Vision
As GPT evolves into a productivity and research assistant, I envision a paradigm shift from prompt engineering to prompt programming — where prompts can generate, act, and deliver results autonomously. I’m proposing three core ideas that could make GPT more action-oriented and seamlessly integrated into our professional lives.
1. GPT → Cloud Sync (Auto Save to User’s Cloud)
Idea: Push generated content (docs, sheets, PDFs, presentations, code) automatically to the user’s Google Drive, Dropbox, or OneDrive.
Use Cases:
• Researchers saving daily notes or thesis drafts
• Office workers auto-saving reports to team folders
• Students organizing GPT-generated study material
2. GPT ↔ Git Integration
Idea: Allow GPT to commit/push code or markdown to a Git repo with version control – including commit messages, branching, and structured logs.
Use Cases:
• Developers saving iterations of generated code
• Documenting workflows, changelogs, README.md
• Personal knowledge management with Git-based tools (like Obsidian, Notion)
3. GPT AutoMailer (Email + Attachments + Draft Scheduling)
Idea: GPT drafts and auto-sends emails with generated content as attachments or inline messages, including scheduling and edits.
Use Cases:
• Status updates sent every evening
• Research reports shared with collaborators
• Auto-summary of logs, assignments, or progress reports
Why This Matters
These features move GPT from a chat-only interface to a task-completing agent — reducing human friction, increasing automation, and maximizing the power of natural language interfaces.
This isn’t just prompt engineering — it’s prompt programming.
Implementation (Optional APIs & Integrations)
• OAuth & Drive API / Dropbox API / OneDrive Graph API
• GitHub/GitLab CLI API bindings
• Gmail / Outlook API (SendMail + Draft support)
Openness to Collaboration
I’d be happy to collaborate or contribute if OpenAI or the community wants to take this forward. This is just Set 1 — there are more ideas around Prompt Agents, GPT OS, and automation pipelines.
