You realize that near human-level AI for $20/month is a bargain in a country where typical mobile phone plan is $25+, and is basically universally affordable?

> You realize that near human-level AI for $20/month is a bargain ChatGPT isn't remotely “near human-level AI”, though.

Uhh have you used it? It's pretty close. Its not always correct but neither are humans.its generally pretty correct and extremely fast.

Is there never going to be a version with less restrictions and filters? That would really be worth paying for.

You can downvote me here for a promo, but by using gpt3 directly you can bypass all the restrictions. Thats one of the reasons we built writingmate.ai (often outages of GPT3 being the second reason)

They still flag ToS violations, and I'm pretty sure if you hit them enough, they do ban you.

I have the appropriate response to this. It’s available in my brand new service: Answer Plus. You really should subscribe!

How does your "Answer Plus" compare with "Solution Pro"?

The latter has "contact us for pricing".

> including software highly unlikely. You should be concerned if you are just plumbing between different software stacks, but even that is likely hard to fully automate.

You underestimate how powerful it already is. Have you tried Copilot or coding with ChatGPT? If this is the very first iteration it won't be long before many developers are fully replaced.

People are seriously in denial about how powerful this is. As you said this is just the beginning

The few times chatgpt has not been at capacity it has given me wrong answers. I'll keep my $20.

You can't have used it much or intentionally baited it to prove your preconceived notion that ChatGPT sucks.

ChatGPT is pretty damn good at anything creative, but for hard-truth questions it's eh at best. Which is quite ironic when you think about what we imagined Robots would end up like.

Btw, I just asked ChatGPT to give me a list of five-letter words that a child could draw. At one point it conceded that it's suggested words were indeed not five letters long, but it couldnt correct it's error. To tie back into the point I made above: All of the suggested words were actually good choices (creative), they just werent five letters long (truth)

I've been using ChatGPT pretty consistently during the workday and have found it useful for open ended programming questions, "cleaning up" rough bullet points into a coherent paragraph of text, etc. $20/month useful is questionable though, especially with all the filters. My "in between" solution has been to configure BetterTouchTool (Mac App) with a hotkey for "Transform & Replace Selection with Javascript". This i…

You use it consistently during the workday and it's still not worth $20/mo?

Right? $1/workday and you still get to use it evenings and weekends. No wonder b2b is the way.

This is one of those puzzling things to me.

You own your life - why not spend your own money for the things that make you and your life better?

Who cares?

I worked at a job where I had a small, crappy monitor. I made decent cash. I just bought a large decent monitor and brought it into work. I ended up using it for many years. My life was significantly better. I've done that at several jobs since then, and NEVER regretted it, in fact it was one of the soundest decisions I've ever made. Also keyboard and mouse.

There are so many people using the default keyboard, the default monitor, the default tools.

If you push work to do it for you, you need to challenge the "everone gets a dell 19" monitor" b.s. If you push your boss, he might have to do justification paperwork.

Just become what you are.

I had a partner that was being charged about 8k$ to solve a ruby problem that copilot answered with a couple of prompts (took a couple of hours but still..) I'm pretty certain that unless you are in machine learning, your job will be replaced soon enough

It seems likely that the nature of a programmer will change. You will just be wiring things together and fixing bugs.

Eventually ai will do that too but it'll be a few years. Still, the writing is on the wall

Premium pricing. I would have been okay with $10/mo, this is pushing it. Let's see how long this lasts and whether they'll introduce a lower tier.
