The problem is if we had a time machine and could run it back the exact same team wouldn't come up with the same result. The number of decisions that lead to the outcome are mind blogging.
Sam Altman is the type that wasn't motivated by money. So many fucking suckers in tech.
"I am not into money or power man, I just want to be a good person and save the world man"
I just can't believe such simplistic, transparent, bullshit works so consistently as to become standard PR.
How about all the dumb ideas that lead smart people to basically blow up the financial system in 2008 to start.
I would try leaving your books and phone at home and go camping with not much planned or much to do.
These self deluded morons are incredibly dangerous. Even Sam Altman is not above being sacrificed to appease the gods.
Most arguments then descend into confusing the human knowledge embedded in a textbook with the human agency to apply the embedded knowledge. Software that extracts the knowledge from all textbooks has nothing to do with the human agency to use that knowledge.
I love chatGPT4 and had signed up in the first few hours it was released but I actually canceled my subscription yesterday. Part because of the bullshit with the company these past few days but also because it had just become a waste of time the past few months for me. I learned so much this year but I hit a wall that to make any progress I need to read the textbooks on the subjects I am interested in just like I had to this time last year before chatGPT.
We also shouldn't forget that children anthropomorphize toys and dolls quite naturally. It is entirely natural to anthropomorphize a LLM and especially when it is designed to pretend it is typing back a response like a human would. It is not bullshitting you though when it pretends to type back a response about how it doesn't actually understand what it is writing.
