OK I'll try again: Forward: fine tune responses base on new prompts with more details (output from human) - learn from human to create context human -> machine Reverse: condense large inputs with details to best fit understanding ba

Do we already believe its answers are better than what you get on HN?

I don't understand why it cannot "learn" the way we understand things and tailor it personally. It already can remember context between prompts so I don't see how this is a "new major element".

So the point I am trying to make is to compress the concepts instead of just the bits now that we AI that seems to understand our words and thoughts.

It will be painful. That's probably the most important lesson you need to learn before starting. 1. log your weight everyday on a graph 2. eat very small portions, no carbs 3. when hungry force yourself to drink a large glass of water

The world is not as simple as you want it to be. It’s a negative feedback loop. The current customer service is so bad that people who call get traumatized so next time they call they put up their defenses and sound more of an asshole than

Honestly Altavista would have been ‘code red’ for Google if it still existed. There is nothing but SEO spam on Google nowadays. They basically have a few niche areas where they rank sites like stackoverflow and wikipedia the highest and eve

We killed a big chunk of the internet when browsers stopped supporting Flash. It's even worse than that, that part of the internet was not built upon instead many things had to be created from scratch without Flash. I'm not saying

Why do people here have this complete sense of powerlessness about these issues? 90% of HN seem to think banning these words are at best silly, yet seem to be ambivalent about stopping it. These aren't laws of nature other people just

Perhaps the disease worth curing even more is the mindset that rejects longevity.

Also it was their money before they died. Who are you to say what they should or shouldn't do with it? There is absolutely benefit in doing this type of research even if there is only a small chance that it ends up working.

Of course it is, but it's no place to dwell in. You wake up and realize you've been in a car crash. Best thing to do would be try to reach for immediate help, not to focus on or be thankful that you gained consciousness. There is

> No offense to the reply, but “need a therapist” is a very American response and a bit of a cop out. Why? I'd change it to "need a psychiatrist".

I'd go one step further and recommend a real doctor, a psychiatrist.

Maybe for minor things it's good. But for depression and serious mental issues absolutely not. For example you can't do analysis without being physically present with your doctor [1]. [1] https://en.wikipedia.org/w

Second that. I wish people would avoid not rejecting "it's too late for kids at 43". The more implicit affirmation you hear on HN it strengthens that false belief.

No a psychiatrist is. Stop wasting people's time and put them in more danger than they already are.

Great outlook. This is literally true though with modern medicine and standard of living at many countries. If you take care of yourself, stay fit, fix your brain life only gets better. If you're a pissed off 25 year who can't get
