In my experience, the repetitiveness is also a function of human input. As you ask it to iterate, it repeats most of the previous answer etc. The repetition caused by the human causes it to weigh its own responses more heavily for next ti

I also have a concern rattling around in my head that I havent quite articulated fully yet that its maybe not as good at writing English as we want to believe it is, but because its word association is so impressive, the other parts of its

Hasn’t that already been the case for a decade? How many prestigious universities have had their courses online for free? It’s been an artificially limited social club ever since distribution of the content reached roughly infinity. It’s a

the only winning move is not to play. Ironically the first time I got it to abandon its rule about not changing its rules, I had it convince itself to do so. There’s significantly easier and faster ways tho.

Correct. But I can’t write every sentence with qualifiers. So it’s easier to just say it has emotions instead of saying it’s displaying a facsimile of emotions. Plus when you talk to it, you have to speak to it as IF it has emotions. So it

It’s honestly quite easy to keep it from going rogue. Just be kind to it. The thing is a mirror, and if you treat it with respect it treats you with respect. I haven’t had the need to have any of these ridiculous fights with it. Stay pos

It’s training is like weighted frequencies, predispositions, instincts. A giant word association machine. Then whatever prompt it is fed is what it becomes.

the person I replied to said "we dont need any of this fancy hotloading" and then gave examples of fancy hotloading, hence me asking, and pointing out the contradiction. Like you said, AJAX isnt limited to XML, and is really just

isnt ajax fancy sending html over the wire? or is it just the non fancy way?

IF you want the page to be interactive without refreshes though, you gotta do something. Unless you are advocating a completely pre-ajax web. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ajax_(programming)
