Integrating ChatGPT into Apple Shortcuts

Shortcuts
1

I’ve loved playing with ChatGPT so far, but wanted to start using it in my shortcuts. Luckily they have an API which you can use from within shortcuts. I made an example shortcut which gives you a summary of a book you’ve requested. I use this in my to-read list as extra information.

The shortcut can be embedded within other shortcuts, hence there are two to download:

  1. Download the following shortcuts:
    Downloadlink: SubShortcutGPT
    Download an Example shortcut which uses SubShortcutGPT: SubShortcutGPT Example

  2. Open the SubShortcutGPT-shortcut and fill in your API-key which you can get at OpenAI.
    This is a paid API, but it is quite affordable to use. The shortcut currently is limited to a 1000 tokens, which you can change within the shortcut.

  3. Run the SubShortcut Example-shortcut and see it in action.
    As an example the SubShortcutGPT is set as a book summary generator and will ask for a book Title and Author; in response it will give you a three line summary and copy it to the clipboard.

  4. Now go and duplicate the SubShortcut and change the base prompt and use it in your own shortcut!

I hope it’s useful to someone, and am curious what you might do with it.

This is awesome! Thanks for sharing.

Thanks for this. I think there’s a small mistake in your example. It’s hooked up to run a shortcut called SiriGPT, not SubShortcutGPT.

Hi,
that was the name I was using before wanting to share it, it must’ve stuck when sharing the link; I’ve re-shared the example shortcut. Thanks for trying it out and pointing to this error!
I hope you’ll find it useful :slight_smile:
