What can the Link Reader ChatGPT Plugin do?
The Link Reader ChatGPT Plugin is a third-party application that can be integrated with the GPT language model to enable it to read the content of various types of links. This plugin is designed to extract the information from different types of links such as web pages, PDF files, PPT presentations, images, Word documents, and other types of documents.
Once installed and enabled, the Link Reader ChatGPT Plugin can be used to automatically extract the relevant information from a given link and provide a summary of the content to the user.
This can be especially useful in situations where the user needs to quickly review the content of a link without having to read through the entire document.
For instance, if a user receives a link to a lengthy research paper, they can simply ask the Link Reader ChatGPT Plugin with a natural language command to extract the content.
The plugin will then read through the document and provide a summary of the main points, allowing the user to quickly grasp the key ideas without having to read through the entire paper.
The Link Reader ChatGPT Plugin can also be used to extract specific information from a link. For example, if the link leads to a product page, the plugin can be used to extract the product name, price, and other relevant details.

Here are some example prompts you could use with the Link Reader ChatGPT plugin:

4. “Could you analyze the content of this report and provide key insights?” followed by the URL of the report.
5. “Can you explain the slides in this PowerPoint presentation?” followed by the URL of the presentation.
6. “Could you translate the text on this webpage?” followed by the URL of the webpage in a foreign language.
7. “Can you help me gather information from this article for my research?” followed by the URL of the article.

9. “Can you help me understand the content of this document?” followed by the URL of the document.
