<p>I actually found out that sometimes the less specific you are, the better the result. Sometimes even giving them "drunken" prompts with just a few keywords is enough, just something to let them understand where you're trying to get at and they fill out the rest. If you specify too much they tend to hyperfixate on things.</p>

<p>I remember trying to deploy it a couple years ago and it was fairly complicated. Granted, I was trying to deploy a multi-node mnesia cluster, which is probably what caused all my issues.<p>But for non-production single nodes I just created a Dockerfile and deployed it because the other options were too much hassle. Can't remember the details, but in my (in)experience, deploying was always the hard part with Elixir.<p>I will need to try it again, it's been a while and the ecosystem has improved dramatically in the meantime ... and it was already excellent before. Good stuff!</p>

<p>>It won’t kill creativity, it’s just another creative tool.<p>I've been banging on this drum since AI's inception, and will continue do so.<p>Even if machines were capable of directly reading our mind and outputting a perfect representation of exactly what we wanted at the mere thought of it, it's still a mere tool bound by the creativity of its artist, even if the artist were the AI itself.<p>Art is dead. Art is always dead.<p>Did people complain when digital paintings became a thing?</p>

<p>> Or they think that users would rather have a faster GPT-4 than a smarter but slower one.<p>And they are absolutely right.<p>GPT-4 is already much more than enough for 90% of tasks while maintaining a sane dose of human double-checking.<p>Making it faster enables real-time workflows, and better energy efficiency also gives them much more capability to serve more requests/users while lowering costs. And that knowledge likely carries over to GPT-5 or whatever.</p>
