   Bad work

   Chatbase Evaluation: Definitely, after many hours of uploading documents that I have been refining, it continues to respond with absurd or incorrect answers, and sometimes even claims to have no information when it had answered correctly just 10 minutes before. A significant waste of time and money.

   It is a nice mini-blog, it's for free and such but

   As a mini-blog, it is a nice alternative for Medium to publish and share information about programming.

   However, the community and the organization are biased toward social justice (and they are open to it). You can read its Code of Conduct, it is so vague and politically leads (I prefer a term of service because it defines fair rules for everybody). So it alienates developers that we don't care about politics in pro of people that want to talk about any other topic such as sexuality, how women are unprivileged, and such. It even mandates to use inclusive language. Good grief.

   My main complaint is the quality of the community. It is not StackOverflow (so we don't want to ask for an answer here), and most of the top topics are clickbait, such as "how to become a rockstar developer in ... days", "100 tips to become a better programmer" (and it doesn't even talk about programming).

   Technically this "mini blog" site allows us to use markdown, and it is okay. However, the whole experience is really basic. Even the template is ugly.

   🏁 Competitors: Medium

   👍 Pros:    Free

   👎 Cons:    Social justice|Basic features|Quality of content

  I know there are several services out there such as chatbase.co (https://www.chatbase.co/) What service do you use? Source: about 2 years ago

• What GPT/AI apps do you actually use? I'll share my favorites

  Chatbase.co is a web app where you can embed pdf-s and then ask anything about it. It's an awesome tool to create questions for my college lecture notes and find answers in lengthy documents to easy questions (e.g.: How many times can I take an exam for free?). There is a free version which is enough most of the time for these kinds of use cases. Source: about 2 years ago

  Since 2022, source-available models have been gaining popularity, especially at first with BLOOM and LLaMA, though both have restrictions on the field of use. Mistral AI's models Mistral 7B and Mixtral 8x7b have the more permissive Apache License. In January 2025, DeepSeek released DeepSeek R1, a 671-billion-parameter open-weight model that performs comparably to OpenAI o1 but at a much lower cost. Since 2023,... - Source: dev.to / 1 day ago
