<p>I really hope that in a couple of years I can have a laptop that runs a reasonably good coding agent locally, that I can run fast and do most of my programming with, without running my laptop hot. I could keep open code and use other models when needed, but really for most of my work, I'm already breaking it down so that I can review code changes eventually, and I just need something reasonably decent and fast and unlimited. I think its coming.</p>

<p>This was fun! And it told me I know 55k words which made me a little happy.<p>I'm not sure exactly how you did this, but I think you asked an LLM to come up with the wrong options. Two things to consider:<p>1. While the LLM can go r good options, they won't be always hard to guess. I wonder if instead you can have the LLM generate very close words (or skip using an LLM entirely) and put those as the options.
2. If you will generate options with an LLM, make sure you are mindful of its inability to shuffle things around. The correct answer was overwhelmingly the first or second option in the list. You should ask the model to give the options in a uniform order (say from true meaning then decreasing amount of replayability), then manually shuffle them so that the probability of which option (A, B, C or D) is always 25%.</p>

<p>Well I meant he has a big Twitter following and whatever he gets into many are willing to fund and so on.

Will need to find something else.</p>

<p>At least as long as Musk is the CEO, perhaps. I don't think it's easy to find another charismatic figure to keep it going.<p>It's a different kind of hype than Nvidia has, which is showing very high and fast growing revenues (which may not continue, but they're real now). Jensen I think is not as critical to the AI hype as Elon is to his companies.<p>All these major tech companies eventually get leadership changes. Apple, Google, Amazon, have all done well because they're real companies and go beyond their original leadership. Tesla and SpaceX I think would surely go down the moment Musk is no longer in leadership.</p>

<p>You know its not that much work to learn a couple of open chords on the guitar and be able to play some songs and participate. And its so so rewarding to play a song, even one you aren't really excited about, and to sing and accompany yourself even if its a song that's like 2-3 chords (like "You Can't Always Get What You Want" by the Rolling Stones). Just because its YOU making the music and the sounds, its immediately your interpretation and has your soul in it. It becomes so meaningful to you to people around you.<p>You don't have to say I wont be a rockstar, therefore let me use some AI to make a song, and in doing so give up on the joys of touching and making sounds with an instrument, a very old human thing we've been doing all over the world, having someone show you a song, or look up a youtube video and learning it from some random stranger.<p>Even better, being in love with a song and finally being able to play it yourself!<p>Maybe AI could've sufficed for Paul McCartney's interest in music, and provided a creative outlet. But we wouldn't have had something as great and as human as the legacy of the Beatles.</p>

<p>I may be wrong but I don't think there is a theory of melody in as there is go harmony or counterpoint. A good melody can't be constructed from rules. That's what makes them magical.<p>As I write this, I think when a melody sounds good it's likely related to the implied harmony in the notes being used, and obviously the expectations the listener gets and how they're handled. But I don't think there is a system of constructing good melodies in Western classical music theory.</p>

<p>It's not that I don't like AI generated text, it's that I'm tired of the whole it's not this it's that style of writing..<p>AI code is much easier to read than AI text (or book). It's kind of like what people think of the AI generated book cover. That's how I feel about the generic AI writing.</p>

<p>Don't underestimate the meaning and relationships people had in those times, hunting together to feed your family, farming with your community and interacting with animals etc.<p>I think physical activity, even just going on walks makes one feel change is possible. If something sucks and I sit home all day on YouTube, then it continues to suck. If I can change my environment, do things outside, see new people and find myself if different situations, then the thing that sucks starts feeling like maybe it also could change.<p>For example I doubt exercising in a basement just by yourself on 1 machine is likely to materially help with depression. At least not as much as going out doing a variety of things, or playing a game of basketball at the local gym/community center.</p>

<p>> By the way, I would wager that 'long-form'-users are actually the users that pay for the service.<p>I think it may be the case that many of these people that commit suicide or do other dangerous things after motivation from AI, are actually using weaker models that are available on the free versions. Whatever ability there is in AI to protect the user, it must be lower for the cheaper models that are freely available.</p>

<p>> Calling for a shutdown of long conversations if they don't fit some pre-defined idea of problem solving is just not going to happen.<p>I am calling for some care to go in your product to try to reduce the occurrence of these bad outcomes. I just don't think it would be hard for them to detect that a conversation has reached a point that its becoming very likely the user is becoming delusional or may engage in dangerous behavior.<p>How will we handle AGI if we ever create it, if we can't protect our society from these basic LLM problems?</p>

<p>What would be the cost for OpenAI to just stop these kinds of very long conversations that aren't about debugging or some actual long problem solving? It seems from the reports many people are being affected, some very very negatively, and many likely unreported. I don't understand why they don't show a warning or just open a new chat thread when a discussion gets too long or it can be detected that it's not fiction and likely veering into dangerous territory?<p>I don't know how this doesn't give pause to the ChatGPT team. Especially with their supposed mission to be helpful to the world etc.</p>

<p>Responsibility for the aftermath is with the US. They previously didn't do a good job in Afghanistan or Iraq after they assumed defacto control, without really trying to make the countries stand on their own. Life is not much better for the average person there.<p>Venezuela has lots of oil and drugs. If different factions fight between themselves there's no reason you couldn't end up with a divided and dangerous country that in some ways could be worse for the people than Maduro.<p>The best way for "oppressed" people to be liberated is through some joint effort by parties that really want to help out and assume responsibility, or by supporting a revolution that naturally takes over. I don't think there's been any cases of success from this process of forcibly removing the dictator, and crossing your fingers that things will go well.</p>

<p>Not good. This shouldn't be allowed. What would be better is if groq and cerebras combined, and maybe other companies invested in them to help them scale. Why would the major cloud providers not lobby against this?<p>Usually antitrust is for consumers, but here I think companies like Microsoft and AWS would be the biggest beneficiaries of having more AI chip competition.</p>
