Usage

gpt

To bring up the gpt popup, use the keyboard shortcut cmd+g, or select gpt from the block or slash menu.

If you are currently in a block, the plugin will use the text in the block as input to the prompt.

You can click and drag or shift+click to select multiple blocks to use as input to the prompt.

If you are not in a block, the plugin won't add any additional input text to your prompt, and will append the results of the prompt to the bottom of the page.

After selecting the prompt and generating a response, a preview of the response will be shown in the popup. You can click the Insert button or press the enter key to insert the response into the page.

You can also click the Replace button to replace the selected block with the response.

If you don't like the response, you can click the Regenerate button to generate a new response.

Custom prompts

After you open the popup, you can write any text you want to use as the prompt.

For example you can write create flashcards based on the following text: and the plugin will generate flashcards for you to study:

Built-in prompt templates

There are a number of built in prompt templates that you can use to generate text. These are useful for generating outlines, summaries, and other tasks.

User prompt templates

You can also create your own custom prompt templates. To do this, you create a block with the prompt-template:: property. The template will be added to the list of templates in the gpt popup.

The prompt-template:: property is the name of the prompt template.

In a block nested underneath the template block, create a code block in triple backticks with the language set to prompt. The text in the code block will be used as the prompt. Make sure the code block is in its own block indented underneath the template block.

For example, you can create a template like this:

- # Student Teacher Dialog
  prompt-template:: Student Teacher Dialog
	- ```prompt
	    Rewrite text as a dialog between a teacher and a student:
	  ```

Student teacher dialog

Australian Accent

Replace

To replace the selected block with the generated text, click the Replace button.

Regenerate

If you don't like the output of the prompt, you can click the Regenerate button to generate a new response. Sometimes the first response is not the best, but the second or third response can be better.

gpt-block

Type /gpt-block in a block or select gpt-block from the block menu.

gpt-block will send the block to OpenAI's GPT-3 API and append the response underneath the block.

Ask questions

gpt-page

Type /gpt-page in a block or select gpt-page from the block menu.

gpt-page will send the entire page to OpenAI's GPT-3 API and append the response to the bottom of the page.

Whisper speech to text transcription

Transcribe audio files to text using the Whisper API.

Type /whisper in a block or select whisper from the block menu.

Supported formats are: m4a, mp3, mp4, mpeg, mpga, wav, webm

Note, that the Logseq mobile app audio recorder uses .aac which is not supported by Whisper. I recommend using a separate audio recorder app to record audio files and then uploading them to Logseq. For example, I use the Voice Memos app on iOS and share that file to the Logseq mobile app.

dalle

Generate images with DALL-E

Type /dalle in a block or select dalle from the block menu.

This will generate an image using the DALL-E model, save the image to the assets folder, and insert the image into the block.

Select Multiple Blocks

You can click and drag or shift+click to select multiple blocks to use as input to the prompt.

ChatGPT Guidance

You can adjust the chatPrompt setting to adjust how ChatGPT should respond to your input. By default, the setting is set to Do not refer to yourself in your answers. Do not say as an AI language model... to prevent the model from including unnecessary text in the response.

You can add guidance such as "respond in chinese" or "respond in spanish" to the prompt to get the model to respond in a different language.

This setting is only used when the model is set to gpt-3.5-turbo.

For people who uses reverse-proxy server to use OpenAI service ,you can set the chatCompletionEndpoint to your reverse-proxy endpoint , the default configuration for this is http://api.openai.com/v1.

WARNING: To use those reverse-proxy endpoints , you should always keep your data and privacy safe !!!

Inject Prefix

Allows you to inject a prefix into the GPT-3 output before it is inserted into the block, such as a [[gpt3]] tag or markdown formatting like > for a blockquote. This is useful for identifying blocks that were generated by GPT-3. Use the Inject Prefix options in the setting to set the prefix. You can add a space or \n newline to separate the prefix from the generated text.

FAQ

What is GPT-3 and OpenAI, and how does it work?

See this article for a good overview.

Errors

OpenAI Quota Reached

Your free trial is over, or you've run out of tokens. You can refill your tokens here.

OpenAI Rate Limited

OpenAI has limits on how often you can call them. If you get this error, you'll need to wait a bit before trying again. See this article for more info on the rate limits. You can call it faster if you have a paid account.

Model not available

You may have mistyped the model name, or need to generate a new API key, if you're upgrading to a paid account from a free account, or using a beta model that is not available to the public.

Refused to set unsafe header "User Agent"

This error doesn't cause any issues besides the error message in the console. It's a known issue with the OpenAI API. See this issue for more details. I'm working on a PR to their library to support browser usage. Ignore this error for now.

Debugging

]

• Open the developer tools (Menu -> View -> Toggle Developer tools)

• Check the console logs for error messages.

• See if you can figure out the error on your own. Maybe you had a network issue if it says something like "timed out." Sometimes the OpenAI API has issues. You also have a limited number of tokens, so you may run out and need to refill.

• If you can't figure it out based on the error message and it doesn't go away. Make an issue on GitHub.
