A small-time indie hacker with big dreams. Built @blanqio for marketers and small businesses. Love to read books and drink tea. If you need help, DM me.

In the last 2 weeks, I have spent a considerable amount of time understanding ChatGPT and the new ecosystem that is evolving around it.

Here's what I learned 🧵

Uses Golang for backend, NuxJs and Bootstrap 5 for frontend.

My weekend experiment 🧪.

I built this site entirely with ChatGPT.

All tools listed there are also built using ChatGPT.

I did not write even a single line of code myself.

Just nudged the AI with proper prompts.

@bryceroars Nice, does outlook let you share via a link?

[Shashank @byteblanq]

This may be a stupid and unnecessary idea but I was free and it took me 10 mins to create this mockup.

" Share your Google calendar schedule with others"

- Shareable link.
- Updates when you update Google Calendar
- Can have an expiry, password protection etc

Wdyt?

[Shashank @byteblanq]

Everything has become a Saas. There was once a time when there were decent free tools that did not require an account or payment.

[Shashank @byteblanq]

Wow, there is no decent app to unroll a Twitter thread that doesn't ask for a signup.

Giving up after 20 min search.

Time to build one.

[Shashank @byteblanq]

If you planning to start a business around content.

Don't.

Regarding ChatGPT, one area that will soon emerge is "saving or optimising tokens" because let's face it - nobody likes to spend more money.

You will soon see:
1. Prompt assistance
2. Token analytics and usage pattern

[Shashank @byteblanq]

As much as it sucks for the founder - and I feel bad for him - this is a wise decision by Twitter.

The platform was gamed and automated to a point that a user had to rarely log into his/her Twitter account.

Auto retweets, tweet writing suggestions etc are features of bots.

Tweet Hunter has been banned from Twitter.

5,426 Twitter power users are affected.

No warning, no email, nada.

We have no idea why.

From the very beginning, we have worked with the Twitter team to make sure Tweet Hunter is compliant with all Twitter rules.

To comply, we added constrains, informed users about Twitter ToS and even removed features entirely.

When Twitter rolled out the new Enterprise pricing, we applied on day 1.

No news.

Today we discover our app has been banned... affecting incredibly talented creators, indie-makers and startup founders from all around the world.

@elonmusk / @TwitterDev: we don't understand. Is it an honest mistake?

Please, help us navigate this as we have no idea what to do.

👋 Asking you Twitter friends, can you help us reaching them by retweeting this?

Thank you!

Let's save @TweetHunterIO

Spent a couple of hours and created a ChatGPT UI clone using Open AI APIs.

Just as an experiment.

API docs are clear but the internet lacks sufficient examples and answers to questions.

Will the rise in AI, mean we humans will have to move to physical labour. I believe so. If your job depends on working on a laptop, you are at risk.

AI will not even spare the creative field. In fact, it is more at risk.
