Show HN: Open Lecture, a ChatGPT Plugin that sources MIT lectures with timestamp

[nohat]

I made Open Lecture, a plugin that gives ChatGPT access to MIT lectures and course materials. It helps Chatgpt give accurate responses and real, timestamped sources.

Demo: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xDJUgDprndk

Installation: In ChatGPT select GPT-4 -- select "Plugins" in the dropdown -- Click "Plugin Store" -- look for "Open Lecture".

Try it out, and let me know if you have any feedback, Thanks!

Do you actually trust this thing to educate your children?

Have you tried using ChatGPT to study? It's pretty incredible for learning, particularly interactive exploration. The point of this plugin is to give ChatGPT access to reliable information to help it be more accurate and informative, as well let it provide real sources so you can verify and continue learning. MIT OpenCourseWare is a great resource (the quality of the teachers is amazing), but it isn't easy to find what you want, and it lacks the interactive component of a real class. I made this to try combining the strengths of both.
