OpenAI has lost two more founders and an executive — president and cofounder Greg Brockman, cofounder John Schulman, and product leader Peter Deng. [The Information, paywalled] Brockman was previou…
Honestly it has become pretty crappy. Well over a year ago it was actually useful. I imagine it’s due to EU law, but it could just as well be a failure in leadership.
It repeats itself continously, even when specifically asked not to. And it just doesn’t come up with interesting stuff any more. I consider canceling my subscription regularly.
I should add that I’ve built stuff on top of it and it was quite exciting. Now I am just curious about future foss solutions to get back to experimenting for real.
it’s not like things like this haven’t been posted consistently since chatgpt started on the scene
oh no, wait, I meant the other thing. the one where it’s always been this awful dogshit.
“imagine it’s due to eu law” what the FUCK? I’ve seen some wild takes but wow, you’ve just strength-hammered the shit out of the fair bell in a way I haven’t seen in a while
Don’t you know? The directive of redundancy directive requires that human-facing software products continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes. This supersedes earlier regulation, which allowed human-facing software products to not continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes if the user verbally requests the human-facing software products to not continuously reiterate themselves for accessibility purposes.
God knows why they decided that this particular EU law is the one they would actually follow.
new electronics design standard everyone! no more need for EDA sims, we can just ask this clever poster for verification! progress! i’m sure it’ll be perfectly fine!
True, but it’s recently crossed the pond to Silicon Valley. I think it was when the DMA affected Apple that a lot of hackernews became EU regulation experts and started grappling with the fact that laissez-faire is seen as a dirty word in the country where it originated.
Do any “ai” companies have a business plan more sophisticated than
steal everything on the web
buy masses of compute with vc money
become too important to be busted for mass copyright infringement
?
profit
I don’t recall seeing any signs of creativity, or even any good ideas as to what their product is even for, so I wouldn’t hold my breath waiting for one of the current crop to manifest creativity now.
AFAICT basically all of them failed at the “become too important to be busted for mass copyright infringement” part - turns out actively stealing from some of the most litigious and DMCA-happy motherfuckers on the planet was an easy way to get mired in lawsuits.
Bonus points for becoming essentially a money pinata for their lawyers in the process.
I get your point but I feel it goes a tad bit too far. It’s like that now, but it used to have the capability to adapt well and also come up with original ways of combining things. I actively leveraged that capability for my library. Rn it’s unfortunately on pause due to the regression, at least within the NL/EU.

i have to admit i’m deeply curious what outputs you considering interesting enough for twenty bucks a month
love how they edited their comment to be “more specific” and just made it even worse
you’re learning from an autocomplete
Oh? Well I’ll be sure to tell the three electronics experts who validated my design based entirely off what I’ve learned from gpt4.
you just really don’t get it, do you?
thanks to the EU, those three electronics experts are now 1.5 door-to-door vacuum cleaner salespeople
I’m satisfied with the design and the sparring we’ve done.

Yeah this one is pretty annoying
“It’s bad because of EU regulation” is the new “it’s bad because it’s woke”.
@gerikson @techtakes I think you’ll find Boris Johnson pioneered that one in the early 1990s.

Was that before or after hairdressers gave up on him?
I actually appreciate the EU regulations. The real question is whether companies are creative enough to come up with new solutions that fit.

Perhaps I missed something, though?

you appear to be lost, this isn’t “sama stan club”
and by library I hope you don’t mean a place of knowledge other humans rely on
