Release Notes - AI Suggestions

Overview

Linkidex has begun to integrate with AI! For our first feature, Linkidex will suggest categories and tags for a given Link. Click Suggest Categories & Tags, when creating or editing a link and Linkidex will generate suggestions that you can click on to accept. Please note generative AI is a fairly new technology, the suggestions we get may sometimes be silly.

AI Suggestion Example

How It Works

When you ask Linkidex to give you suggestions, we fetch metadata from the given webpage and the page’s contents. We truncate the page, as open AI charges based on tokens and lots of the stuff a webpage has isn’t relevant to generating suggestions.

We send a prompt (something like ‘please summarize a webpage with this information’) along with the page’s metadata and truncated contents to Open AI via their API. Open AI responds to us, and also tells us the number of tokens that API request took. This response should contain suggested categories and tags, which we display to you.

AI Credits

OpenAi charges users based on Tokens. You can loosely think of tokens as words. They charge based on the number of tokens in a prompt, and the number of tokens in the response that they generate. “Prompt” Tokens and “Response” Tokens are not necessarily the same price.

For this release, I have created the concept of Ai Credits on Linkidex. For this initial launch, subscribed users get 100,000 Ai Credits a month. When you ask Linkidex to suggest categories and tags for a given webpage, we will deduct the number of tokens the given request took from your Ai Credits. This prevents any one user from racking up an insane OpenAi bill.

Privacy & Security.

At the time of this writing our AI functionality is powered by OpenAi’s API. Per their website, “Data submitted through the OpenAI API is not used to train OpenAI models or improve OpenAI’s service offering.” We have updated our Privacy Policy and created an Ai Guidelines to reflect this, and will keep those pages updated if / when our AI integrations change.
