At Fireside BBS we embrace AI as a means to link the retro with the modern. I've created a new OpenAI door that allows me to pass a prompt
to it via an .ini file and it will return the results and display them in a paged format to the user. You'll see it as you log into the BBS. It also has sections in the .ini file to define multiple prompts and you can call them via the command line parameters passed to it. So I can define stuff like..

*Give Me 10 Hot 100 Songs For This Day In History, Sorted By Year
*Give Me 10 World News Articles For This Day In History, Sorted By Year
*Give Me 5 Christian Inspirational Quotes
*Give Me 10 Top Rated TV Shows For This Day In History, Sorted By Year
*Give Me 10 Worldwide Weather Facts For This Day In History, Sort By Year

It's been fun just seeing what I can make it do.
