Re: Help building Pen.el (GPT for emacs)

[Shane Mulligan]

Hey Richard and all.

I have just participated in the Augment Minds unconference and have a recorded demo of Pen.el

I will also be presenting the demo to Nat Friedman. I have made some references to the new codex model and how it has stolen the inspiration from Free software.

The point I'm making is this: Pen.el and software which combines GPT into the operating system is the future

and I'm alerting GNU to this first but I'm also showing GitHub. This is for the following reasons

- The Copilot/codex model is a disgrace

- We need an free repository of prompts and prompt functions for emacs

I hope the demo which I will send in the next day or two (or whenever it becomes available) will be informative. It will be easier than the asciicast.

Thank you.

Shane Mulligan

Unfortunately, telling me that something is "powerful beyond [my]
current comprehension" does not help me start to comprehend any of it.

Would you like to name some of the services that GPT would replace?
I might learn something concrete from that.

I looked at that page, but I have no idea what it means.  The page
shows three boxes side by side.  Each seems to contain some code, or
maybe parameter specs, in a language I don't know.  I clicked on the
first box and it brought me to a similar page with three other boxes.

It tasks about "asciicasts" but I don't know what that means.
If it is something to be viewed, how can I do so?
