You can have ideas for productivity that only make sense in the moment when you're in a state of flow.

Reduce context switching by batching similar tasks. A broader version of this is only working on a single project for the whole day, or the whole week (if you have multiple projects to work on).

Exercise can help a lot with this, and getting enough sleep.

Improve your health, like many others have said. Habitual brain exercises work too. Crosswords, mental math, etc.

1. Look after your health. What works to alleviate stress for me is Ashwagandha. A single tablet does the trick (you should only take it if stressed or it will make you very lethargic, i.e. not daily). 2. Get busy, action overcomes fear. St

Mental math can be surprisingly good for your brain.

That's like copy & paste from a Stackoverflow answer without understanding what the code does. Except that it could happen more often, but devs need to be trained not to do this without understanding.

I'm thinking of the stories I've read about developer burnout. Then tweets where people say developing is 90% debugging and 10% writing code. These systems would hopefully reduce burnout, shorten troubleshooting times, and identif

It's augmenting software developers in a way that's badly needed. I personally hope it stays that way, but people are always pushing the limits and there's still a lot of improvements that could be made to these systems.

I think it's important to be aware of the potential dangers, and the importance of AI safety. OpenAI is working hard to keep their systems safe, but similar systems without filtering could act without limits, that is dangerous in dange

I couldn't believe it when someone posted a story about a possible AI winter approaching, and with so many comments agreeing. GPT-4 is a game-changer that's only getting started.

Totally agree, also, change one thing at a time. Give it some weeks/months to see if what you changed works for you.

There are supplements which can do that for people, and I think magnesium and B complex would have a positive effect on most people. It's so important that I think it should be taught in schools. Another potentially life changing suppl

Games do indeed take up a huge amount of time. If I'm stressed I'll take Ashwagandha.

I would argue that ChatGPT has reached a certain level of understanding about what it's saying. That's because you can ask it questions about what it says, and it can continue to reason along the line of what it's previously

You're right. The larger and more diverse cities are what you should look for. I had other, specific countries in mind when I wrote that, where I thought it applied.

The city/town you relocate to also has an impact. I think it's generally accepted that moving to the capital of a country is easier for foreigners.

I've asked ChatGPT for solutions to coding problems I haven't encountered before, as well as error messages that aren't immediately obvious. This augments Google for me. I'm also working on a UX for AI to make people mor

Exactly this. This makes will eventually make it difficult for new AI startups, once those existing solutions get technically up to speed, if they can't differentiate in a meaningful way. My own startup is https://inventai.x

I'm planning to add something like this to https://inventai.xyz . Subscriptions aren't ready, so you can't actually generate anything yet.

Glad to hear that! I'm still developing the ability for users to define their own templates. Subscriptions to allow for content generation is technically done, I just need to finish some admin before I enable it.

Every new generation of LLMs can write code better than the previous ones. It's really just a matter of time as the models keep improving. They can already generate basic solutions in one shot if simple enough and if enough examples we
