1. Put a computer in everything 2. Connect all the computers to the Internet 3. Gather all the data from all the computers 4. Train machine learning models to automate some tasks 5. Gather data about automation initiatives 6. Train machine learning models to learn how to automate automation
Automate everything and make all human activity irrelevant
Programmers ask the AI how to fix itself, when it has a bug.

#53My first reaction was, wait how do you use ChatGPT programmatically when it doesn't have an API available yet? I looked into the code and it looks like this uses some kind of wrapper that actually instantiates a headless Firefox session and interacts with it using JavaScript callbacks. Pretty nifty, but how long until this gets clamped down on? I assume it breaks some usage guidelines..
It seems it's not using ChatGPT but rather the "standard" GPT-3 models, which do have an API. I didn't look at the code, but they explicitly mention the need for an OpenAI API key.

Performance with auto transmission says less about the driver but more about the tech team. And yes, the point of these racing regulations is to make it at least optically a driver skill competition, not just who can throw more money at a pretty mundane challenge of getting from A to B the fastest. (If not for those regulations, since the track is known to the centimeter, the fastest driver would probably be the ligh…

That's what makes them the mundane parts.

#57That's a really neat idea! I built askai ( https://github.com/maxvfischer/askai ) during the last week to scratch a similar itch of mine. I wanted to be able to quickly get CLI commands that I didn't have on top of mind, by being able to ask questions like "How do you remove a conda environment?" or "How do you get the MX record of a domain using the terminal?". The CLI I built is a direct integration with GPT3, so i…
Here's the one I built:
Get an OpenAI API key. Then `npm i -g askleo` and set env var OPENAI_API_KEY
`> askleo how large is the average dog`
`> runleo list files in reverse date order`
Note that runleo just executes it without confirmation.

#58Half of the fun of using cli is using it with your own knowledge imo. Using GPT3 makes it feel like I may as well use some GUI tool. I understand gpt3 will/does save time and money but I actually like to code and to use my skills and knowledge to build and solve thingswith my own hands. Maybe I'm an outlier here, but using some tool to do it for me doesn't sound like fun.
I'm with you most of the time... but there are some commands that refuse to stick in my brain no matter how hard I try, and I get tired of looking them up

The killer app for LLMs will finally be able to write ffmpeg invocations
It worked for the couple basic cases I tried!!

if you pass `--model=chatgpt` there's experimental support for ChatGPT, but it's suuuper flaky
