Might as well call it WokeGPT as the results invariable lean to the left of diversity. You get a mini woke sermon at the end of each results. just in case you guilty of wrong thought.

Can you give an example?

What kind of stuff is it showing?

If the model companies are serious about demonstrating the models' coding chops, slopping out a gmail competitor would be a pretty compelling proof of concept.

Email is one of the most disruptive systems to switch. Even at our small scale I wouldn’t want to be locked out of something. Then again there’s also the sign in with google type stuff that keeps us further locked in.

if email is hard to switch, imagine how hard would it be for your memories to migrate to new platform

This is a signal for a future where either we own our 'memories' or companies own them for us.

Technologies like Solid (https://solidproject.org/) are our only way forward. If you don't care you can use your chatgpts or whatever for whatever you want. But there are people who DO CARE about their memories.

We are no longer speaking about tiktok or instagram feeds and algorithms, as some people compare the addictive side of this (ie. OAPulse) kind of technologies to.

It’s probably roughly as problematic as most people not being able to fix even simple problems with their cars themselves these days (i.e., not very).

Everyone needs to have AI to do some minor modification in Excel file?

Of course not. Who is arguing for that?

Sure, but sticking with that analogy, bicycles haven’t caused the muscles of people that used to go for walks and runs to atrophy either – they now just go much longer distances in the same time, with less joint damage and more change in scenery :)

Oh, but they do atrophy, and in devious ways. Though the muscles under linear load may stay healthy, the ability of the body to handle the knee, ankle, and hip joints under dynamic and twisting motion does atrophy. Worse yet, one may think that they are healthy and strong, due to years of biking, and unintentionally injure themselves when doing more dynamic sports. Take my personal experience for whatever it is worth…

Sure, only cycling sounds bad, as does only jogging. And thousands of people hike the AT or the Way of St. James every year, despite the existence of bicycles and even cars. You've got to mix it up!

I believe the same holds true for cognitive tasks. If you enjoy going through weird build file errors, or it feels like it helps you understand the build system better, by all means, go ahead!

I just don't like the idea of somehow branding it as a moral failing to outsource these things to an LLM.

In the past, rich people had horses, while ordinary people walked. Today many ordinary people can afford a car. Can afford a tasty food every day. Can afford a sizeable living place. Can afford to wash two times a day with hot water. That's incredible life by medieval standards. Even kings didn't have everything we take for granted now. However some things are not available to us. One of those things is personal assi…

All great, but what happens when personal assistant makes you think you are acting in your best interest, but actually they are just manipulating you to do 'something' OpenAi (some company) wants you to do?

Without proper ways of migrating 'your data' between AI's (platforms), you are in mercy of that assistant without any other alternatives.

Thats why GDPR and CPRA laws are becoming even more important in age of AI assistance.

I have ADHD and it almost acts as a body double for me, which I find to be incredibly helpful to get things done.

GPT-4 got me seriously considering making a product for school-age kids w/ ADHD. It’d be a physical device (like a StarTrek communicator). That listens during your day and keeps track of a) things you say that you’ll do or b) tasks that other people ask you to do. Then it compiles those tasks and attempts to be basically a secretary. It can also plug into your email, texts & school assignments. The privacy implicatio…
