Leading artificial intelligence (AI) platform Poe has announced the launch of a new feature that makes it easier for anyone to create and interact with their own chatbots. With simple text prompts and the power of large language models (LLMs) that are already in the system, users can easily create their own AI with just a few words.
This innovative feature has been rolled out to all Poe users and would allow anybody to write a prompt and pick a base which is either Claude Instant or ChatGPT. Both of these options are popular general-purpose conversation systems. After generating a bot, the user can customize it and share it with others.
Poe founder Adam D’Angelo has stated the importance of this feature, praising how it can unlock valuable potential from LGMs. For the purpose of demonstration, Poe has released several sample bots such as Piratebot, Roastmaster, and Chefbot for users to try out.
The user-friendly platform of Poe has been widely recognized for its ability to provide conversational AI solutions across devices and platforms. On top of that, there are unique URLs for each bot which increase its accessibility due to it being easy to share. For example, Chefbot has a link of poe.com/chefbot. The company also covers the fee for using large language models, making it revenue-free to the user.
Last month, there was an avalanche of product launches from OpenAI, Anthropic, Microsoft, and Google which had presented the users with more personalized and immersive chatbot experiences. With this, companies such as Character.AI, have emerged and attracted investors to reach a $1 billion dollar valuation. On one hand, Character.AI focus on generating chatbots with different personalities such as famous personalities, while on the other hand, Poe provides an API to support more advanced development and hosting which allows users to host a bot from their server.
To conclude, the new features of Poe brings ease and convenience for people to create their own bots with just a few words. Not only is this feature a great way for users to explore the potentials of LGMs and benefit from language models, but it also makes it easier for developers to start up their own AI-telebot business without spending a large amount of money.
