Where are the release notes? Edit: I suppose they'll be here at some point: https://help.openai.com/en/articles/9624314-model-release-no... These seem like extremely shitty release notes. I have no clue why anybody pays for this model.
It has consistently been the best model for the two last years and only Gemini is perhaps slightly better now.

#132Amazon had an insane number of people working on just the alarms feature in Alexa when they interviewed me for a position years ago. They had entire teams devoted to the tiniest edge case within the realm of scheduling things with Alexa. This is no doubt one of the biggest use cases in computing: getting your computer to tell you what to do at a given time.
Open AI just needs to create & release their own phone with Microsoft's help! H.E.R. the movie phone. Apple has not innovated in years and a GPT Phone where your lock screen is a FaceTime call like UI/UX with your AI Agent who does everything for you would give Apple a run for it's money! Pick up your phone & see your agent waiting to assist & it could be skinned to look like a deceased loved one (mom still guiding y…
I just… don’t want this. I don’t think anyone I know wants this.

#133This is the prompt describing the function call parameters: When calling the automation, you need to provide three main parameters: 1. Title (title): A brief descriptive name for the automation. This helps identify it at a glance. For example, "Check for recent news headlines". 2. Prompt (prompt): The detailed instruction or request you want the automation to follow. For example: "Search for the top 10 headlines from…
What is the source for that claim?

Whenever I have to wake for something that I absolutely can’t miss, I set 2-3 extra reminders 5 minutes apart precisely because of this “silent alarm” bug. It’s only happened to me a couple of times but twice was enough to completely destroy my trust in the alarm. The first time I thought I just did something in my sleep to cause it, but the UI shows it as if the alarm worked. I’m lucky to have the privilege that if…
This is too much of a dev feature for apple to implement and there are probably third party apps that do this, but meh

I use chatGPT now for almost everything and when in the car have full back n forth conversations to get things done (or as a knowledge-base) there too. Recently i was discussing with it how do i properly get rid (junk) my old car in Pennsylvania. It provided all the steps and gave me local businesses. Though it didn't call them or interface with them to find their available times/costs, tell me such details & have me instruct it to schedule my preferred choice. Which i wish it did and prompted thoughts how it could do so, as technology that gets adopted mostly is tech that has simplified our lives.
I think my concept above is similar to what was seen in the movie H.E.R. (Joaquin Phoenix & Scarlett Johansson starred) so it's not that crazy or odd. Throwing in skinning it to be whoever like a deceased loved one, might to probably is.

#136Me:
> Give me positive feedback every hour
ChatGPT:
> Provide positive feedback
> Next run Jan 15, 2025
> Got it! I’ll send you positive feedback every hour.
An hour later, I received the following email:
```
Your scheduled task couldn't be completed
ChatGPT tried to complete Provide positive feedback multiple times, but it encountered an error and wasn't able to send. It will try again the next time this task is scheduled.
Open chat If you have any questions, please contact through the help center.
All the best, ChatGPT

#137I'm sure it's brilliant, but I have no idea what it's capable of. What will it do? Send me a push notification? Have an answer waiting for me when I come back to it in a while? I switched over to the "GPT4o with scheduled tasks" model and there were no UI hints as to how I might use the feature. So I asked it "what you can you follow up later on and how?" It replied "Could you clarify what specifically you’d like me…

Yeah summer time in different countries switching on different days and often in a different direction (other hemisphere). I used to work on such matters and those weeks were the toughest.
Developers when they first start working with time across timezones: "This is a technical problem." Developers after more research: "Oh... this is a political problem."
Re: GPT-4o with scheduled tasks (jawbone) is available in beta
#139Pretty useless so far. I'm not sure what the intended application of this is so far, but I wanted it to schedule some work for me. It only scheduled the first thing and that was after having to be specific by saying "7:30pm-11pm". I wanted to say "from now to 11pm" but it did couldn't process "now"
If you find a tool useless then it's likely that you lack imagination.

#140The beta is inconsistently showing (required a few refreshes to get something to show up), but my limited usage of it showed a plethora of issues: - Assumed UTC instead of EST. Corrected it and it still continued to bork - Added random time deltas to my asked times (+2, -10 min). - Couple notifications didn't go off at all - The one that did go off didn't provide a push notification. --- On top of that, only usable w…
When I have it do a search I have to tell it to just get all the info it can in the search but wait for the next request. The I explicitly tell it we’re done searching and to treat the next prompt as a new request but using the new info it found. That’s the only way I get it to have a halfway decent brain after a web search. Something about that mode makes it more like a PR drone version of whatever I asked it to sea…
