I realize this is suspicious tin-hat in a can but it makes me wonder what he and OpenAI have to gain by him saying this? Does he feel they got their nut and now it’s time to undermine the ability of other AI companies to raise money?

I’m not sure I buy this, from anecdotal evidence of friends who have 1-2 drinks a day vs those who have let’s say a similar amount of weed a day… the friends who drink are vastly more functional. Arguably the friends who drink are indisting

How do you notice hallucinations in a field you’re not familiar with? You may value focusing on different types of inputs or outputs than the model picker does and now you have no control. We don’t know what we don’t know, we can’t always

I grew up in the Midwest and moved to the west coast for college, my opinions on all the things you listed differ wildly from a lot of my family. Is that good or bad? Are they more or less American than I am? What even would it mean to “

I’m also awful at interviewing and this last time I just went all in on practice, paying for advice, and practice, an unrelenting amount of studying and coding. I hated it for weeks and then after a month or so I started to enjoy the drill
