🤔 But Why?

During my time at a company, I got access to a ChatGPT (OpenAI) account, and I quickly realized that people asked some of the most ridiculous, absurd questions. Sure, it was fun to joke about them at first, but then I started thinking—what if I could collect all these questions and conversations for something bigger?

Imagine this: people unknowingly reveal a lot through casual conversation. They expose not just their thought processes, but their knowledge gaps, insecurities, and even personal information through casual chats. What if you could collect and use that information?

Here’s the "evil" plan: ChatCollector allows you to gather all these conversations, archive them, and over time, create a massive knowledge repository that you control. Maybe today it’s just silly questions about ChatGPT, but tomorrow? It could be strategic leverage—not just in patterns of behavior, but in the ridiculous questions people ask or the personal details they casually reveal. By collecting these conversations, you build a resource that others don’t even realize exists. Over time, this hidden knowledge becomes your advantage, allowing you to influence their decisions when the time is right.

Information is power, and ChatCollector gives you the power to harness it. Those bizarre, trivial conversations might not seem useful right now, but every data point collected can be turned into influence. You’ll know what people are curious about, where their blind spots are, and how they tick.

So, while others laugh at the absurdity, you'll be quietly building your empire—one conversation at a time. And who knows? The next big opportunity might be hidden in a question no one else bothered to take seriously. Information is money, and you're sitting on a goldmine.

But of course, you can use this power for good! You could use ChatCollector to improve collaboration, solve recurring issues, or even create a better understanding between teams. It’s all about how you want to play it!

⚠️ Important

I've turned off the extraction workflow in this repo to keep things tidy and avoid unnecessary content. But don’t worry—there are a few sample conversations on the GitHub Pages site to show you how it works! If you want to set it up yourself, just follow the steps and use the template—it’s super easy.
