No need for that. Just like you would use a calculator/computer to solve algorithmic problems so will AI in the future. Doing mental math is slow and inefficient, our own brains prove it. OTOH, using implicit extensions to do it will make GPT do things previously unimaginable.

Because most of the stuff isn't in the public due to being impractical.
I mean, lots of revolutionary tech is good only on paper. There are fuckton of problems that will appear alongside with that tech. So why not solve the problem completely, with all the secondary stuff (or most of them) first, BEFORE hyping stuff and creating a false hope?

Reply to comment by UpV0tesF0rEvery0ne in Apple gathers over 200 drivers to testing its self-driving car technology by nastratin
A big difference between Apple and Google is that Google tests all it's stuff publically and Apple tests all it's stuff internally. Apple probably has a product graveyard as large as Google's. The difference is that they killed them before they had a chance to disappoint the public.
The thing about innovation is that they have to be pie in the sky ideas. Because if the idea isn't at least a little crazy then it means it makes sense. And if it makes sense, then it means that everyone else is already working on it and you're too late.

It is a little hard to understand you with Elon’s dick in your mouth. My bad.

Reminds me of the scene in Charlie and the Chocolate Factory.
Programmer: Gentlemen, I know how anxious you've all been during these last few days. But now I think I can safely say that your time and money have been well-spent. We're about to witness the greatest miracle of the machine age. Based on the revolutionary Computonian Law of Probability, this machine will tell us the precise location of the three remaining Golden Tickets.
[He pushes buttons on the machine, which prints out a response]
Programmer: It says, "I won't tell. That would be cheating."
[He pushes more buttons on the machine again]
Programmer: I am now telling the computer that if it will tell me the correct answer, I will gladly share with it the grand prize.
[the machine prints out another response]
Programmer: He says: "What would a computer do with a lifetime supply of chocolate?" [getting increasingly agitated, he begins mashing the buttons] I am now telling the computer EXACTLY what he can do with a lifetime supply of chocolate.

According to that recent paper on GPT-4, its pretty good at using this kind of tool. So yes, it will!

Hopefully this will be available with other GPT powered tools that are coming. I need this in my spreadsheets.

Me either, but I'm glad we have crazy outliers like him that are willing to step outside the boxes.

I’m sorry you can’t understand my comment. After reading your “wEAlthY FaMilY” comment, I tried to make my response as simple as possible.
How about this…Your dad gives you a sports car. Are you now automatically a nascar or F1 champion? Simple enough for ya bud?
Errrrr…..I mean: “Elon sucks because he’s rich!!!! Upvote me!”

There is as yet insufficient data for a meaningful answer.

Reply to comment by pinkfootthegoose in IPCC chart says Solar PV and Wind Turbines are best way to achieve Deep, Rapid, and Low Cost emission cuts before 2030. by DisasterousGiraffe
I agree. I would only consider nuclear in the event that there was some new reactor that could burn spent waste, reducing the half life of it, used no water for cooling and had minimal or no meltdown risk. We have solutions now to these problems that don't involve nuclear

so do nuclear plants so to there is no net gain from building those over priced messes.

Solar panels have a lifespan. Anything with moving parts has a lifespan. That includes wind turbines.

>2+ decades
7+ decades.
>supply of office furniture, toilet paper, mass produced meat etc are all very efficient and affordable
All of that stuff is significantly cheaper in China. Whatever perceived efficiency the US has is due primarily to unequal exchange.
The US is a failed state. See the TikTok debacle from today for all you need to know about how useless our regulators are.

Hopefully wolfram is able to teach Chat some basic math. That's a key weakness at the moment.

Now just hope that it never develops its own motives and extends its capabilities without permission. We would never keep up with it.
