After a few conversations about how nobody is going to use Tim Berners-Lee's proposed model for people managing their own social media data, etc., I figured out some ways to make it cool, with no intention of building them myself

Its illuminating to watch open AI try to finesse it's compute load in real time. Dall-e in ChatGPT used to produce four images à la midjourney, but they regulated it to one image per query. Right now the app is overly eager to switch me into 3.5, which I'm sure is much cheaper 🤷🏼♂️
AGI's hold my beer moment: ChatGPT now remembers all your chats, knows you from them, and is agentic for $20/mo
This chat is pure gold. Happy Birthday to me!
Here's my conversation with @leecronin, a chemist and co-author of a controversial new Nature paper on the origin and evolution of life and complexity.

Every once in a while, it occurs to me that other people probably *aren't* talking to ChatGPT about the internal vector knowledge space of large language models and fundamental principles of information and knowledge theory.

Is it possible the new model capabilities broke voice chat on iPhone for everything but the DALL-E model? @OpenAI
How is it ChatGPT doesn't have an iPhone keyboard with dictation? I thought LLMs were just autocomplete keyboards in the first place @OpenAI

First for me: had a job offer, but wanted a bit more $, so rather than just asking for it, I explained my potential value and suggested a couple add'l responsibilities that would justify a salary bump. A: they're 'not in a position to support someone with my qualifications' 🤬

Humor and reasoning are not the same thing, but this unprompted joke from GPT4 took me by surprise. I gave it permission to use emojis for subtext etc. By the end of this prolonged DALL-E collab, though, it got stuck in emoji loops. When I told it to skip them, it got cheeky...
