I had a similar problem as well, so I wrote a code (read: asked chatgpt to write) that takes the chatgpt export file and turns each conversation into a separate markdown file, which can easily be grepped.

>(read: asked chatgpt to write)

I think the new verb should be "GPT'd"

"I GPT'd this little snippet to slurp my chats from chat.openai and dump them into this searchable blob.

I like to tell gpt to summarize a thread for me when I am done with it for the time being - so I can get a tl;dr and an eli5 and a bullet list of a thread's main points...

A meta-convo tool would be cool to watch your chats and then have a journal of "on this day you talked about these topics" and you can click for context/history/summary....

It would also be cool to in later chats be able to tell it to reference that previous thread for context.

So if you have a bunch of threads on "chemistry" tell gpt to ingest your personal corpus of chemistry for context as it relates to other trains fo thought.

Is there such an AI notebook?

>It would be nice to have a plugin that can parse through all my threads and dump all my prompts and their responses into a table in SQLite or MongoDB, so that I can easily search them

Matrix.org has such a plugin:

I wonder if it could be adapted.

I am currently on GPT/LLM ADHD overload...

I've installed several tools fooocus, S=table Diffusion, Scenario.com too many discords, copilot in VScode...

I feel like I need a fresh full machine and install all tools in a more thoughtful manner - I feel tool-overload...

Any advice on this would be helpful. It feels like everything is so fragmented.

Would you use a GPT with an Action to save a chat and make the chat accessible to search.

yes, locally.

THinking about it, if you're going to make this - then make it do a summarization of the chat thread at the end, then dump the summary with then a link to searching the thread - so if you look up a topic, it will first give you the summary of the thread's content.

Then, you can ask it "tell me the gist of the chats I have had, and have it give a high level summary of the topics of each thread's summary's topics...

So it would reply like:

You've talked about X, y and Z in the past week, mostly related to [topic] you seemed to grasp the most about [topicX] and had the most questions about [topicY]

which thread to revisit?

Create a new thread merging the topics together, etc so you can merge bodies of learning that you have in your chats and keep the original threads/chats.

Kind of like an "*AI Powered Version of CONNECTIONS - the old TV docu-series about how inventiones fed into eachother over decades)

I really like these ideas here! Is privacy a key value proposition here? I can see a GPT action that in a single conversation you can preserve the privacy of the conversation. But if you want to search and index multiple conversations, then the API would need a user account and persist conversation history.

emm is quite simple, so yep, you totally could adapt it - just replace matrix part with your own thing
