    The problem with this is chatgpt is shit at facts. You ask it a question and it might just give you bullshit, and you tell it to provide a citation and it will happily invent one. There’s no easy way to verify whatever it says to you, other than going to the source, which kind of defeats the whole purpose of this exercise.

    The author of the article used the premium subscription of ChatGPT to feed it the rulebook as a pdf. One rulebook at a time. Seems a bit tiresome

    Very nice idea. The only issue I see is that you have to give access to everyone to the uploaded PDF, which in some jurisdictions is a copyright infringement. But that is just a technicality, with better PDF plugin or a way to assign AI a google account, that would not be needed

        I mean that, according to the article, with the way the plugin works right now in order to pass it to ChatGPT you have to make the file accessible to the whole world. From the article it seems that Chat is unable to connect to google cloud with an account that you could limit the access to, the PDF has to be viewable without login

          I must have missed that. I thought its going to be more local also because it only works one pdf at a time. Thanks for clearing that up

    Why’s the text on that site so enormous? I can only see 5 lines at a time on my 17″ screen.
