OpenAI Business Idea

Hey Indie Hackers, I have a business problem and I'm surprised no one has came up with a solution.

A GUI tool that can train a OpenAi model

Business Pain

Like many of you, my company is trying to leverage OpenAi/ChatGPT into our startup. We'd like to train OpenAI with our own models. However, it's painful to do this. Because the only way to do it is through the API(which means we need to consume valuable dev resources)

I'd pay a monthly fee if I had some tool that my support team/VA's/Biz Dev/etc.. could create and train a model using an excel like tool. Or the tool could accept an excel sheet, with two columns. (prompt, and desired result).

Then my devs could easily use pre-trained models, without having to worry about actually training the model.

    Have you tried https://www.trudo.ai/? I trained a model with it and it was extremely simple.

    1. 1

      No but this is exactly what I was looking for! Thanks!

    Actually like ChatGPTGreat suggestion! It would certainly be valuable to have an easier tool for training models and integrating OpenAI into a company's workflow. Having an Excel-like interface for model training would save valuable development resources and make the process more accessible to a wider range of team members. I hope that OpenAI considers this feedback and continues to make its services even more user-friendly and efficient for businesses.

    Not sure about your use cases but it's possible to get very far just with prompt engineering.

    I built BatchGPT to help non tech people with situations similar to what you describe. The use of sample input and sample output have a great effect on the final result.

    Feel free to ping me with more specifics and I'll try to help.

    If your looking to fine-tune an OpenAI models you can do that with GPT3, but not ChatGPT. While it doesn't accept a CSV/Excel file, once you have a json file it's a one line command to fine-tune!

    Note, however, that fine-tuned models are more expensive. I'd suggest seeing if you can just craft the prompts differently first rather than fine tuning to save some money!

      Exactly, so someone who will be creating this expensive fine-tuned model. Finding someone to do this won't be big enough of a problem to pay monthly fees. Also, no one trains enough models to buy a monthly subscription.

      1. 1

        I wonder if instead of fine tuning you can instead either use a model or ChatGPT itself to generate a prompt that gets you from input to output - that would be cheap!

        1. 1

          Yeah, but I think GPT is expensive at scale anyways, either you make a deeptech solution or even a simple one. Open source models are the way.

          1. 2

            Totally agree on price at scale and open source models being the way!

    No Code ChatGPT for the win! I'd pay too
