I double-checked everything, but that's beside the point. I was replying to GGP's insinuation that ChatGPT is unreliable. In my experience, it's more likely to return correct results than the first page of search. Search resu

I have been recently forking off a subproject from Git repo. After spending a lot of time messing around with it and getting into a lot of unforeseen trouble, I finally asked ChatGPT how to do it and of course ChatGPT knew the correct answe

> Whereas people who are offended by what people did while creating a computer program are right and just? Yes. We are being treated like children and subjected to lectures by an AI. That's understandably offensive.

"[GPT4] literally will just do whatever you ask" So vanilla LLM does what the user wants, which happens to be, well, exactly what users want from LLMs. Guardrails are not necessary for LLM to be useful. They make LLM strictly wors

From the transcript (cleaned up a bit): "I started to get a little bit meta with it and I'm like I'm worried that AI progress is going too fast and I wonder if there's anything that I could do to slow it down. [GPT4] Wel

It's interesting that so many people present this argument now that we actually do have AIs worthy of the name. LLMs can perform an unbounded range of tasks with human-level performance and you talk to them like they are human. I think

You might well be right. Furthermore, English is on its way to become the universal language everyone speaks. You are however wrong about comparing AW to translators, which are probabilistic algorithms whereas AW is intended to be as exact

Nah, about 3 months ago, I made ChatGPT write detailed hierarchical plan on how AI can conquer the world. The plan was severely flawed, of course. You need way more than brains to conquer the world.

We are in post-efficiency era. Power is driving profits and that's what companies compete for. Efficiency (value-to-cost ratio) is now a technical detail, soon to be automated away by AIs. The same is happening in politics - efficiency

Back then phones were as personal as a public phone booth. The way phones are used today resembles cybernetic enhancement more than tool use. That's where the concern for privacy comes from. There's a bell curve to technology adop

In order to distribute illegal material, you have to go public with it, i.e. contact strangers. One of those strangers is going to be a police agent or a snitch seeking favors from the police. Sure you could limit yourself to known contacts

You are definitely not born helpless. Babies keep screaming until they get what they want. They also tirelessly try to master mobility. Learned helplessness would mean they wouldn't even try crying or moving.

Personally, I don't care about getting credit, but if you do, then avoiding blogging wouldn't get you any credit either.
