Go to ConfigAnd Clear Config: open ChatGPT configuration directory (path: ~/.chatgpt/); clear ChatGPT configuration data (path: ~/.chatgpt/).
Toggle Developer Tools: Website debugging tool, may be needed to debug pages or scripts.

5.3 Configuration function

# user_custom：需要手动录入 (Control Conter -> Language Model -> User Custom)
# sync_prompts：从 f/awesome-chatgpt-prompts 同步数据 (Control Conter -> Language Model -> Sync Prompts)

7 discussion

Recently, it has been discovered that quite a few old six directly copy the questions to ChatGPT and then paste the answers to various communities, blogs, and forums to "fool" the questioners. The original intention of ChatGPT is that artificial intelligence improves and improves people's lives, not making people artificial intelligence.

For most friends, the functions of the web version are sufficient, and those with strong hands-on ability can connect to the API port. It is recommended that the official website API Key, gpt3.5 is far more effective than the third-party interface gpt3. The author personally tested that using crawler + building a workflow is very useful for crawling and organizing abstracts, backgrounds and other content. You can continue to explore more functions, just for learning and communication.
