Today I will introduce you to an AI application editing and development platform——CozeIts biggest advantage is that it canfreeUse ChatGPT4.

What is Coze?

CozeyesByteDanceLaunchedNew GenerationAI Chatbotand a one-stop application editing and development platform, which can be understood asByteDance’s version of GPTsRegardless of whether users have programming skills, they can quickly create personalized chatbots, agents, AI applications and plug-ins through the platform, and embed them into platforms such as Discord, Telegram, Facebook, and WeChat official accounts.

Currently, Coze has two versions, the domestic version and the overseas version. The buttons of the domestic version are connected toSkylark large model, while the overseas version of Coze is connected toOpenAI's ChatGPT4 large model. (Note ~ The overseas version of Coze requires scientific Internet access 🪜). Except for the different application models, the other functions of the two versions are basically the same.

What are the basic functions of Coze?

1. Basic conversation skills:The most basic function of Coze is the ability that many AIs have, the conversation function. The biggest advantage of Coze (overseas version) is that it can use GPT4. In addition, it can also create different types of robots according to different needs to answer questions in specified fields.

2. Rich plugin library:Coze currently integrates more than 60 plug-ins, covering news reading, travel planning, image recognition, data analysis, etc. Developers can freely combine these plug-ins as needed to implement specific business logic, and can also customize plug-in development.

3. Knowledge base and database:Coze has a powerful built-in knowledge base function. Developers can upload and maintain data (such as PDF, TXT, DOCX, web page text, etc.) and feed the data to AI Bot to enable it to understand and respond to user needs more accurately. At the same time, Coze also has database storage capabilities, which enables AI Bot to remember key parameters or content in the conversation permanently to provide more personalized services.

4. Workflow:In addition to the rich set of plug-ins, Coze's second killer feature is the workflow. Workflow can connect simple tasks into complex tasks. The workflow is composed of multiple nodes, each of which is the basic unit of the workflow. If you know how to program, you can use code to create complex functions in the workflow. If you don't know how to program, you can also lay out the workflow through simple operations.

5. Multi-platform integration:Coze's domestic and foreign versions support integration with a variety of social platforms and communication software. The foreign version supports Discord, Telegram, Facebook, etc., and the domestic version supports Doubao, WeChat, Feishu, etc. Developers can embed the created AI Bot into social platforms for more convenient and easy use.

I use Coze to automatically grab news and send it regularly?

In order to help designers grasp the latest AI information and trends, 58UXD's internal AI sharing platform AI Research Institute plans to collect cutting-edge and popular AI information and push it to everyone regularly. However, the cost of collecting, organizing, and typesetting information is relatively high. In order to solve this problem, we thought about whether we could make an AI information robot to help us collect, filter, organize news, and send them regularly. So we set our sights on Coze. We customized the robot bot by writing prompt words according to our needs, adding plug-ins, and setting scheduled tasks, and then completed the workflow of grabbing news and sending them regularly after repeated debugging and modification.

Finally, the arranged news was sent to all UXD designers through the 58 internal platform. The establishment of an automated workflow can enable robots to do tasks with high costs and low difficulty, which ultimately helped us save 80% of work.

Teach you how to customize your own robot with GPT4 in 30 seconds

We have just talked about the case of our customized Coze robot. Next, I will teach you how to customize your own robot.

• step1 Register and log in

First, enter the overseas version of Coze (you need to use the Internet 🪜, if you don’t want to use GPT4, you can also use the domestic version), and register an account.

• Step 2 Create a robot

Click "Create Bot" in the upper left corner to create a bot, enter the bot name, description and avatar, which can be generated directly with Coze. Click "Confirm" to enter the main interface.

The main interface is divided into three parts. Left column: Robot prompt area (here to give the robot personality). Middle column: Robot configuration area (you can configure plugins, workflow, opening remarks, etc.). Right column: Robot debugging area (here you can preview and debug the robot)

• Step 3 Select a large language model and write prompt words

Select a language model.

Write prompt words in Persona&Prompt, enter the robot's role characteristics, skills, reply templates, constraints and other aspects, and give the robot a personality. (For example: you are a planning master who can help users make domestic and international travel plans, search for flights and destination weather, and recommend itineraries for users). You can briefly describe it here, and then click Optimize in the upper right corner. Coze can automatically help developers optimize the personality (this is very convenient, and friends who don't know how to write a personality don't have to worry). Developers can also modify and add personality on the left at any time to optimize the robot's functions.

• Step 4 Add functional plug-ins

You can choose to add different plug-ins according to the robot's settings. For example, if the case is a travel planner robot, you can choose to add plug-ins such as Google search, airfare comparison, and weather query.

• Step 5 Set up the opening remarks

Click "Opening Dialog" to add an opening welcome message. You can also add "Opening Question" to set an opening question.

• Step6 Preview and debug

Once the basic functions are configured, you can preview and debug the robot on the right and adjust the settings based on the preview results.

• step7 release

Click "Publish" in the upper right corner to publish the robot. Coze also supports embedding robots into other social platforms (the domestic version can be embedded into WeChat public accounts), so that users can call robots more flexibly~

The above tutorial only uses the most basic plug-in functions. Interested partners can also try to use other functions, such as Workflows, Knowledge, etc. to complete more complex workflows.

Final Thoughts

The product Coze launched by ByteDance has a Chinese name called "Button", which means that using AI is as easy as buttoning. From the overall experience, whether you know how to code or have a deep understanding of AI, you can easily get started with this product. But if you want to study Coze in depth, you can try functions such as workflow, which can also meet more complex functions. In general, it is an AI application development platform with a low threshold and a high ceiling. Interested friends, go and try it!
