True, but only in the long term. Cutting edge AI will continually provide a competitive advantage and access will result in better products. Once the diminishing returns of improvements drop off or when it gets "good enough", then

The current batch of YC was all given access. I'd guess OpenAI has a profit sharing agreement to incentivize it. > At least GPT4 isn't good enough to use something like AutoGPT I worry that GPT-4 will continue to get better whi

Exactly. Just goes against their mission, if that’s still a thing.

They can’t know. Eventually it will be open to everyone like cloud providers are today.

It’s far better at producing workable code, logical reasoning, keeping a train of thought, etc. Their benchmark breaks it down. https://openai.com/research/gpt-4

This is a fair argument. However, their mission contradicts the advantage they’re providing to friends. > Our mission is to ensure that artificial general intelligence benefits all of humanity.

This post refers to API access to GPT-4, which is only available via gated waitlist. I pay for ChatGPT and hit the cap regularly.

Either we're in a simulation or the universe is infinite and has always existed. Eventually the science will catch up. Eternal Inflation is a similar idea, but suggests greater spacing between universes allowing for independent physics

FYI, Peter is a bit of a sensationalist (he’s been predicting China will collapse within 10 years since 2005).

gotta find those that value equity > cash or look at more junior devs also, some businesses don't need A players bc their industry doesn't compete on technology (e.g., real estate dialers).

i’ve managed a few. its generally one of the following: 1. they have potential, but consistently get in their own way. they need therapy or a new career path, which is outside of the scope of a managers job to correct. 2. some engineers are

layoffs are great for this. they allow companies to shed employees they couldn't justify firing before.

A players attract A players, but A players also push out B players if you're tolerating < A players, you might want to take a hard look at yourself.

incompetence should never be tolerated, but incompetent + nice are the hardest employees to remove. incompetence erodes culture, leads to bureaucracy and the slow death of a company. assholes will help you push out incompetent employees

my best mentors were brilliant assholes. assholes respect competence and push out shitty performers. we've all been sold a lie.

being competent and nice is exhausting (due to personalities, policy, politics). its easier to compromise on being nice or slacken your ambition than to navigate existing disfunction. assholes used to be welcome, but the bias is now toward

MBTI is useful. It's a shortcut to seeing your own blind spots and typing people will likely improve the quality of your interactions (it has for me). I married the exact opposite of my personality and raise two kids that mirror us. I

What garbage. Claiming survey results from self-selecting anonymous website visitors as "research" isn't even junk science — it's spam.

It happens to the best of us. For those of you who have friends going through something like this, your friend still needs you. Reach out. Have faith in them. You might be the reason they land on their feet.
