At this point I'd prioritize speed over new capability.

This is very similar to my usage. I'm awful about wiping from my memory every implementation detail unless I work in something every day. awk and sed are great examples, I find them critically important just infrequently enough I barely have any idea how to use them. or the once in 2 years I need to do something complex in a spreadsheet, a natural language description of the problem is easier for me to remember than…

#95I've been using it as an aid in my writing process. Essentially, I can now pour my thoughts onto paper, complete with errors and poor word choices. With just a click, GPT transforms it into a presentable version. Basically I created a small app to streamline the workflow. https://henshu.ai
We are building a GPT integration as well that helps users analyze reviews. Check out our demo https://show.nnext.ai/

#962. Write entire React component. This exercise is actually helping me be more modular in how I design components because if I'm typing out a page long description of the component, I know I should be breaking it down into smaller components.
I also give it name + description of existing component (if it's necessary to build this one), and it figures out exactly how to use it. E.g. assume the following components exist: [Editor ({ content: string, onChange: ()... }), ...]
3. Learning about anything new. My first instinct is to engage with GPT, and only after that Google to find more detailed, opinionated information. This is great for topics that are more objective. I find GPT to be horrible for subjective / less clear questions like: "What is the best career move if my goals are __, and I'm in this situation: ___" - because it will regurgitate the average answer - but not the best one because the mainstream answer to this question is likely more wrong than a contrarian, but more true, answer.

#97My big question is, are people at OpenAI actively using GPT as part of their work? Are they getting a productivity boost because of it?
> We’ve also been using GPT-4 internally, with great impact on functions like support, sales, content moderation, and programming. We also are using it to assist humans in evaluating AI outputs, starting the second phase in our alignment strategy.

#98Earlier quoted context omitted.
Yeah, I have found I need to be careful. When I have used it, there is no confidential information in the email. I do pay attention to that. That said,I think it will be interesting as Microsoft introduces this into Office 365. You bring up a great point. Most people will not realize they are sending potentially confidential information to Microsoft. Perhaps it's no different than Grammarly... But I think you are rig…
They already are. It is 99% stored on a Sharepoint on a Teams site anyways

#99I think all of our stories will look the same, we all ask about small problems, to get an answer as accurate as possible. It did help me in something else. If someone has a weight problem, you can ask ChatGTP to plan you an eating schedule. I've lost 6kg in 2 months now by eating healthy food. If someone is interested what questions I've asked, I've asked ChatGTP to create me a weekly meal schedule, where for my curr…

#100A while back, I mentioned in a thread that I have found ChatGPT to be quite useful for correcting grammar and spelling errors ( https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=34781888 ). Later, when they released their API, I developed a CLI tool for this purpose ( https://github.com/pncnmnp/grammatical ). Note that it is not flawless, but it works well. It has improved my writing productivity, both for blogging and emails.
