Yeah, this is a dumb slippery slope. If you want to depend on Youtube for saving lives, pay for premium.

I fully support fast tracking medication in an attempt to save lives, but if you are going to say "trust the science" when there is no data only then to quietly walk back what had been said before because there was inconclusive sc

Even Fauci walked that back. So, show me your evidence. All media I've read contradicts what you are saying.

COVID specifically has very little data, we are literally building data as we go. That was not the narrative I received during the pandemic.

If a hobbiest can draw that conclusion why didn't the top medical folks of our governments not relay that information to the public at the start of all of this?
187.
by monkeynotes 4y ago
If you ask me it's massively irresponsible for your top medical advisor to say something as factual if it's not backed up by evidence. You cannot ask the public to trust science when the truth is there is no science, but your medi

Seems in keeping with most of the vaccine policy for COVID. Don't need solid data, just say "it stops the virus spreading, trust science" then roll that back laster. Science these days has become more political than fact base

Yes. If I was on OpenAI's board or product team, this is exactly where I'd be trying to go. It's a purely technical challenge with nothing standing in its way beyond regular engineering problem solving. 1) Scaling 2) Efficien

@riku_iki That was actually me. And it already can write Jiras, scaffold code, and help write docs. Doesn't need any significant reasoning, just a well trained model and contextual data. However, I didn't say it was going to 100%

And that's why traditional search is going to give way to GPT search. It solves this problem more or less already. Feed it web pages and you can talk to it, guide it with a conversation etc. Here is a realistic example for how searchin

Good thing that not all of the use cases that are finding footholds today require skills it does not yet have. Why are "significant reasoning skills" needed to help you write a song, or help rewrite your resume, or find an answer

And just like ICEs and jets, each tech increasingly became otherworldly and revolutionary at doing what it does well.

Except Bitcoin and NFTs are still looking for real world adoption beyond the grifter pump and dumpers. GPT has many, many existing real world use cases. It can answer legal questions, write your homework, write code, I really don't und

I gave GPT your comment and asked it to write a reply, first it was too formal so I asked it to make the response more casual and less verbose. I think you and I do live in a separate world, to me this is such a large leap in what was previ

Not everything is a big org that spends its time and money chasing compliance for no reason. It's cynical because you are viewing everything through one personal perspective that is loosely grounded in reality, and choosing to not see

Here's my killer app theory for stuff like GPT, just one example... MS Teams gets the GPT treatment. It watches all your chats, email, calendars, code, wiki, meetings, spreadsheets, documents. Where is Slack now? If you want to know ab

No, these are not the same at all. I don't know if this is just trolling but in case you are just naive let's call out the obvious differences: 1) IRC bots could not write novel text, just pre-planned responses. They cannot respon

IMO this is all a PR exercise to build momentum against China and urge the US to begin some kind of trade and/or cold war, or even worse, military action around Taiwan. A week or so ahead of all this a US general was saber rattling[1]

Saying ChatGPT isn't smart is like saying dialup is slow in the early days of the internet. It doesn't really matter, what matters is it's changing everything. This is like an iPhone moment, a confluence of technologies expre

Why is a high frame rate better? I find motion blur in standard frame rates is what makes a movie immersive. Whenever I watch shows on a modern TV at HFR they just look like real life, as if you are standing next to the actor and seeing pas
