Introducing Clippy by FireCube: Your AI-Powered Windows Copilot for a Fun and Productive Desktop Experience
2023-07-05 05:01:09
“Clippy by FireCube” v0.1 Preview “Windows Copilot”, which incorporates AI chat of “Bing” into the desktop sidebar, is a function that makes you feel the future, but some people may feel that it is too practical and a bit dull Isn’t it? It would be nice to have a slightly more approachable solution like “Kyle-kun GPT” that I introduced earlier. Therefore, I would like to recommend “Clippy by FireCube”. The app resides on your desktop and lets you interact with your former “office assistant,” Clippy. If the skin function is installed eventually, it will be fun to replace it with other characters such as “Kyle” (there are plans to add more characters). “Clippy by FireCube” is an open source project (license unknown) hosted on “GitHub” and can be downloaded for free from the “Microsoft Store”. When you start it, Clipper appears in the lower right corner of the desktop, and when you click it, a chat screen appears. If you want Clipper to always be in the foreground, you can use the pin pin function at the bottom left of the chat screen. You can open and close the chat screen by clicking Clipper Mr. Clipper’s brain is equivalent to OpenAI’s “GPT 3.5” at the time of writing. When using it, you need to register a payment method (credit card) with OpenAI and obtain an API key. If you just want to chat lightly, the free tier will be plenty of fun. I hope that in the future it will be able to handle tasks like launching apps. Clipper’s brain is equivalent to “GPT 3.5”. Register a payment method that requires you to obtain an OpenAI API key when you use it for the first time, and obtain an API key.You can also call Clipper by using the[Windows]+[Shift]+[C]keys, but this keyboard shortcut Note that the key overlaps with the color picker function of “PowerToys”. “Clippy by FireCube” does not yet have a keyboard shortcut key customization function, so it is better to deal with it on the “PowerToys” side. “Clippy by FireCube” setting screen
