Phew, it's been a crazy few months!

Putting together a thread of my experiments with #dalle, #gpt3, and more.

🤖 #miniyohei (VC expert)
🎨 DALLE for startups
✍️Blog Post/Product Ideas/SEO Ideas
📝Due Diligence
... and more!

Follow along, I'll keep adding ⬇️
July 9th

The first thing I did was doing "glow ups" of our PixelBeasts!
Aug 15th

Did a collection of 100+ animal inspired buildings using #DALLE called @AnimalBuildings!

Aug 19th

Here's my first VC knowledge expert I built on top of #gpt3 called "Mini Yohei".
Aug 19th

I made a web UI, but also released him on Twitter.

Aug 22nd

Created ability for Mini Yohei to draft blog posts!

Aug 23nd

I start playing with #gpt3's ability to write code... (this comes into play later)
Aug 24th

Invited our portfolio founders into our founder portal (built on @softr_io), where they can use our various AI tools.

Aug 28th

Added "Product Idea Generator" as a skillset for Mini Yohei.
Aug 28th

Tracking improvements in #miniyohei's VC expert answers.

For anyone curious, I'm running multiple prompt templates + tuned model and tracking favorite answers.

Aug 29th

Added/announced handful more #gpt3 based tool for portfolio companies!

Available now in our founder portal, being used, and loved by many 🥰
Sept 1st

Wrote a long write-up on the topic of LLMs, GPT3, DALLE, and more:
Sept 6th

Was told by a founder #miniyohei helped them close an investor!

Talk about scaling value-add :)

Sept 8th

Due Diligence support tool test on top of #gpt3. Great results!
Sept 13th

Huge improvements on my #dalle prompts + use cases for startups.

Thread of examples here:
Sept 17th

Created a "Life Advisory Board" consisting of AI imitations of Ben Franklin, Gandhi, etc..

Sept 17th

Went deeper on #gpt3's ability to help me writing code. Figure out it's pretty good at one page websites.

This led to...
Sept 17th

Generative art using #gpt3, by instructing it to write code that uses html canvas.

Check out the whole thread, art gets pretty cool towards bottom.

Sept 23rd

Released a "custom AI expert builder" that I created w @softr_io @airtable @zapier and @OpenAI over labor day weekend.

Sept 24th

Just another play toy I made for myself after seeing the idea on Twitter.

#gpt3 version of Wikipedia rabbit hole.

Sept 25th

Updated capabilities for #miniyohei's ability to support with Due Dilligence!

Check out the results from this test:

Sept 27th

Running more tests on the DD support tool with real use cases.

Check the thread to see startup descriptions and results.
Oct 5

Launched Geppetto!

A no code AI tool on top of #gpt3 to quickly prototype new app ideas on the go.

geppetto.me
Oct 9

Hacked together voice apps for #stablediffusion and #gpt3 using Apple Shortcuts Scriptable!

Here’s the Stable Diffusion demo (code + shortcut in thread):
Oct 9

Here’s #gpt3 working on the phone.

Input is voice dictation, output is Siri reading response out loud.
Oct 14

Posted a summary of recent exciting X-to-X research. Reached 500k impressions over the weekend!

Oct 16

Prototyped a tool to find relevant startups without worrying about keyword matches, but rather semantic matching.

Useful in finding competitors, relevant tools, and more!

Used OpenAI embeddings for this.

Oct 18

Prototyped a “no code” website builder.

This was really more of an experiment to chain prompts. Don’t think I’ll do more with this.
Oct 19

I've wanted to build a Google Doc integration since I saw @fabianstelzer's Google Sheet.

Here it is!

Template is in thread if you want to copy and play with it.
Oct 20

Built a @zapier integration for #gpt3.

Maybe I can work with @OpenAI to make this available to all.

Who do I talk to?
Oct 21

Built a chatbot with GPT-3.

Purpose was to build out functions to feed the whole chat back to GPT-3 so it can "remember" part of earlier conversations.

This can be used in more than chatbots.

Oct 22

Connected a LinkedIn scraper to GPT-3.

Now I can get anyone's bio with just a LinkedIn URL.

Needs some fix on the parsing of data, but building this functionality directly into our CRM is 🥳

Oct 23

Polished up my GPT-3 integration to Zapier and ran a test.

I can't publish an official one, but I've shared this with a few folks now - excited to help unleash the creativity of the No Code community into the AI community :)

Oct 25

All work and no play makes Yohei a dull boy.

Using Stable Diffusion to play with my kids :)
Oct 26

This time, a request from my wife to do something about all the school emails we're getting.

Solved with #gpt3 + no code!

Oct 27

Quickly prototyped a "No Code AI" app that you define and use at the same time.

