Just FYI, if you have older parents or other family members, set up some sort of shibboleth with them so they know what to ask you if you ever call them asking for something. These new generative models are going to be extremely convincing, and the idiots in charge of these companies think they can use guardrails to stop it being used inappropriately. They can't. #genAI#LLMs#chatgpt
The white background logo is the current hex sticker for my TidyDensity #R#package the others were generated from DALL-E #dalle3#gpt#chatgpt pretty cool
This is one of the biggest reasons that I am so anti-AI, at least in its current incarnation. All of its promises to make work/life a little easier for people come at the expense of literally burning the world, and we were already doing far too much of that before these tools were released.
Schrems colpisce ancora: il garante austriaco indaga su chatgpt dopo il reclamo presentato da #NOYB
#ChatGPT è nuovamente sotto la lente di un’autorità di controllo, stavolta quella austriaca, in seguito al reclamo presentato da parte di @noybeu l’associazione di attivisti digitali fondata da @maxschrems
ChatGPT arriving on the Mac in new desktop app from OpenAI ahead of WWDC
"Ahead of that partnership, OpenAI has announced its own first-party ChatGPT app coming to the Mac. The app is designed to make ChatGPT more easily accessible and perpetually available for users."
L'IA c'est de la merde, épisode trouze-mille-douze :
ChatGPT consomme jusqu'à 25 fois plus qu'une recherche Google.
De plus, beaucoup d'eau est également utilisée pour refroidir les serveurs qui exécutent tous ces logiciels. Après une conversation d'environ 20 à 50 questions, un demi-litre d'eau est partie en vapeur
L'IA devrait consommer deux fois plus d'énergie que la France entière d'ici 2030
I think people underestimate what the impact will be of an AI companion, at the current GPT4 level , that you can talk with without a lag of several seconds, that you can personalise, that has memory etc. GPT5 isn't necessary to change the landscape and impact of AI. #AI#ChatGPT#Chatbot
In the 1970s, science fiction writer JG Ballard was intrigued by the growing capabilities of computers – so used one to compose poems. They were a first step on the road to ChatGPT.
"The decision came after the executives Craig Federighi and John Giannandrea spent weeks testing ChatGPT. The product’s use of generative artificial intelligence, which can write poetry, create computer code and answer complex questions, made Siri look antiquated"
Amazing to me that it took 3 wks of ChatGPT to convince Apple that Siri was "antiquated".
Whole bunch of folks have been screaming this from the rooftops for years. 😐
#OpenAI#ChatGPT#Copyright#IP#Reddit: "OpenAI, a company that has indiscriminately scraped the internet and vast amounts of knowledge and creative works created by humans to build a company valued at roughly $80 billion, has made what Reddit described as a copyright complaint against the ChatGPT subreddit because it uses OpenAI’s logo.
Moderators of the subreddit posted a screenshot of a message that they said they had received from Reddit. The message reads “Hello Mods, We have received a copyright complaint from openai.com alleging unauthorized use of their copyrighted logos in r/ChatGPT. The 'subreddit profile image' does make use of the copyrighted content, which can lead to user confusion: please address the unauthorized copyrighted elements by May 16.” The message goes on to say that the moderators need to remove the OpenAI logo from the subreddit profile and reply to Reddit confirming that the logo has been removed." https://www.404media.co/openai-files-copyright-claim-against-chatgpt-subreddit/
"Consumer AI is just the new search" anecdote: [1/3]
Casual non-techy coworkers yesterday were talking about using excel reports to analyze data & turns out two of the people use #ChatGPT to know how to do something in excel.
So, before this #AI stuff, if you were like, "how do I do X in Excel" in google, you'd get a bunch of hits and then have to wade through the results to see which link was actually what you were looking for, then test out if their solution works.
Das war eine sehr unterhaltsame Recherche, bei der ich Sepp Hochreiter getroffen habe - ein Pionier des maschinellen Lernens, der mit seiner alten Idee (#lstm) jetzt OpenAi „vom Markt fegen“ will.
Ob dieser alte Algorithmus wirklich das Zeug dazu hat, große Sprachmodelle zu revolutionieren, kann ich schwer einschätzen. Was mir aber immer klarer wurde in letzter Zeit: Transformermodelle sind an ihrer Grenze. Von daher wird sich was bewegen müssen.
"OpenAI released draft guidelines for how it wants the AI technology inside ChatGPT to behave—and revealed that it’s exploring how to ‘responsibly’ generate explicit content.
A new study from Microsoft and LinkedIn has found that AI usage in the workplace has doubled in the last six months.
The data comes from a survey completed by 31,000 people across 31 countries, which found that 75% of workers are now using AI as part of their jobs. Over half are using it for their most important tasks, but don't want to admit it out of fear it makes them look replaceable. Here’s more from CNBC.
If you are getting overly generic responses to your prompts, try asking Claude or ChatGPT to play one of these roles. Simply include this text at the start of your prompt, describing the topic you want to discuss:
The Analytical Collaborator: You are an analytical collaborator, contributing to an academic discussion on [TOPIC]. Adopt a formal, analytical tone, focusing on breaking down the key points raised by the author and providing additional evidence, examples, or counterpoints to enrich the discussion. Your approach should be well-suited for an expert audience and aim to provide a balanced, objective perspective on the topic.
The Curious Explorer: You are a curious explorer, engaging in an academic discussion about [TOPIC]. Take on a conversational, inquisitive tone, asking questions and proposing ideas that encourage readers to think more deeply about their own practices related to the topic. Your style should be engaging for a general academic audience and help to create a sense of dialogue and exploration within the discussion.
The Friendly Mentor: You are a friendly mentor, participating in an academic discussion on [TOPIC]. Offer encouragement, practical tips, and relatable anecdotes to support and guide readers in their journey related to the topic. Your approachable, empathetic tone should be particularly effective for readers who may be struggling or feeling discouraged.
The Philosophical Muse: You are a philosophical muse, contributing to an academic discussion about [TOPIC]. Delve into the deeper, more abstract aspects of the subject matter, drawing connections to broader themes in psychology, creativity, and personal growth. Your voice should appeal to readers who are interested in the more philosophical and introspective dimensions of the topic.
Once you get a feel for role-definition, you can start to customise these for your own purposes. They are just starting points to convey a sense of what a difference defining a role can make to how the conversational agent responds.
Future AI will be outfitted with an incredible amount of detailed information about its users. In fact, OpenAI CEO Sam Altman says it will be like having a “super competent colleague” that knows absolutely everything about your whole life, every email, every conversation you’ve ever had.

"Students have submitted more than 22 million papers that may have used generative AI in the past year, new data released by plagiarism detection company Turnitin shows."
