your data to a corporation that you have absolutely no idea what it is doing with it.

[hamzaaqiqi]

Awesome! Thank you for showing the possibilities! Looking forward to a gui version of this 🤤

Hi Gary, I'd say very impressive but that's an understatement. Time for a practical arduino video example? ChatGPT writing code for an arduino demo, something along the lines of Star Trek, just a thought. Thank you for your time, videos AND enthusiasm.

I can't imagine having this without a version control system in place (possibly automated). Imagine prompts that are wrongly interpreted as "delete..." or "encrypt..." or caused by hallucination.

[PrinceCyborg]

Funny you mention talking to it with speech-to-text, I did just that in a experiment the other day.

[Squallpka]

Tried this. Man... We are so close to get something like "Jarvis" and "Friday" in Ironman.

[FilmFactry]

Gary, one thing I'm not sure about is best practices for multi-step "Command" do you need to do it step by step or can it handle a single complex prompt. Example, Rename those JPG. Resize them to "X", Upload the files to this website, Create a text file of each JPG describing the main subject. Where does this tech break as you give it a more real-world task. Thanks.

This is amazing & mind blowing!!!

Jarvis is

[Chris-hihn]

can you still use this tool with chatgpt 3.5? the -f option doesn't appear to work and it seems I'm only able to use chatgpt 4

[ed-jfxh]

If it is soley contained on your computer/server, maybe. If it has access to the internet, absolutely not. Giving ChatGPT access to anything on your side of your firewall is asking for trouble.

[bluekeybo]

Please post the link to the tool you're describing in the video description

[STEVEJOY]

I up graded my Mac OS and my driver to my Light Scribe DVD burner on longer worked. Could this ChatGPT fix my driver? So I could again burn pictures on my DVDs. Fixing software would truly be useful.

[trancendedmindpalace]

I wonder if you could use voice to text software or the native stuff on windows and speak to it that way

[Mac_Daffy]

Given the current title a lot won‘t watch the video and just start a controversy about sharing your personal data with Open AI.

Having this sort of phyton script based personal automator is a nice idea. The use cases will be bound by the bandwidth and the context window size for this all text based approach.
