  1. Plugin

Web Browsing

The Web Browsing plugin allows BoltAI to read the content of a web page.

How does it work?

A large language model (LLM) does not have the ability to access the Internet. When asked about a recent event or the content of a web page, it might hallucinate or be unable to provide an answer at all.

With the Web Browsing plugin, BoltAI can fetch the content of the web page, parse it, and send it to the LLM as context. This improves the accuracy and usefulness of the LLM.

How to set up the Web Browsing plugin?

No configuration is required for this plugin.

How to use the Web Browsing Plugin?

  1. Start a new chat. Choose an LLM that supports Function Calling (for example GPT-4o)

  2. Enable the Web Browsing plugin

  3. Ask the LLM to process one or more web pages

NOTICE:

Unlike ChatGPT, the Web Search & Web Browsing in BoltAI are 2 different plugins.

  • The Web Search plugin allows BoltAI to search for more information on the Internet using a Search Engine.

  • The Web Browsing plugin allows BoltAI to read the content from a particular webpage

Enable both plugins to replicate the ChatGPT web browsing experience.
