There's more to life than money past a certain point, I'd rather live in the Alps on a lower salary.

Is it not due to the all the user data they are gathering?

Maybe by doing this people will worry about them doing what you're suggesting, while they still do it.

Plenty of people deliberately posting to HN have their servers overwhelmed.

It's wierd because the barrier to not have that in is so low, you can just tack on 'talk like me not AI, dont use em dashes, don't use formulaic structures, be concice' and itll get rid of half of those signals.

I don't mean that people say Hi, or goodbye, or niceties like that. I'm talking about people that say things like "just fucking do it" or "that's wrong you idiot try again'.

I don't think I implied that there should be. What I mean is, for me to talk/type considerably differently to an LLM would take more mental effort than just talking how I normally talk, whereas some people seem to put effort into being rude/mean to LLMs.

So either they are putting extra effort into talking worse to LLMs, or they are they are putting more effort into general conversations with humans (to not act like their default).

I am! But seriously, I've seen some conversations of how people talk to LLMs and it seems kinda insane how people choose to talk when there are no consequences. Is that how they always want to talk to people but know that they can't?

I talk politely to LLMs because I talk politely.

New comment by kraftman in "ChatGPT Health"

I'm on some anti rejection meds post-transplant and chatgptd some of my symptoms and it said they were most likely caused by my meds. Two different nephrologists told me that the meds I'm on didn't cause those symptoms before looking it up themselves and confirming they do. I think LLMs have a place in this as far as being able to quick come up with hyphotesese that can be looked into and confirmed/disproved. If I hadn't had chatGPT, I wouldnt have brought it or my team would have just blamed lifestyle rather than meds.

I can't deal with having more than ~5 permananent tabs and 5 temporary open tabs. if i have so many tabs open i cant read what they are I know something has gone wrong with what I'm trying to do, so I try and reset.

I wouldn't be surprised if they don't. Valve don't want to sell hardware, they want to sell games. They only make hardware as flagships for new markets, then they want other hardware manufacturers to take over.

I guess. I also used it to check the side effects of coming off prednisolone, and it gave me some areas to look at. I've used it a bunch to check out things around kidney transplants and everything ive verified has been correct.

Sure. I wanted to tile my bathroom, from chatgpt i learned about laser levels, ledger boards, and levelling spacers (id only seen those cross corner ones before).

Maybe but then thats the same wether I talk to chatGPT or a human isnt it? except with chatgpt i instantly verify what im looking for, whereas with a human i cant do that.
