This ChatGPT/AI thing kind of freaks me out the more I peek at it. I think what I am beginning to realize is that, regardless of what you think of ChatGPT right now, we've only just scratched the surface. We're standing here poking at this new and curious thing. I'm thinking back to when I first fired up NCSA Mosaic on a Mac Quadra (or whatever). What did I think of this World Wide Web? Did I immediately see the disa…

Well said, everything that we are worried about right now in regards to the impacts of AI will most likely be irrelevant in a decade

It's silly that you can't even see what these things can do without having a $20/mo subscription. They have one line descriptions for each one, but it doesn't really tell you what it actually does. They need to add a feature list and provide some examples for each one of these. There is zero reason for anyone to start a new subscription when you don't even know what the app does.

ChatGPT+ is so very ridiculously valuable I'm shocked people still complain about it costing $20 a month. I would still pay for ChatGPT+ at $200 a month because it saves me so much time. If you're a knowledge worker in a modern economy, I can all but guarantee you're penny-wise but pound-foolish not paying for it. I think this is proof no matter how little you charge people, they will always complain -- so ignore the…

But, you can get API access for GTP 4.x and use it in your own workflows. And those workflows may contain tooling and info which you can't provide at ChatGPT. Maybe it's still worth paying $20 / month for, but I also haven't used ChatGPT for months.

AI will ruin the internet and it will be extremely difficult to filter out bots, that's my prediction

Or, just maybe, AGI is a mirage with the bulk of its current utility as a marketing tool for much more realistic, if ultimately mundane, applications. OpenAI, of course, knows this.

Why are so many HN commenters like this

Yeah... up until now, we've had the privilege of trusting that everyone "on the wire" speaking "our protocol" is a conscious being, deserving (at least in theory) of our time and respect in return for their own.

No longer.

It's going to get weird.

I hope they don't lose focus on their only moat: ChatGPT+ It's been running quite slow with a lot of fails lately, sometimes it downrights invites you to do the research yourself! Screw that one up, and I walk... openzephyrchat-v0.2.Q5_K_M.gguf and speechless-code-mistral-7b-v1.0.Q5_K_M.gguf have been really excellent to work with for most of my use cases.

Running an app store for consumers just seems wayyyy off course from their stated goal of building AGI. Running any kind of two-sided marketplace with paying customers is quite a big undertaking, I just can't see how this is the best use of their resources and attention if they want to pursue their mission.

If they want to learn how it's going to fuck over society (even if they want to avoid that) it makes some weird sort of sense to be the ones applying the breaking pressure. Assuming good faith, this is where they'd best learn how to avoid the pitfalls.

I'm not sure assuming good faith is the right approach tho

I tried a couple of them but they are not great. For example, I tried the AllTrails GPT and asked it to suggest a 5km walk near my suburb. This should have been an easy answer since there is a nice 5km that I can find on the AllTrails map which is right next to my suburb. But it suggested a walk that would take me 45 minutes to drive to. Interestingly, I asked the exact same question to the regular ChatGPT and it cor…

I saw that advertised on the Store homepage but really wondered why you need an LLM for that. Top X walks from a destination with desired length and difficulty is all that is needed (a single DB query).

yeah, I agree. Most of the apps I've looked at seem to be fairly low value.

This is a non sequitur. The comment you're responding to isn't complaining about having to pay, or about the amount being too high. It's complaining about having to pay without knowing what you're even getting.

But how is that different to capitalism in general? Isn't every business on Earth doing product discovery for everyone else?

It's different because they're stealing what you discover under the guise of partnership. (Assuming it's true)

That’s bog standard Capitalism from the history of McDonalds to big tech companies doing phony acquisition interviews to steal IP.
