Auto-GPT is an experimental open-source app that allows you to run GPT-4 in a loop. The answers become new prompts, AutoGPT tries to push the goal you’ve defined for it. In the past weeks we have seen amazing AutoGPT usecases and in this text I’m going to show you them, as well as explain how you can install Auto-GPT on your computer.
Crazy AutoGPT use cases
You can think about AutoGPT as being GPT-4 with access to the internet. This thread shows it well:

All in all, AutoGPT is an awesome tool for:

Of course, this is only the beginning. We’re yet to see the true power of AutoGPT and ChatGPT in upcoming months, while more and more people come up with cool stuff they build.
Now if you want to play yourself with AutoGPT.
