But obviously increasing avg and sr programmer productivity by many x implies many fewer jobs for programmers. That’s the point we’re interested in.

Why can’t the Disney creatives simply lie and use the AI to ideate and produce drafts that they touch up and pass off as their own? Seems totally rational.

> we won’t have that until we come up with a better way to fund these things. Isn't this already happening with LLaMA and Dalai etc.? Already now you can run Whisper yourself. And you can run a model almost as powerful as gpt-3.5-tu

The entire living arrangement you describe would have to change pretty radically if/when you had a spouse and kids... That's basically the rub with all this.

any tips for advanced use of github search? For example I want to find cases of people using openai to parse unstructured text to JSON (I have a version working, but it was painful); or some good implementations of async openai (again, figu

Totally agree on both the incredible utility of this -- but also the name change. It feels like there's way too much overlap between these two. Before long we're going to be building a UI for "Pinecone" using... "Py

No it just increases the hurdle rate for valuable investments. It just means that entrepreneurs have to prove that their ideas are worth more than the security of knowing your money is safe. Is that so bad??

Underrated comment; and I'm using this term to describe the effect of temperature in future.

Yep but look how hard the Fed has fought to prevent the existence of 'narrow banks'. Cartel logic in full effect.

Have you considered making the repo public so other folks (well, certainly me!) could extend and adapt the idea to other use cases? It's just very exciting work and it would be fun to see the code.

It's not "nonsense" -- it's "woke praxis." By asserting this new understanding of language, woke activists are able to shape social reality. That's the point of the movement. So comments like this are a fo

The post has no methods section. So we have no clue what their data was, how they gathered it, how representative it was... nothing. I didn't find this particularly useful. Surely there is a group out there who's done a high quali

Well that's cause his _actual_ point is that they shouldn't have to, and that public schools should be run differently so as to eliminate the advantage of rich people just circumventing them, ya dig?
