I'm going to use those things as answer machines and you can't stop me.

Jokes aside, I always validate what chatbots tell me, not even just important things. I use GPT-4 for work and 90% of the time it can show me how to use very specific functions in complex ways, but yesterday (for the first time in awhile) it made up a function that didn't exist. To its credit, I said, "Are you sure about [function]?" and it said, "I'm sorry, I got confused. That function doesn't exist. However, look into X, Y, Z for further resources" and I did and they were the correct things to look into.

It's technically the GPT-4 base model but not the one running on ChatGPT.

Whatever fine-tuning OpenAI has done is leagues better than what Microsoft's team has done with Bing Chat.

The best ones can literally write pretty good code, and explain any concept on the Internet to you that you ask them to. If you don't understand a specific thing about their explanation, they can add onto their explanation, and they can respond in the style you want (explain as if I'm ten, explain as if I'm an undergrad, etc).

I use it literally every day for work in a somewhat niche field. I don't really agree that it's a "parlor trick".

Keep up the good work. You're a great avocate.

I was kind of with you until saying they're "being a fucking idiot."

Encouraging someone to help out? Great.

Browbeating someone for voicing the viewpoint or experience a lot of users are facing? We can do better than that.

I asked GPT-4 with the exact same wording and it answered:

"N/A"

Fascinating that people with stutters can be helped by practicing speaking with speech jammers.

It makes me think about how ADHD medication will make people without ADHD more distractible while it'll help focus people with it.

I got 9/12. Nice spread of difficulty in those questions.

John Wayne Gacy is really unhappy with this feature.

I've often looked out of a 20th story window at pedestrians and thought, "They have no idea someone is looking at them right now," and then I always wonder how many times that has happened to me.

That must happen to people all the time who visit that church.
