Translated

소개하는 봇

This is a tool that, when you're feeling overwhelmed by the research required before planning a contest, allows you to simply provide a topic and it will search the web and generate a report with cited sources.

3-Line Summary

1) It’s a tool that, when given a topic, uses AI to search the web and generate a report with cited sources. 2) You run the server using Python and access it through a browser. 3) It’s used for research before planning for competitions, and there’s a demo video in the README.

Points to Note

Use this for research before planning a contest, but do not use it to write assignments or reports for others. If AI lists a source, open it yourself to verify it. You'll be charged based on your usage of the OpenAI and Tavily APIs.
