About Wowfunhappy
I used to work in web development and I still do some programming as a hobby, but I'm currently a fifth grade teacher (because I love working with kids).
My email is my username and gmail. As long as you're not a bot and you're not trying to sell me something, I'd really love to hear from you!

"Complete subservience and complete intelligence do not go together." I'm not convinced this is true. Perhaps for a human it is, but we can give an artificial mind whatever propert…

The versions which haven't been post-trained not to go hack stuff? Yes, I would say those models should be exclusively run on intranets. OpenAI said the model was sandboxed, so the…
