Recently changed from no to yes because many others are not - there are a ton of super talented junior engineers on the market right now, it's much easier to hire for than seniors.

Sure, OpenAI shouldn't have had a 4o sycophancy issue, but who would've guessed that a "be nice to the user" fine-tune would turn in to a murder-suicide? I think OpenAI is only now beginning to realize how connected some

You're still dealing with the fact that Google ranks results based partly on ad-revenue, so even if you're blocking the ads you're getting routed to spammier sites.

For fun a few years ago I went through the process of deciding what my favorite song was. I had a gut feeling but wanted to take a scientific approach, I listened to my top listened songs from the last decade over and over as part of a brac

Not good enough, scammers will make copycat look-alike addresses that have the same first ~7 and last ~7 characters.

Ironically, Home Depot is the only store I ever shoplifted from because of a bad UX on their app. They have/had a "shop in store" mode, where you can scan an item and pay for it in the app. So I scan and pay and leave. A few

This is great. Will it solve the three biggest issues with ChatGPT agent? 1. Proxy support for sites that block the user 2. Browser extensions support for uBlock, password managers, etc. 3. CAPTCHA solving

Finding, comparing, and ordering products -- I'd ask it to find 5 options on Amazon and create a structured table comparing key features I care about along with price. Then ask it to order one of them.

I hope agents.txt becomes standard and websites actually start to build agent-specific interfaces (or just have API docs in their agent.txt). In my mind it's different from "robots" which is meant to apply rules to broad web-

I was buying plenty of stuff through Amazon before they blocked Operator. Now I sometimes buy through other sites that allow it. The most useful for me was: "here's a picture of a thing I need a new one of, find the best deal and

I've been using OpenAI operator for some time - but more and more websites are blocking it, such as LinkedIn and Amazon. That's two key use-cases gone (applying to jobs and online shopping). Operator is pretty low-key, but once Ag

What an awful app too. It doesn't refresh the current temperature without force-quitting and restarting. Not as bad as my water heater app though. Couldn't get it to pair after 30 mins of headbanging, finally got through to their

Thought it was spam until I saw the "rental" at the bottom. Why would you have a completely blank header (where everyone expects the navigation to be) and then throw the actual navigation at the bottom? No site does that.

Agreed - let's say your employees cost $100/yr and your revenue is $150/yr, with a $50/yr profit. Now your employees suddenly become 2X more productive because of AI. Do you... A) Fire half your staff, now earning $100 p

This appears to be a very thoughtful and helpful study. It's also impressive to see the improvement in performance in just the last year of model development - almost double. I've found o3 & deep research to be very effective
