My dishwasher has buttons on the top like this, and during the heat dry cycle the steam will activate the buttons and I'll hear lots of random beeps from the kitchen. Ponce in a while it manages to cancel or restart itself, hilariously

For me the window is laggy and takes a few seconds to resize or move. It's also not reliable when prompting sometimes it just sits there with no output and I have to quit and restart. I've since uninstalled the desktop app and I&#

On the flip side, the ChatGPT desktop app is native on Mac and it's buggy and feature-incomplete compared to the web version.

Yes, just as my 10-yr-old old Java Applets and Flash games run perfectly... oh wait.

Presumably every step has to also read the tokens from the previous steps, so it gets more expensive over time. If you run it on a single task for an hour I would not be surprised if it consumed hundreds of dollars of tokens.

Any anecdotes about how many $ of API credits this thing costs to run for a simple task like booking a flight?

Basically, if it means companies can introduce automation without changing anything about the tooling/workflow/programs they already use, it's going to be MASSIVE. Just and install and a prompt and you've already automat

It's crazy to me how I can be completely stumped on a crossword puzzle, and then after a jog I come home and knock it out. Really kicks your brain into high gear.

That's really strange. I don't see any planes in gates at LGW either, but spot checked other airports that have planes in gates.

I'd much rather talk to ChatGPT than a human support rep, provided they have the same level of ability (tools) to help you.

It's incredible that people are talking about the downfall of software engineering - now, at many companies, hundreds of call center roles will be replaced by a few engineering roles. With image fine-tuning, now we can replace radiolog

Agreed, it just seems like Nvidia chips are going to be easier to produce at scale. Cerberas will be limited to a few niche use-cases, like HFT where hedge funds are using LLMs to analyze SEC filings as fast as possible.

It's worth mentioning that the simulations and results were done by and judged by LLMs. It makes sense to me that LLMs would come up with responses that other LLMs think is the most logical.

Transaction volume goes up and down. Just look at ETH gas prices - varying between 1 and 1000 month-to-month. BTC holders aren't going to be OK with a temporary lull in transactions leading to a double-spend attack etc.

Bitcoin can't always be proof-of-work. Given the capped supply, the mining rewards will eventually diminish to the point that the network is no longer secure. It will have to transition to proof-of-stake or some other mechanism long

I do find that the rule-based, classic CV "lane assist / adaptive cruise control" of other makes is preferable, because it's extremely predictable. Tesla's full neural model is less predictable.

There's a pretty big spectrum between perfect driving and a collision. FSD could drive on the wrong side of the road for miles with no accident because it's an empty road, or oncoming traffic swerved to avoid you.

Most code is grounded in real-world concepts somehow. Imagine an engineer at Domino's asking it to write an ordering app. Now your model needs to know what goes in to a pizza.

There are few use-cases where voice-only would be an improvement to screens. Voice-only is extremely limited in its discoverability and the information that it can relay to you. Imagine going to a restaurant and not getting a menu, instead
