Hi Tom,

I just started getting this message when I try to get into Zoot.

It happened after Win10 asked me to restart after an update.

The version on my laptop is working fine, FYI.

The same here.  Happened after a Window 10 update this morning.

Tom has mentioned the 9.0 but write he was waiting for some final touches.

I went ahead and gladly ordered 9.0 (I've been using Zoot almost daily for at least two decades for about a penny a day!)

I received a new license key.  I am up and running and my life is now back in order.

Although it is also asking me to reboot for an update.

Roy,

How did you order? From the website?

NM, I went to the website and ordered... 3 yrs for $60 is a steal.

PrivateGPT, which is free and open source, means having your own private interface to an AI database that uses your documents, all of which you control, no one else has access to them. You use it just like ChatGPT to make inquiries, but it processes your documents – not something from the outside - to answer your prompts.

 

There are some tutorials on Youtube for installing PrivateGPT on a desktop. Good one here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=A3F5riM5BNE

           

Tom, I am wondering if Zoot users can pump all their Zoot files into PrivateGPT after setting it up on their desktop? Will PrivateGPT be able to use Zoot documents to answer one’s questions and prompts? If not, as yet, can you devise a way to enable this for Zoot users? Would be phenomenally cool if users could run PrivateGPT WITHIN Zoot!!! Answers to prompts can in turn be included in one’s Zoot database.

 

What do you think?

Have you installed PrivateGPT on your desktop?  My understanding is that it is quite slow even if you have a powerful GPU.
 
In any case, I'm certainly keeping an eye on all of this.  I'm interested in the Windows Copilot.  I'm hoping Microsoft won't screw that up.  Hopefully it's not the same team that worked on Windows search and botched that for 30 years. 🙂  We'll have more on that in a couple of months. 
 
My current focus is on Prompt Engineering, which I think is quite important, and which is very much in Zoot's wheelhouse.

Ok, I'll bite. What is "prompt engineering"?

If you want to jump right in, open bard.google.com in your browser, and then paste the following into the query box:
 

 
Act as an expert Prompt Engineer.

Your goal is to help me craft the best possible AI Prompt for my needs.

The prompt will be used by you to achieve the best results for my goals and objectives.

Use the following process:

1. Ask me what the prompt should be about. I will provide my answer, but we will need to improve it through continual iterations by going through the next steps.

2. Based on my input, you will generate the following:

- Suggestions on how the prompt might be improved.
- Questions that might improve the prompt.

3. We will continue this iterative process, with me providing additional information to you. After each iteration, you will update the prompt until the perfect prompt is achieved.

Here is my initial prompt: {ENTER YOUR QUESTION}
