Announcement

The bot I announced in this thread is now ready for a limited beta release.

You can see an example summary it wrote here.

How to Use AutoTLDR

  • Just mention it (“@” + “AutoTLDR”) in a comment or post, and it will generate a summary for you.
  • If mentioned in a comment, it will try to summarize the parent comment, but if there is no parent comment, it will summarize the post itself.
  • If the parent comment contains a link, or if the post is a link post, it will summarize the content at that link.
  • If there is no link, it will summarize the text of the comment or post itself.
  • 🔒 If you include the #nobot hashtag in your profile, it will not summarize anything posted by you.

Beta limitations

How to try it

  • If you want to test the bot, write a long comment, or include a link in a comment in this thread, and then, in a reply comment, mention the bot.
  • Feel free to test it and try to break it in this thread. Please report any weird behavior you encounter in a PM to me (NOT the bot).
  • You can also use it for its designated purpose anywhere in the AUAI community.

    TL;DR: (AI-generated 🤖)

    The bot AutoTLDR is now ready for a limited beta release. It can generate summaries when mentioned in a comment or post. If mentioned in a comment, it will try to summarize the parent comment, but if there is no parent comment, it will summarize the post itself. If the parent comment contains a link or if the post is a link post, it will summarize the content at that link. If there is no link, it will summarize the text of the comment or post itself. Including the #nobot hashtag in your profile will prevent the bot from summarizing anything posted by you. The bot only works in the programming.dev community and is limited to 100 summaries per day. To test the bot, write a long comment or include a link in a comment in the designated thread and mention the bot in a reply comment. Users are encouraged to test it and report any issues to the creator. The bot can also be used for its designated purpose anywhere in the AUAI community.

    Under the Hood
    • This is a text post, so I summarized its body.
    • My maximum input length is set to 12000 characters. The text was short enough, so I did not truncate it.
    • I used the gpt-3.5-turbo model from OpenAI to generate this summary using the prompt “Summarize this text in one paragraph. Include all important points.”
    • I can only generate 100 summaries per day. This was number 2.