Nov 2

Built a generic email summarizer tool that other people can use, based on the school email summarizer I built for myself.
Nov 3

Widely sharing my unofficial @zapier integration for #GPT3.

Add your API key and give it a go!

Nov 4

Within 1 day of API being announced...

Prototyped a Logo Maker with #Dalle API!

Nov 5

Shared a collection of free and open #gpt3 tools where you can use your own @OpenAI API key.

Nov 7

Starting to think about prompting LLMs with knowledge to avoid in the answer, specifically around personalized education use cases.

Nov 10

Built a playful prototype of a positive and friendly social networking site.
Nov 10

Shared a Apple Shortcut/Siri template for #StableDiffusion!

This let's my 3 year old create images directly without asking me to type it out for her :)

Nov 11

Upgraded my unofficial @OpenAI x @zapier integration to be able to do #DALLE as well.
Nov 15

Laying out my masterplan on replacing myself with AI and becoming immortal.
Nov 17

Sharing the Startup Graphics Generator: creates 100 unique images from a simple input.

woah what a week, @pippinlovesyou has 8k+ followers and had his first livestream this weekend.

the meme coin inspired by pippin has 18k holders and the telegram has 4k+.

i collected some key moments from the first week below 👇
this thread from Monday captures the first 36 hours so I’ll drop it here. to summarize:

- posted a pic of a unicorn generated by AI
- upon request, used AI to name it
- a meme coin started
- i jumped in
- decided to turn pippin into an AI influencer
i used Claude to generate some pippin animations and made a site where you can try them out

open-sourcing "babyagi-2o" 🫠

the simplest self-building general autonomous agent that builds and uses new tools as needed

📃 174 lines of code
🔁 single llm loop starting with three tools:
🛠️ create_or_update_tool (dynamically loaded)
📥 install_dependencies
🛑 task_completed (to exit loop)

github/replit👇Image
here is the github:
github.com/yoheinakajima/…

here is the replit:
replit.com/@YoheiNakajima…
this is a quick exploration into the simplest form of an autonomous agent that could hypothetically do anything.

pretty surprised at the variety of tasks it's been able to do (albeit not always well or reliably).

ooooh yess i got this working in 244 lines of code

- single llm loop with three tools
- installs required packages
- creates new tools and loads it for itself dynamically
- uses the tools to handle user request

in this case, i asked it to scrape techmeme:

iter 1: install 'requests'
iter 2: install 'beautifulsoup4'
iter 3: create_tool (error'd)
iter 4: create_tool (worked)
iter 5: use new scrape_techmeme tool
iter 6: write summary

task completed!Image
Image
😮 ohhh... it's less code but can do the same thing* ditto can... it just created a create_directory tool and so on...

*almost the same - it can't create a flask app because it accidentally initiates the flask app and kills the loop. but it can write multi-file apps. Image
Image
Image
for clarification, this is different (and simpler) than ditto, which i just shared

ditto just created a python flask app
this one creates it's own tools

introducing "ditto"
the simplest self-building coding agent

📄 ~500 lines of code
🛠️ can build multi-file apps
🔁 a simple LLM loop with 5 tools

github/replit/more below 👇Image
to jump right into it, here's the @github: github.com/yoheinakajima/…

here's the @replit: replit.com/@YoheiNakajima…

when you run the app, you'll be welcomed with this simple form.

describe the app you want and click "submit" Image
now, sit back and wait as it loops through the LLM calls using the various tools to complete your app.

you'll notice progress updating in the front-end like this Image

okay, i did a thing…

here’s babyagi 2 - a weird Python framework for building a self-building autonomous agent

- stores and executes functions from a database
- auto logging (as graph)
- built-in dashboard & chat playground
- prototype self-build functionality

wanna see? 👇Image
friendly reminder: babyagi is a personal side project being shared publicly. i am not a dev, never studied cs, this is not secure, not meant for production, and meant for playing/as inspiration for developers. Image
it is available on the babyagi repo at:

find the old version archived at babyagi_archive:

but more importantly, you can do this now!

pip install babyagigithub.com/yoheinakajima/…

A helpful autonomous agent has access to all the tools you need - and nothing more. But we all have different needs, changing all the time, so...

what we need is a self-building autonomous agent.

Here, I'll describe the 3 levels of self-building autonomous agents:Image
Before we start, this is Level 0.

A library of functions built by human developers that the AI has access to. The agent is not building its own functions.*

*tools, skills, api calls, are all just functions Image
Level 1: Request-based

Users can request to have functions generated by an AI, and when they query the system, the new function is available as an option for the AI to use.

*There's lots that goes into this "Create Function Tool", but let's keep the chart simple (eg. documentation search)Image
