Open AI for Coda

Hi! I’m Spencer, a software engineer and creative technologist. I care about making tools that empower people’s creative agency, automate busy work, and imagine alternative futures. I work at Coda on our Pack ecosystem but built this in my spare time while tinkering on how to make AI more accessible. I’m so excited to share the OpenAI Pack for Coda with the Product Hunt community. I designed this Pack so anyone can streamline and augment their professional and personal lives using GPT-3 and DALL-E. Over the past few months, I’ve been blown away by the capabilities the community has demonstrated with GPT-3 and DALL-E. But as mind expanding and powerful as they are, these possibilities have often required access to tools that are expensive, require in-depth technical expertise, or don’t integrate into your existing tools and workflows. I wanted to see how this power could be opened to everyone—not just engineers and AI enthusiasts—by bringing OpenAI into an endlessly customizable tool like Coda. So when OpenAI released its GPT-3 and DALL-E APIs, I set out to create an environment where anyone could leverage this capability for their own and team’s needs and have it work seamlessly with their existing everyday data and services. The result is this OpenAI Pack for Coda. It provides building blocks for you to leverage GPT-3 and DALL-E with your data and your team the way you want. Here’s a few ways you can use the OpenAI Pack to automate busywork and unlock your creativity: - Summarize raw meeting notes, long Slack threads, and Zoom transcripts into a tl;dr and automatically send it out in an email. - Brainstorm with your team and auto-generate new ideas to riff on the most popular ideas. - Transform ideas into tweets and post from a single place. - Fill out a story Mad Libs to imagine a story premise and generate a corresponding image. - Make your own templates using custom prompts. This is only the beginning of what you can do, which is why I’m thrilled to share that all the source code is open source and available under the MIT License (https://github.com/coda/openai-pack) Get started today with the pack and our starter template playground (https://coda.io/@coda/openai-for...). I’m excited to see where the community takes this—let me know how you’d use it in the comments below :)

Nice work!

I’m happy to share the OpenAI Pack for Coda with the PH community. By completing time-consuming but crucial tasks, AI can make work more fulfilling for professionals across a wide range of industries. AI can free people up to spend more time and attention on strategic and creative decision-making that require deep thought. As an investor and friend to both the OpenAI and Coda teams, I’m excited by how this Pack makes artificial intelligence even more accessible. From the familiar starting point of a simple doc, you can use GPT-3 and DALL-E to automate repetitive tasks, so you can bring your ideas to life faster. Use GPT-3 to generate long-form content from a prompt. Illustrate your ideas with DALL-E. With tools like the OpenAI Pack for Coda, I believe we’re taking big steps toward putting the power of AI into the hands of every professional. So check out the Pack, create your own AI-powered templates, and let me know what you think in the comments below.
