It depends on the angle you look. From a software eng infra standpoint, in general, ok. But we can look elsewhere. In the mobile space, for example, it's hard to deny iOS & Android, Appstore & Google Play. In terms of privacy,

In my opinion (you may differ), Apple and Google are notorious for locking their users onto their proprietary platforms to milk as much money as they can, no matter at what cost. So complaining about Github proprietary tools and at the same

> "illegally discriminating based on race" Is there a legal way to discriminate based on race? I thought that was pretty much illegal in most countries, despite efforts in sections of both left and right to keep racism alive...

The land isn't really valuable. You can buy a football field for $10 in rural areas. But you'll be in the middle of nowhere, with no infrastructure, no services. The "location" value of a property is tied to what's

Property owners have no control over prices. It's all dictated by supply/demand. Yes, government printing money inflates overall prices. More recently, this happened because governments needed to pay for covid. During inflationary

Having multiple options on the market is healthy. The alternative is called monopoly and it's not good for consumers.

What if we convert "abandoned" offices into hydroponic (or similar) production? Would cities allow this?

Uninformed statements aren't necessarily idiotic, and even if they were, we don't need to call it as such to express disagreement.

Providing factual context in the prompts reduces hallucinations to nearly zero in my anecdotal experiences. For example, I once copy pasted an OSS code base into ChatGPT and all hallucinations went away. I had to limit to the files relevant

How do all businesses in the world coordinate to raise prices simultaneously? And if all prices are rising, aren't businesses costs also rising? If that's so, how are they making more profit across the board, as you suggest?

They're probably referring to fine-tuning on private/proprietary data that is specific to a use case. Say a history of conversation transcripts in a call center. Larger models, like OpenAI's GPT, don't have access to thi

I get anxious just to think that restoring from sleep/hibernation may fail and I lose all my workspace state... If there was no boot failure, nor the need to reboot after some upgrade, I'd never, ever reboot my system.

It doesn't matter, they probably retracted for legal reasons. If you store a copy, it's one thing, but they stated publicly now that they don't stand behind those words anymore.

Exactly, he can't commit to it. He could have said "currently, it's not in OpenAI's plans to create any other app on top of GPT other than Chat". But commiting to a non-compete? Nah, this is too much...

More likely to be the non-compete words, I think.

I don't think this would trigger a request to remove it. It may be the non-compete commitment in Altman's words that triggered. This is a big restriction for the future that he really can't commit.

by rmbyrro 3y ago
I read the archive and didn't have the same impression. This looks like regular Altman interview. I guess they didn't want to be held accountable to the non-compete in the future.

by rmbyrro 3y ago
It's probably something they don't want people to know exactly how they think. If they specified what to remove, we would be able to imply fairly how they think.

I don't think this is ironic. They retracted something they said, this is perfectly legit. I've deleted things I posted, including here on HN. You probably did too. And I've scraped data from the internet countless times. You

How many kilometers cycled and driven? I find it very dubious to assume that cars drive the same amount of kilometers as bikes in the Netherlands...

If you care, you'd extrapolate the 2 fatalities to how many would be if bikes were adopted in mass as a means of transport in the Washington state (comparably to cars). The number of bike trips will not increase by 100x only, certainly
