Same here. Taking notes is incredibly helpful, especially when I'm stuck or unfocused. I just start writing anything that's on my mind and it's like the writing does the thinking for me. While I used to type notes digitally,

In my limited experience, I came to the same conclusion regarding simple prompt being more efficient than very detailed list of instructions. But if you look at OpenAI's system prompt for GPT4, it's an endless set of instructions

I think the reason why LLMs pose a much higher risk is scale. A bad therapist will impact a limited number of patients, whereas an LLM deployed at scale will affect possibly millions of people. In matters of health and safety, the smallest

I use an app called Daylio to do something like that. It's a mood and habit tracker with journaling. I set up a reminder everyday to record my mood, select the activities I'm tracking and write a few words. It takes less than a mi

What infuriates me is that it scrolls while generating an answer and the text keeps shifting while I'm trying to read at the same time. Doesn't look like a hard problem to solve, it should just keep the viewport fixed. Am I the o

I think this video does a much better job. It places the problem in the historical context of computer science and explains why it's an important question. It's also more in depth while still being very short and approachable. I h

A few tricks that work for me when learning a new topic with chatGPT. I start by asking an overview of the subject, like a course syllabus, before diving in. When learning a new programming language, I found it useful to tell what programmi

The article doesn't make any distinction between people who are infected and will never express symptoms and people who are within the incubation period before symptoms onset. Or rather, it seems to only consider the former. I believe

GPT also uses embeddings. It converts each token into a vector that captures the meaning and context of the word. Related tokens are close by in this large vector space. The way I understand it is that the best way to predict the next words
