The new model does play very well but when it draws the board it frequently places the moves in incorrect locations (but seemingly still keeps track of the correct ones). But I can't fault it too much, I don't think what is essent

This is also one of the first things I test with new models. I did notice that while it still plays very poorly, it is actually far more consistent with the board state, making only legal moves, and noticing when I win than is GPT4o.

This is great! I used to hate all forms of webdev but ClojureScript actually makes it enjoyable, I really hope it gets more traction.

Don't forget the account to open shared mailboxes for packages. "Luxor" for me. It actually works so I don't mind much but I hadn't really considered how much extra rent all the apps might be costing me.

Crazy. If they won't let me speak to a person I'd still much prefer just having a generic click-your-timeslot web app than waste time talking to a bot. And for millions of dollars they could just hire a human for a decade or more.

Yeah I really don't understand why research is still being published that uses GPT3.5 rather than GPT4 or both models. ~500 programming questions is maybe a few bucks on the API?
