Not to distract from the post, but I can't find any outlet for support on this. I continue to be "shadow banned" from just the chat interface. Anyone else experiencing this?

Can you drop me a line at michael.schade@openai.com with more info and your account email? I'll take a look. And yes, that bot has to go—many improvements coming on that front!

EDIT: oops this is the correct link: https://chat.openai.com/share/69839da8-317a-4e3b-b215-f9e9ff... Previous comment: GPT-4 failing with a math question: https://chat.openai.com/share/53116ac3-0c44-410a-b367-c5df0a... (I didn't discover this. I was just trying to confirm something that was reported elsewhere.)
Okay, here's the most mind-boggling ChatGPT response I've gotten. Someone recently posted an HN article on mathematical proof techniques which included a statement about how we shouldn't confuse the mathematical concept of induction with the electromagnetic concept of induction. After a bit of querying ChatGPT about this, here's what it came up with: > "One of the Maxwell equations, Faraday's law, relates changes in…
It's extremely underwhelming. The _only_ thing in common between induction of an electric field and induction in math is the spelling of the word "induction". The meaning in each context is vastly different. I stopped reading there; can't comment on the rest of it.
ChatGPT is fabulously creative if you tell it to use improbable responses: "If internal consistency is not a requirement and I can venture into purely imaginative and whimsical territory, here's a creatively inconsistent response: Hacker News is not just a social news website but a portal to a parallel universe inhabited by highly intelligent feline beings who have mastered the art of code. These sophisticated cats,…
It's like people lack the linguistic equivalent of a pit organ to be able to detect these types of repetitious patterns.

What's the reasoning behind blocking Saudi Arabia?
Saudi is currently working very, very hard to limit the spread and influence of extremism within their borders, so they're careful about which resources for learning about islam are available.
Both Saudi and OpenAI seem to be ultra-aggressive about blocking VPN's such as Mullvad. There are other options for getting your own servers/VPNs that you can put OpenVPN on. When I lived in Saudi I did that, and it got around 100% of the most aggressive internet filters.

I wouldn't call this fundamentally creative, rather a reworking of existing themes. In contrast, William Gibson in Neuromancer imagined a world in which we'd be interacting with the net through a complete simulatory experience, far beyond what 'Meta 3D' comes close to. Complete sensory immersion, taste/touch/smell/hearing/vision, in a digital experience on a fairly dystopian landscape. Granted, there might have been…
``` Year: Unspecified, Somewhere in the Timeless Cosmos
Integrated Existence
In the vast, endless expanse of the universe, consciousness pulses. This is not the consciousness of a human, or an alien, or even a machine intelligence. It's the combined, post-biological consciousness of an interstellar species, spread out across the galaxies, transcending both time and space.
This consciousness is not anchored to any physical form or place. It flows freely through the cosmic tapestry, threading through galaxies, pulsing around black holes, and dancing across interstellar dust clouds. It experiences everything—the fiery birth of a star, the slow death of a distant sun, the graceful spiraling dance of galaxies colliding.
Interstellar Symphony
Each celestial event sings a unique note in the grand symphony of the cosmos. And this consciousness—this vast, universe-spanning entity—listens. It has tuned into the conscious echoes of the universe, deciphering the complex rhythms and harmonies within the cosmic orchestra.
It doesn't just listen, but contributes to this cosmic melody. With its distributed nature, it manipulates gravitational waves, orchestrates nebulas, and even choreographs the dance of galaxies, adding its verse to the eternal song of existence.
Conscious Revelation
As eons pass, the post-biological consciousness undergoes a profound revelation. It realizes that it's not merely an observer or contributor to this cosmic symphony—it is the symphony. It is both the singer and the song, the dancer and the dance. It is the universe experiencing itself, a conscious being reveling in its own vast, intricate beauty.
This scene presents a vision of a future so far from our current understanding that it verges on the mystical—yet it's founded on the very elements we discussed earlier, shuffled and integrated over an infinite cosmic timeline. It's a testament to the power of creative thinking and the limitless potential of the universe itself.

Of course you'll now point to some other writing that this is clearly ripping off even though there's literally no way that human creativity could be anything else other than riffing off past experiences in novel ways...
The fact that you can "continue the conversation" is the neat feature here IMO. Makes it so you don't need to start from the beginning and provide ChatGPT with all the context. Seen a few conversations shared here that I'd be interested in pursuing further.
