Awesome and scary time. AI revolution 1.0 like one day we had Web 1.0?

ChatGPT can't access the external internet. The example ChatGPT instruction where they "teach it" just has the user giving it a URL to their docs and ChatGPT is like "oh ok got it" (Figure 3). I'm not sure if the blog post writers are aware it's hallucinating what the JSON implementation is and hasn't actually read the documentation at all.

Yep. I asked it to summarize a URL. It happily invented something completely fabricated and convincing sounding (until you go to the URL) based of the domain name and article slug.

Today at work I hadnt used apache spark in a long time. I needed to do some quick and dirty data analytics on large datasets. Rather than read documentation, I just put the queries i needed in english into chatGPT, and it spit out perfectly working code. The queries werent that complex, but it saved me hours googling a bunch of random spark SQL syntax.

The old school way is google sends you links, and through those code examples, you build up all the edge cases you need for your code to work.

Thats completely obsolete as a way to synthesize information! Google is going down!

Thanks for reading my daily chat gpt anecdote! Sorry if its irrelevant, I just cant believe how much better it made my day.

we’ve made the startling discovery that we’re rather predictable

I feel like the improvement in ChatGPT is not the "intelligence", but the fact that the number of dimensions (abstract-math-sense) in search input have gone up magnitudes over "old-style" key word searches.

copy.ai's chat bot can read URLs now

Hah. Of course the authors are not aware.

OpenAI handed this tool to people with effectively no guidance or instructions so that they can trade on the glow of misconceptions and harvest user data. The whole point of giving the thing away for free these last few months is to let people make fools of themselves like this while pumping up OpenAI’s value as a technology firm. It’s no accident that they don’t engage to clarify all these persistent misunderstandings.

Wait until how great your day will become when you’re unnecessary ;).
