Prepared a presentation for months to hold in front of my entire company. Has been down since 9:21 German time. Had one of the worst nights of my live. Now we had to postpone the presentation by two weeks.
I wanna hit someone right now :'(
- sunbum 2y agoWell now you learned you should always record demos. Live demos are always going to fail.
- tkgally 2y agoIn general I agree with you, but sometimes the “live”ness of demos is essential. I’ve given quite a few presentations about LLMs over the past year and a half, often to audiences unfamiliar with or doubtful about them. Being able to have on-the-spot, unplanned interactions with an LLM has been very useful for showing listeners that they are not just preprogrammed algorithms. But I’m giving another demonstration in a couple of weeks, and this time I will be ready to show not only ChatGPT but also Claude and Gemini. And I’ll have some previously prepared examples ready in case the Internet connection goes down.

- scottmcdot 2y agoSorry to hear that. Was the bad night from the poor ChatGPT performance or because of anxiety leading up to the presentation?
