Preferred Mainstream Tech Giants
What I use most often daily:
One is the web version of ChatGPT. One is the client version of Codex.
GPT is used for thinking and information organization.
Codex and Cursor are used for writing code, such as developing mobile apps and building my own web utility sites.
Gemini
Recently, what my mobile app uses most is the Gemini API, to translate my Markdown articles.
Secondly, I’ve also started using Gemini integrated into the Chrome browser to generate accompanying images for blog posts.
And to analyze the website I currently have open, analyzing and organizing data.
For example, finding content relevant to my graphics card among dozens of videos on a certain video blogger’s homepage.
I would have to search manually for half an hour, and it wouldn’t be accurate, but Gemini reads the current webpage and gives a relatively accurate answer in a few seconds.
I can also have it organize the information into tables or images, etc., to make it more user-friendly.
Quota Limits
Of course, all of the above have free usage limits.
Among them, the web versions of ChatGPT and Gemini can be used continuously.
Codex and Cursor run out once the free quota is used up.
The Gemini API also runs out once the free quota is used up, but most people won’t exhaust it.
Relay Solutions
I recommend everyone look for Codex or Cursor relay services, which can allow more usage than the official versions.
There can also be unlimited free quota solutions.
For simple websites, Cursor is perfectly capable; for tasks requiring compilation and system access, etc., you can switch to Codex.
