SmartGPT

A Node.js script implementation of the SmartGPT prompting system by AI Explained on youtube, see the video here

Prerequisites

• Node.js (node >= 18 to support chatgpt lib) installed on your machine. You can download it from here.
• An OpenAI API key. You can get one by signing up on the OpenAI platform.

Installation

1. Clone this repository or download the files.

2. In the directory containing the smartgpt.js file, run the following command to install the required dependencies:

   npm install

3. Create a copy of the .example.env file in the same directory as smartgpt.js and rename it to .env (literally nothing before the dot).

4. Open the .env file and replace your_api_key_here with your actual OpenAI API key.

Usage

To run the script, execute the following command:

node smartgpt.js "Your prompt goes here" [options]

Outputs are logged to console and the entire conversations are saved in the output folder for later review.

Options

• --model: Specify the model name to use (default: "gpt-4"). Example: --model "gpt-3.5-turbo"

• --numAsks: Specify the number of response options to generate (default: 3). Example: --numAsks 4

• --logging: Enable verbose logging (default: false). Example: --logging

Example

node smartgpt.js "I left 5 clothes out to dry in the sun. It took them 5 hours to dry completely. How long would it take to dry 30 clothes?" --model "gpt-3.5-turbo" --numAsks 4 --logging

This command will use the "gpt-3.5-turbo" model, generate 4 response options, and enable verbose logging.
