Looks like the position AI can fill best is âidiot coworker whose best contribution to overall productivity is to call in sickâ.
As much as I hate for Musk to have any kind of a win, I think this is probably still good news overall. It was ridiculous that OpenAI (or any company, really) would have ever been allowed to restructure from a non-profit to a for-profit entity. Thereâs a good reason that the California AG was investigating this proposal. But this is also good because I want OpenAI to crash and burn before they get any bigger and do more planet-burning shit than theyâve already done. SoftBankâs much-touted $40B investment (which OpenAI needs badly) was partially contingent on them converting to a for-profit, so interesting times are ahead!
Definitely looking forward to seeing Ed Zitronâs take because he understands this way better than I do.
Looks like there were a quite a lot of pictures of espresso machines in the training data.
So their in-house testing already identified the update as being a problem, but they went ahead and released the update anyway. Now theyâre saying that in the future theyâre âformally consideringâ having the potential to block updates if issues are found? Sounds like some top-notch, confidence-inspiring quality control.
As for the sycophantic behavior of ChatGPT, maybe that explains a lot about what all those AI executives are up to. You know that theyâre constantly getting validation from their own product telling them how awesome they are at their jobs and what great businesses decisions theyâre making.
Once Joel tried this with Servo and Crow. He found their behavior immediately annoying. When will we ever learn?
