How to Make Siri Actually Useful with Chad GPT

In this article, I will guide You through the process of making Siri more useful by connecting it to Chad GPT. Chad GPT is a powerful language model developed by OpenAI, and with the help of the Siri shortcut, you can use voice commands to ask Chad GPT any question you want. This tutorial will provide step-by-step instructions on how to set up the Siri shortcut with OpenAI, customize the shortcut to your preferences, and use it efficiently on your iPhone or MacBook.

1. Introduction

Siri, Apple's virtual assistant, has become an integral part of daily life for many iPhone users. However, it can often be limited in functionality and not always provide the answers we Seek. By integrating Chad GPT, an advanced language model, with the Siri shortcut, we can unlock the full potential of Siri and have access to a wealth of information simply by using our voice.

2. Prerequisites

Before we dive into the setup process, there are a couple of prerequisites you need to fulfill:

- Shortcuts App

The Shortcuts app is a powerful automation tool developed by Apple. You can download it for free from the Apple App Store and install it on both your iPhone and Mac. This app will serve as the platform for creating and configuring the Siri shortcut.

- OpenAI API Key

To connect Chad GPT with the Siri shortcut, you will need an OpenAI API Key. Signing up for an API key is free and easy. Simply visit platform.openai.com/account/APIKeys and sign in using your Gmail account or a username and password. OpenAI provides five dollars worth of free credits by default, which is sufficient for several hundred questions. Afterward, usage is billed accordingly.

3. Setting Up Siri Shortcut with OpenAI

Now that we have the necessary prerequisites, let's proceed with setting up the Siri shortcut using OpenAI.

- Generating API Key

To access the OpenAI API, you need to generate an API key. Follow these steps:

1. Visit platform.openai.com/account/APIKeys.
2. It may prompt you to enter a credit card; keep in mind that this is a pay-as-you-go system.
3. Click on "Create New Secret Key" to generate an API key.
4. In the dialog box that appears, give the key a name, such as "Siri Shortcut," and click "Create Secret Key."
5. Copy the generated API key starting with "SK." This key acts as a password, so keep it secure and do not share it with anyone.

- Configuring Siri Shortcut

Now that we have the API key, let's configure the Siri shortcut to connect with Chad GPT.

1. Click on the iCloud link provided in the description to open the shortcut in the Shortcuts app.
2. It will prompt you to configure the API key. Paste the OpenAI API key you generated in the previous step into the designated box.
3. Click "Next" to proceed to the next step.
4. Select the model you want to use, either GPT3, GPT3.5, or GPT4. GPT4 generally provides the best responses but may be slower than the other models. You can choose GPT3.5 for faster responses or if you want to save money.
5. Optionally, you can customize the dialogue and voice used by Chad GPT. This allows you to tailor the responses to your preferences, language, and tone. You can also add a touch of sarcasm if you'd like.
6. Continue to the next dialog box and customize the text that Siri Speaks while processing your request.
7. Once the setup is complete, simply say "Hey Siri, do the thing" to activate the Siri shortcut and start the conversation with Chad GPT.

4. Customizing the Siri Shortcut

One of the advantages of the Siri shortcut is its flexibility and customization options. Let's explore how you can personalize the Siri shortcut to your liking.

- Choosing the Model

By default, the Siri shortcut uses the GPT4 model, which offers the most accurate responses. However, if you prefer faster responses or want to save on costs, you can switch to the GPT3 or GPT3.5 models. Consider your requirements and choose the model accordingly.

- Editing the Dialogue

The dialogue used by Chad GPT can be customized to suit your style. You can change the default prompt from "What's up, human?" to something more personalized, such as "Hello, how can I help?" Additionally, the language and voice used for the spoken responses can also be modified to enhance the user experience.

5. Using the Siri Shortcut

Now that we have our Siri shortcut set up and customized, let's learn how to effectively use it to get the most out of Siri and Chad GPT.

- Activating the Shortcut

To activate the Siri shortcut, simply say "Hey Siri, do the thing" or any other phrase you customized during the setup process. This will initiate the processing and enable you to ask questions.

- Asking Questions

Once the Siri shortcut is activated, Siri will prompt you to speak your question. You can ask any question you want, and Chad GPT will provide a response within a few seconds. The conversation is threaded, allowing you to ask follow-up questions or refine your queries up to five times.

- Refining the Conversation

If you want to refine your conversation or ask a follow-up question, simply provide the additional information or rephrase your query. Chad GPT will intelligently maintain the Context and respond accordingly. This feature allows for a more dynamic and interactive conversation with the language model.

6. Using the Shortcut on Different Devices

The Siri shortcut can be used not only on your iPhone but also on your MacBook. Follow the instructions below to set it up on different devices.

- iPhone

Setting up the Siri shortcut on your iPhone is as simple as installing the Shortcuts app and following the steps outlined in this article. Once configured, you can utilize the Siri shortcut on your iPhone with ease.

- MacBook

To use the Siri shortcut on your MacBook, you need to install the Shortcuts app from the Apple App Store. Once installed, open the shortcut and follow the same setup process as described earlier. You can now access the Siri shortcut on your MacBook as well.

7. Adjusting Model Speed and Accuracy

Depending on your preferences and requirements, you may need to adjust the model speed and accuracy. GPT4 provides the most accurate responses but may take longer to process. On the other HAND, GPT3 or GPT3.5 offer faster responses at the expense of some accuracy. Consider your priorities and make the necessary adjustments to ensure optimal performance.
