Overview:

Delphi Digital finds interesting content and shares links to it with our customers at: https://members.delphidigital.io/feed?category=reads

We are interested in generating AI summaries of these shared links so that summaries can be shown directly in our portal. We currently use a Telegram Bot to add these links to our site. We’d like to expand upon the current Telegram Bot (this repo) to support generating the summaries.

Prerequisites

• You’ll need your own OpenAI key while testing locally

Task

• Add environment variable for OpenAI key
• Write a new function (in a new module within the repo) that calls OpenAI and generates a 500 character or less summary when provided a URL
• Update the current handleUpdateUrl function (https://github.com/delphidigital/delphi-tg-bots/blob/main/bots/reads.ts#L429) to get the summary and populate the item description field with it if the URL is not a twitter-esque URL (for twitter, we just store the tweet text as the description)
• If the call fails, fall back to the metadata description already in place on the item, send a message to the user that the AI summary call failed
• Incorporate testing infrastructure to run mocha tests and ensure tests are written for any new functionality added during this task. Note that you do not need to add any tests for any of the pre-existing functions, only around new code that you add.

Call outs

• You won’t be able to publish an item locally. This task is just to ensure the item being generated as the proper description
• If helpful, here is an example of AI summarization on a url: https://github.com/georgeck/SummAIze
• Please include a video with your pull request showcasing your code change functioning as expected and calling out any decisions you may have made while working on the feature. (https://www.loom.com/ is one tool that is great for quickly creating videos, but you can use whatever tool you are most comfortable with)
