Answer Questions with OpenAI
Our first AI mod is called "Answer Questions with OpenAI." This mod is awesome because it allows you to highlight any question and then ask the AI to generate an answer for it that you can then review and customize before posting.
All you have to do is right click the question text and click "Answer the question with OpenAI." In just a few seconds, the AI will provide an answer in a sidebar. You can customize the prompt if needed, and you can activate this mod with just one click. No need to set up your own OpenAI or ChatGPT account.
Ask AI To Review Text and Rewrite It
Another favorite mod is called "AI Rate and Fix Response". This mod helps you improve your text responses based on your brand guidelines (e.g., nice, friendly, positive, etc.) by giving you a score and a suggested rewrite to be more on brand. All you need to do is right click the text you want to evaluate and click "Score Highlighted Response with AI." Then, copy the AI's suggestion to your clipboard and paste it where needed.
Summarize Text With AI
In this fast-paced world, there's always way too much to read and too little. Our "Summarize Selected Text" mod makes it easy for you to quickly digest information by providing a summary of any text you select. To use this mod, highlight the text on any webapge, right click, and choose "Summarize Selected Text." Within a few seconds, you'll receive a brief, easy-to-understand summary of the content in a sidebar panel.
Translate Text To Another Language with AI
The "Language Translation" mod quickly translates text into different languages. All you have to do is highlight the text, right click, and choose "Translate Language." You will then see a list of available languages to choose from in the sidebar. After selecting your desired language, your text will be translated automatically.
See OpenAI Results When You Search in Google
Our final mod shows OpenAI results with your Google searches. Every time you search something in Google, you will see PixieBrix and OpenAI working together to provide a succinct answer alongside the other search results. For instance, if you search "who was the first woman on the moon?", the AI will answer your question directly on the search results page without requiring you to click into any results.
