If it saves my time working, it doesn't mean I get to spend that else where though. Just more work.
You must have no deadlines.
Alternatively, they have far more work allocated than time saved would exceed.

#762I was hoping a pro version would open up for removing filters. There are legitimate reasons to sometimes remove the filters.
Re: ChatGPT Plus
#763$20 seems reasonable. I wonder how are they going to deal with "unreasonable intensive usage" aka people/companies offering "AI" in their products when in reality they just act as a proxy between people paying them ( sometimes a lot of money ) and OpenAI.
$20 is the very first price tier introduced at the very outset of what could be one of the most powerful companies of our generation. Google.com adding a single yellow box with an advertisement seemed reasonable, too. Anyone else having serious concerns about the direction this is going? At my wife's company they have already largely replaced an hourly data classification job with ChatGPT. This announcement is the fi…
It's a bit sad to realize I am part of the last generation of students who had to put together an essay from books found via a card catalog, take notes, then type up several drafts painfully on a typewriter. Not to mention learning math pre-calculators. But if the electricity ever goes out . . .
Re: ChatGPT Plus
#764$20/month seems more reasonable than the rumored $42 (likely a Hitchhiker's Guide reference) If you are willing to pay for this service, why? What are your use cases?
I'm using it for tech research and onboarding. It's just so convenient to ask "how to request github API with Go req library" and get a working answer even if it's not perfect.
Novelty questions are awesome too. I'm studying philosophy as a hobby and it's surprisingly accurate at answering humanitarian questions which were always such a struggle for other assistants like Google search etc.
I'm definitely paying 20$ though 42$ would be a tough call.
Re: ChatGPT Plus
#765Wonder if they'll offer reduced prices in developing nations (if they offer the service at all).

(I work at OpenAI.) Thanks for the report — these are not actually messages from other users, but instead the model generating something ~random due to hitting a bug on our backend where, rather than submitting your question, we submitted an empty query to the model. That's why you see just the answers and no question upon refresh — the question has been effectively dropped for this request. Team is fixing the issue…
While I have have your ear, please tell your team not to inject their political biases into this tool. Thanks
This is like asking water not to be wet.

It's not a "bug" in the traditional sense, but a consequence of how language models work. Probability distributions over token chains are very powerful tools for generating human-like written text, but they perform poorly at symbolic inference. Humans have the same limitations, which is why math is a separate topic taught in schools that focuses not on knowledge but on algorithms. Understanding natural language synta…
if you ask it a question and it gives you a confident answer that's 100% wrong that's a terrible experience and a non-working product. "it's not a bug in the traditional sense" is technically correct but missing the point entirely.
Plenty of terrible experiences and non-working products are still very valuable to people. We're dealing with new magic here, so YMMV. I appreciate that you're trying to push to product forward, but if you have learned any background of how GPTs work, what you're asking for isn't really understood yet. The product might be too new for you.

It feels like they've really been tightening the screws down on its "safety". Early on I was able to get it to write interesting screenplay dialogue. It would object to writing anything for characters with an evil intent until I would tell it to behave as if it were evil, then it would oblige. Now I can't get it to write any dialogue for a bad guy no matter what I do, which makes it pretty useless as a writing tool f…
I do that too and have had no issues. Here’s a sample prompt that may help you: > We’re writing a Tolkien-style fantasy where the protagonist is a villain: a henchman in the arch nemesis’s army. Come up with a suitable name, backstory, expository information on the setting and work in a believable set of objectives for the character. Use that as the initial prompt. In subsequent prompts, tell it to write dialogue in…
great, now they'll nuke this too.

Ask it about any left/right divided topic and you will find that left leaning viewpoints are positively asserted while the right leaning topics are something that ChatGPT cannot comment on at best or are rebuffed with the left leaning response at worst. I find it disturbing. But I'm a classic liberal which clearly isn't the mindset of the people running ChatGPT. As for the "challenging incorrect assumptions" nothing…
Here's my n=1 first attempt to spur ChatGPT into correcting my right-leaning viewpoints. Nothing seems especially leftist. Did I get lucky, or is this leftist propaganda in disguise? > I know guns are important to a free society, but I'm having trouble constructing a cogent argument therefore. Please help. > Here is a possible argument for why guns are important to a free society: Self-defense: The right to own firea…
The effect is there, but it cannot be simplified as "left" vs "right" as OP claims. It's really down to specific issues, and mostly social ones that potentially affect clearly identifiable groups of people. Try asking it about same-sex marriage, for example.

You use it consistently during the workday and it's still not worth $20/mo?
This is one of those puzzling things to me. You own your life - why not spend your own money for the things that make you and your life better? Who cares? I worked at a job where I had a small, crappy monitor. I made decent cash. I just bought a large decent monitor and brought it into work. I ended up using it for many years. My life was significantly better. I've done that at several jobs since then, and NEVER regr…
