I like this a lot. I don't use AI a lot and I often find it annoying, so I don't eg feel the need to install the OpenAI mobile app (which I assume exists). Having ChatGPT in my WhatsApp (I live in a place where WhatsApp is everywhere) is a nice middle ground, lets me occasionally ask it stuff without worrying about accounts and projects and models and all that stuff. Cool!
I feel like everyone who has used a lot of AI tools has become accustomed to the LLM yap, but hearing it over TTS is much more annoying than when it's text you can skim through.
Collecting training data to the max.
They are going to collect so much voice training data from this.

So the perception of those aged 50+, is one of people so far removed from technology they’d prefer to use a telephone to avoid their discomfort with computers? I’m well into this group and still make a lot more api calls than phone calls. Fresh out of college I recall vividly thinking, I’ll need to build an impressive list of side projects to overcome preconceptions about how much I can truly offer at my age. Maybe n…
the idea that someone who was 20 in 1995 is too old to be comfortable with computers is a horrifying and offensive stereotype that deeply worries me for my own future our industry is old enough that the first generation of pioneers has died of old age. Do you really think someone who grew up with computers in the 80s is incapable of using a smart phone? These are people who are still in the workforce today. These are…

Controversial take: LLMs are the first time in a while that I have felt like emerging technology trends is doing something cool and adding value. For the past 8-10 years it has all felt like a bunch of apps that just aim to be mediocre middlemen/gig economy brokers with bad customer service.
I agree about an abundance of apps, but what type of value are LLMs adding? It can sometimes be useful to input a more "human" search and have something get spit out but 60% of the time it completely lies to you. I'm talking about questions related to web specifications which are public documents. Section numbers, standards names, etc.. will be completely made up.
chatGPT: ~ This may be recorded... chatGPT: ~ You agree to openai terms and conditions... Me: What's the square root of two? chatGPT: What number do you want to know the square root of? Me: Two chatGPT: The square root of ten is approximately 3.1... If they wanted to show how very non-understanding and un-intelligent chatGPT is, they are doing a great job. So much quicker to see in a voice interaction than through on…
100% shipped to show off to family during Christmas. I'll definitely give it a go, I wonder if this lands better with those aged 50+ who are more used to phone calls rather than chat.

Umm... do you actually know anyone 50+? You know, for instance, the co-authors of "AI: A Modern Approach" are both 50+?
