ChatGPT - openai.com/index/chatgpt/
- ChatGPT self evaluation: "ChatGPT is an advanced AI language model developed by OpenAI, capable of generating human-like text for tasks like answering questions, creative writing, and coding assistance. Its strengths include versatility, natural language generation, customizability, efficiency, and accessibility. However, it has limitations, such as occasional inaccuracies, overconfidence in incorrect answers, ethical concerns, reliance on clear input, and a lack of deep understanding. While highly useful, it requires critical engagement to use effectively."
ChatPDF - www.chatpdf.com
- ChatPDF is an AI-powered tool that allows users to "chat" with a PDF document, essentially asking questions and receiving summaries or specific information directly from the text
- review: https://goldpenguin.org/blog/chatpdf-review-is-it-still-worth-trying/ (for-profit company). Excerpt: "ChatPDF is an AI-powered software that allows you to upload PDF files as its main knowledge base. It’s primarily for students who need to digest large PDF files of science journals and previous literature... While it definitely sources the answer from the PDF, it doesn’t just copy-then-paste the information from your input as its response. Instead, it analyzes the information provided from the PDF and uses that as its context to give a completely new answer... Compared to other LLMs that enable you to upload PDF files like ChatGPT, ChatPDF is missing a lot more features that makes the application more accessible and flexible. And compared to Claude, ChatPDF’s free version is far more limiting and less accurate."
