I have a pressing need to come up with a household budget and had already decided to try using LLMs to help on this task since learning LLMs/prompt engineering is more fun than just writing a dumb script to do accounts.
Thought i would try this tool - and here's a quick review of the experience:
- the quickstart instructions are very clear and I was up and running on my localhost (a mac - but I think this will work well on windows and linx too)
- the UX is good ... slight wrinkle is that the upload button has a down arrow ... also Ctrl+Shift+/ doesn't work on a mac - took me a while to find the speech bubble icon in the bottom right
- love the import / export, love the chat box - worked well with my existing OpenAI account
So - this is a fantastic concept and a well executed MLP - thanks.
That said - and I highly encourage you to keep going - there are a couple of caveats:
1. The task I set is realworld - "please categorize my bank transactions into household expense groups" - and proved too much for my ChatGPT o1 account - most lines were labelled as 'other', bank charges were labelled 'fuel', etc, etc - so the underlying AI engine is not yet ready for this sadly (I am happy to be corrected if others know the recipe)
2. I wonder if using a tool like this, a set of LLM prompts to set up the query and to comb the response would help to chip away at [1] ... so I suggest that having a way for my config to accumulate my prompts maybe a nice feature.
Please do not take this f/back as negative to your work ... it is more my getting to grips with the AI sweet spot.
