ChatGPT is a chatbot, a cheat detector, a radio amateur, a book analyzer, and now it adds “expert in Twitter profiles”... or something like that. The Spanish project Abbrevia.me can share a summarized version of any Twitter account, explaining the characteristics its user conveys, its main objectives, and other interesting details.
“The first impression is what counts.” Many repeat that phrase as if it were a mantra, and it seems especially true in social networks, where (almost) everyone pretends to be something they are not. If you decide to follow someone on Twitter, it’s likely an impulse at first, and over time you’ll find out whether that profile deserves your attention or not... but now there is another way, and as you can imagine, it involves ChatGPT. From the creators of “there’s an app for that” comes “you can use ChatGPT for that”, and its latest example is Abbrevia.me, a project by Jordi Martí, from the Escapes Online portal.
How to get the summary of a Twitter account with Abbrevia.me
Fortunately, Abbrevia.me is very easy to use: all we have to do is enter the name of the Twitter profile to process (without the @) and choose the language. Within seconds, ChatGPT reads the tweets and finally presents its analysis. Some users report certain differences between the descriptions in Spanish and English, but I imagine that is more due to the nature of ChatGPT than a bug.
One thing is certain: Abbrevia.me has started to feel the pressure. I encountered several “too many requests” errors during my tests, which suggests that a large number of users are hammering the service. As if that weren’t enough, maintaining Abbrevia.me is not free. Although OpenAI’s prices for API access are reasonable (we’re talking about tenths of a cent per request), the cost quickly adds up. Now, I imagine that if in the future ChatGPT connects to the Web, the chatbot will be able to offer a similar service without problems, but until that happens, Abbrevia.me has a place, and it is growing.
