Check out the announcement. GPT-4 accepts mixed-mode inputs of text and images. Mouse cursor instructions aren’t a massive leap from the current capabilities, given the rate of progress and recent developments around LLM tool use and the li

The best way to understand it: Think of a version with 100 doors, 99 with goats and 1 with a car. You choose a door, and the host opens 98 doors that have goats. Do you keep your randomly chosen door or switch to the single door that the ho

While we are bashing the UX… I experienced a weird issue with scrolling that was incredibly annoying as I tried to read the article. I had to very carefully start each scroll action from a certain area of the screen, or else nothing would h

Something being true doesn’t necessarily mean it’s the best thing to say. There’s an infinite number of things one could say. Might as well try to make the words count for something.

I don’t think this is the greatest counter example, as there are far fewer NBA players than big-tech engineers. Small groups can differ significantly from the population average more easily than large groups.
