As someone with access to the Air Force Donovan LLM tools with Scale, I personally think their SKD (Sentient Killer Drones) tool is one to keep an eye on for the future. Imagine Sydney but she's mad at you and she knows where you live and she's embodied in a high tech drone packed with explosives.

Is this for real? They called it a Sentient Killer Drone?

Yes and it's confusing because there's a SKD SDK (sentient killer drone software development kit) to integrate with the larger platform that includes the telemetry, prioritized missions, battle space sensor network, and the LLL (life-long learning) module.

Am I the only one who isn't using ChatGPT on a regular basis? Though I've made a few attempts to use it, generally I already know the answers to most trivial questions.

I've tried! I want it to fix issues for me in the code. I would love for it to answer questions. But I use it very seldom because it kind of sucks.

Mostly same experience here. However there are a few things I did it worked kinda well for:

- Suggesting and writing YouTube shorts scripts about facts. However these turned out very sensationalised and less factual.

- I have a website with categories based on real world things. In the past I paid hundreds of dollars for mediocre short descriptions. With ChatGPT I paid $0.04 for good and long descriptions.

- I experimented with automated blog articles. It doesn't work for me because of their 'morals' but if you write boring articles about non controversial things without any opinions it works better than any (cheap) paid writer I had so far.

So far I haven't had a single coding issue I thought GPT could help me. I don't understand the buzz either.

ChatGPT has zones of competence and your opinion of ChatGPT is likely to be a function of whether or not its competence zones overlap with what you are doing.

Early on, ChatGPT knocked a bunch of highly technical questions I sent it out of the park. It trivially reproduced insight from hours of diving through old forums and gave me further info that eventually proved out. More recently, it has completely hallucinated responses to the last 3 technical questions I gave it in its familiar "invent an API that would be convenient" style. It's the same ChatGPT, but two very different experiences as a function of subject.

It's not necessarily about getting help. For me, at least, it's about speed. It can look things up faster than I can. I can copy/paste/modify the results pretty quickly and every now and then it surprises me with a solution I hadn't thought of.
