We just released Short Circuit 3.0, our biggest upgrade to date. Since day 1 people have asked us for GPT-4 support and we listened, but we went the extra mile.
Say hello to Personalities. Now every Side Chat can have it's own personality, letting you fine tune the persona, creativity, and model.
What does this mean? Imagine a Side Chat where you're talking to a SwiftUI expert, another with a math tutor, and a third with a French tour guide.
All of that and more is possible in 3 easy steps.
1. Click the new fancy Conversation Settings View button.
2. Choose from one of the preselected personalities like D&D Dungeon Master, Python Pro, and Master Chef, or even create your custom personality providing your own description.
3. Hit Save, and now Shorty will begin responding with that personality, in our case a Swift expert.
And we also have one often asked for improvement, you can *finally* rename conversations. A lot of people are excited for that one, sorry it took a bit. 😅
A special thank you to @dlx and @jpm for going above and beyond as open source maintainers. They not only were able to help us figure out some bugs that we were running into using their libraries (our problems not theirs), but they actually made the fixes in the Short Circuit codebase to help us ship Short Circuit 3.0. We're very grateful for their help and contributions, they are the epitome of great open source maintainers.
