It can’t be likened to piracy because I am asking the website for a document, they’re giving it to me, suggesting I download other documents, and I am deciding not to.

I am not taking something they own by force on a ship.

I am not distributing their intellectual property to others without authorization.

Except you're offering their bullshit Hobson's choice: submit or live like a Mennonite. Anything now that doesn't involve you jumping at the chance to hand over larger and lager piles of money is deemed "unpatriotic" and "criminal". That sort of groomed consumer bullshit can GTFO.

How should someone know the terms of use BEFORE being served the data (including the terms)? It's not stealing if you're broadcasting.

Remember shrinkwrap EULAs? You agree to a EULA you can't read beforehand by opening the box or shrinkwrap.

Now, there are perpetually-changing EULAs you don't get to agree to that just change underneath you, and are rarely notified about.

I would first need to see the site to get a sense of if I agree with the monetization, but at that I would have seen the ads.

Hence I block all ads,if a site has a nag screen about ad blocker, I block it from my searches with Kagi. I wish it already had a block list for that so I never see these sites at all. Sites who does that are typically of very low quality anyway.

PlugBear provides a seamless way to integrate LangChain(+LangServe) apps with Slack or Discord workspaces.

Effectuation - I felt comforted knowing that I wasn't the only one struggling.

Purple Cow - It's classic but seems quite relevant to AI era.

Thank you!

Building custom AI using OpenAI Assistant is extremely simple. The article describes how to build one and add it to Slack.

Have you tried it with other languages (like Spanish)?

I tried it with Korean, and it worked like a charm :)

PropelAuth + Next.js + Prisma + Supabase, unless I need socket communication or integrating services like Slack.

Thank you for the good feedback! We are considering usage-based pricing. But it must be free for hobby purposes.

Yes, it means non-plus members can access your awesome guts!

PlugBear does not access all your Slack messages. It only receives messages when you mention the @PlugBear to deliver it to your own OpenAI Assistant. Also, we are preparing a way to connect your own Slack bot. Please stay tuned, thank you!

OpenAI Assistant is an awesome tool for building customized AI assistants. However, I found that sharing these assistants with others can be challenging. I really wanted to introduce my bot to my teammates via Slack but, but found no straightforward method.

As a humble software engineer, I developed a service to connect OpenAI Assistant to Slack channels with no code. I'm eager to share this service with fellow OpenAI Assistant enthusiasts for feedback.

PlugBear connects OpenAI assistants to the Slack workspace in just a few clicks.
