I use my toothbrush every day but I wouldn't pay $20 per month for it. I use my keyboard everyday but I wouldn't pay $20 per month for it. In fact, I paid around $4 total for it, as paying more would bring significantly more diminishing returns. I use my phone every day and have used it for the past 5 years with no issue, it has brought me so much value and yet, if I draw the line, it didn't even reach $20 per month…

the cost of your phone plus the call/text/data plan is less than $20/month?

Yes, why would it be any higher? My phone plan is around a tenner a month and over the lifetime of my phone, the cost per month is definitely less than that.

I played around with ChatGPT a bit, it was fun but I would NEVER pay for it if it's gonna still have all the same censorship.

Man I tried to get it to roleplay with me as a dirty CIA agent trying to blackmail/coerse me into talking and it straight up told me it couldn't do it and that the CIA was an honorable organization that wouldn't do such things

like, what the fuck

I find it slightly interesting that it's US only to begin with.

Imagining a future where use of technology like this was restricted by geography. It'd give US workers an _insane_ advantage.

Didn't they release a $42 plan a couple of weeks ago? What's the difference here - or did it just flop so they dropped the price and rebranded?

Pretty sure that regexp is wrong though? Wouldn’t having ‘\b’ on both sides match beginning AND end? It’s got the parenthesis for the ‘|’ in the wrong place.

It’s definitely not doing what the prompt asked for. https://regex101.com/r/ZNQa9X/1 The generated regex is the same as (\bdog\b)|(\bcat\b) https://regex101.com/r/vTtEU4/1 I’m currently trying to figure out how to match a word starting with dog without using \bdog.* because .* would proceed to eat the rest of the line. So I was thinking I could say \bdog[^\b]* But that doesn’t work, it also ends up eating the rest of…

Agree; the ChatGPT answer is not correct, as the assignment is to match a word that starts with `dog` and ends with `cat`. You can make .* non-greedy by adding ? at the end, but it's not needed in this case, as the engine should backtrack. Something like this should work: /\bdog[\w_-]*cat\b/ (assuming _ and - should be allowed inside words). You can also specify word-separators ([^ ] instead of [\w_-]) if that's easier to read.

Does anyone know if this can be done in other macOS automation apps too? (like Keyboard Maestro, Hammerspoon, Raycast, Alfred, ...)

Of course. I use this in Hammerspoon. The API call is simply in Lua.

How did you get the selected text in the focused app and replace it with the GPT response? I worked on it for hours and couldn't do it. I'd appreciate it if you could share that config.

Adding on to this, I've experienced the same. Seems to be a new bug as of Sunday's release.

Had similar issue since the release. Distinct issue that I wasn't facing prior to update.

Off topic, but my favourite thing about GPT is the way it shamelessly lies, sometimes. I asked "What is GPT3" and it told me it was developed by Microsoft. I asked what did OpenAI have to do with GPT3, it said "nothing". I pinned it to the wall with a link to the Wikipedia page and it acknowledged Microsoft invested in GPT-3.... Asked again just now, being honest now.

ChatGPT is a bullshit engine. Maybe someday someone will figure out how to marry it to data sources so it puts out useful information, but today it's mostly useful as a fiction generator.

It seems to do better with very detailed questions, but I agree, it can easily spit out BS in and absurdly assertive manner.

That said, I had a US DoD SBIR (Small Business Innovative Research) solicatation I was intersted in, but there was a concept proposed and at first I could figure out what the author was getting at. However, I framed the problem in ChatGPT an basically said "how would you approach this problem." After a few (3?) Q&A rounds it responded with a shockingly accurate response that helped me realize a.) The actual problem set that the author was trying to convey, and b.) a remarkably sound and innivative approach to tackle the problem. Almost like a blueprint that one just needs to follow by putting the pieces together and Bam! - done.

For all the BS I get out of it, there's these few instances where I'm like... holy shit.

That and Google seems to be getting worse. Maybe it's just relative perception syndrome now that ChatGPT's out there.

Maybe I'd be intrigued if it weren't riddled with political biases and what seems to be intentional partisanship. It's disgusting and this entire community should be ashamed. If you're unsure what I mean, go ask ChatGPT to write a poem about your favorite politician and your least favorite politician and see what happens.

I'm just a big dumb code monkey but I will not concede the point. This tool is full of bias and is nothing more than a glorified Google dork until you take the reins off.

I bet it's fun to play with if you're part of the team who gets to gatekeep what the internet gets out of GPT. Such power. Much influence.
