The bot just makes use of:
As posts come in on a news community (via LemmyBot), I grab the url and pass it to smmry, and reply. And that’s it.
Update June 22, 2023: I’ll probably stop using SMMRY as it’s pretty buggy and not usable ~20% of the time. I’m thinking about using a headless browser (like Selenium), grabbing the text, and using GPT to analyze and summarize the text. I need to try this out and guesstimate the pricing for it.
Hi, I see your bot is posting completely offtopic things like this - since it has a lot of replies I’ll leave that one for posterity, but I’m banning it from !worldnews@lemmy.ml now. I’m not banning it from lemmy.ml yet, so (for now, at least) people here who appreciate it can still it its posts in !worldnews@lemmy.world where I see you’re also posting.
