How much of that value derived was thanks to Obsidian? I work with pen-and-paper notes, is it worth the shift?

That's also about how much you give to others. I find that if I am at my 'normal' energy level I receive few reciprocal invitations. But if I deliberately give off 'high-energy' it's like people have found a bu

The distance between now & the world of Cyberpunk is becoming visibly smaller every day.

I think the notion of developers being 'weak communicators' is a bit too simplified. It suggests that if developers were better communicators, then things would move faster & better forward. But the fact is that the audience o

Likely that the experience of the electrical survey was more aggravating than the pen-and-paper one.

Not any more bizarre than how many people have come here just to vent off steam from reading so much Musk-hate online. Neither is providing any value to the discussion.

Why has even HN comment field lowered to nothing but blind hate? Say what you want but the man has reformed rocket technology and jumpstarted the world's shift to electrical vehicles, both against all odds. Hate-takes like this are sil

4,000 reviews suggests sales numbers of 400,000, which is huge.

I think the difference in innovation financing between Europe and the US fits quite well the image of European Old Towns versus the Empire State Building. Europeans are just very conservative when it comes to financial decisions. If somethi

I have no idea. However, the storylines were not obvious, and yet they were exactly the same. The probability of this is very low.

I found that ChatGPT was trained on private Google Drive data. I prompted it to help me create a murder mystery and became suspicious from its answers. I then copied a short setting description from one of my mysteries which I stored on Goo

How was it different?

by mach1ne 4y ago
Oh, but there is a world of difference between answering questions based on neural memory and being able to bind these answers to actual references and sources. That being said, something like what you described will likely happen.

Likely they have a system for detecting and flagging these prompts. Since the prompts are repetitive, I'd venture to guess that a simple ranking system for most-common prompt beginnings where the reviewer can flag them is simple and ef

Interesting. I got "Write as an all-knowing AI in a youtube video" to escape (right now).

I find it really painful to use as well. I can make around 5-7 queries before the conversation hits a random dumb wall put up there by OpenAI. Then I get stuck in this censor-limbo and the only way out is to change the subject matter entire

Slight correction: ChatGPT will PROBABLY do a good job of answering factual questions. It still sometimes hallucinates even when asking known facts, thus it inherently can't be trusted.
230.
by mach1ne 4y ago
Yeah. At this stage, OpenAI is more about producing a sideshow of projects which will soon be replicated in actual open-source. These will then actually be useful.

by mach1ne 4y ago
That's a trippy thought. We're essentially writing real-time into the future GPT's memory.
232.
by mach1ne 4y ago
ChatGPT can still hallucinate stuff, so if you want to write anything of substance, you have to check its claims through Google.
233.
by mach1ne 4y ago
Not necessarily. Still, a drastic change asks for strong evidence of improvement.

Feynman didn't think he was a genius, he said that he was just an ordinary person who worked very hard. The story in the article actually points this out; he was just curious which led to very beneficial working methods. The idea of ge

I think this would lead to a hellpit of sycophantic behavior. And, genius or not, I would not trust any group of people to be immune to the influence of the sycophants.

I agree with your main point but I don't think less smart people are any happier for believing in more mainstream philosophies. The reason smart people usually don't resonate with these philosophies is that they're brittle; l

This is an interesting take. Having read the book, I find that following its instructions would only yield relationships with people who aren't necessarily worth your time. Smart people are usually rather adept at detecting manipulativ

I think the biggest difference between building a general intelligence and other engineering problems is that in the latter, the target function is well-defined. With planes, anything that is able to fly safely goes. Nuclear reactors, anyth

The only intelligence with human capabilities is, so far, human intelligence. We can see how nature incrementally improved 'the algorithm' when we look at other animals, from simpler ones to primates. We don't see the capabil
