Run it

In peace-of-mind:

$ npx halbot

If you have multible AI engines configed, use '/chatgpt' or '/bing' to switch between them, or you can use '/*' to ask them all at the same time.

❤️ Become a sponsor to halbot

For $10/month, you can access the official halbot service for a month.

You don't need to pay $20/month for ChatGPT tokens separately.

halbot is stable. It's running on top of the latest GPT-4 model. It has a better user experience than the official web app. You can access halbot from your favourite Telegram apps on your phone, tablet and computer.

Additionally, halbot has a lot of built-in input parsers to maximize the ChatGPT engine's power.

halbot can now parse webpages, YouTube videos, PDFs, images, Office documents, code files, and text files. And other parsers are coming soon.

halbot integrates Text-to-Image service by DALL·E 3. You can ask it to draw what you want.

halbot also supports Text-to-Speech and Speech-to-Text. You can talk to the AI engines to get help with your job.

And remember, you can always use the codes in this repo to build your own halbot instant. This project will keep open source forever.

Foundations

• halbot uses my other project 🧰 utilitas as the basic framework to handle all the dirty work.
• halbot uses 🤖 utilitas.alan to communicate with the AI engines.
