I've been reporting fake tesla and space x accounts so often on youtube - that I eventually wrote a script to copy and past into the report.

Most of the time they do get removed - sometimes successfully before the QRcode is displayed. They even bot the streams so it appears like 30-40k people are watching creating 'social proof'


Reminds me of this one [1]

I remember when I saw it I wanted to play with it - just seemed like a good way to organize things and 'play' with your desktop


you were only 350 from a macbook m1 air, at which point you remote into said windows machine and suffer less (as when you un-remote you have great laptop.


Are there any websites where I can just visit a URL and talk with some ChapGPT? ..

Tired of seeing all the bing / bard / etc headlines and clicking only to find out I can join a waitlist.

If this is a google killer - the interface should be as easy as the google search box on google.com


Do you mean something like https://chat.openai.com/chat ?


I meant free and without signup like a google search.


I'll say for $129 it looks better than magic leap, unless they faked it too.


+1 for namecheap as a registrar replacement - their chat support is the only chat support I've ever had actually fix an issue.


ChatGPT is already 10x more useful than crypto and NFTS. The foundational value of ChapGPT is not based on speculation or selling it to the 'next fool'.


Is it actually?

It doesn't give out reliable information and its "creativity" is questionable. Most of the excitement about it has to do with anthropomorphizing a robot that "feels" like an intelligent conversation partner, but it's not. Beyond toys, that is.

Similar to crypto. It isn't actually useful as a currency or to store value. Most of the excitemeny had to do with fake "freedom" dreams of the anarchically-leaning crowd and misunderstandings of what it is and isn't. Beyond toys, that is.

I see lots of parallels actually.


ChatGPT has real value to me. Ive been using it for my d&d games and to do some simple writing stuff that I hate. It costs me nothing, and I don't have to gamble to use it. Its value over crypto for me and my friends is exponential. Stable Diffusion has been even more valuable for me and I get to run that on my own metal.


>Most of the excitement about it has to do with anthropomorphizing a robot that "feels" like an intelligent conversation partner, but it's not

Literally no one I know that's excited about ChatGPT cares even one bit about the conversation aspect. No one I know is excited by the fact that it's a robot to talk to... They are excited by the fact that you can feed it code and errors and it can debug for you or you can give it code and it can write relevant documentation. Or you can give it tabular data and it can make charts and do basic analysis...

If you can't see the utility then maybe you should question your own creativity.


Sam Altman’s isn’t claiming ChatGPT will make you rich.

When you start using it, it tells you it’s a research project.

Even in its current form, it’s useful for a narrow set of uses.

It’s entirely conceivable that ChatGPT successors will be able to incorporate signals of fact vs opinion, and also authoritativeness of a source, into their training.

So yeah, ChatGPT is a toy, but that’s not bad for a research demo. But it has a lot of potential, and can help people in practical ways as it improves.


You are right, of course; The foundational (technical) value isn't based on speculation but that is irrelevant to con-artists or crime organisations who are looking for their next hype product to drive a new round of frauds.

The people I see most enthusiastic about the current AI development are not the technologist and developers, but people who aren't involved in tech and doesn't code. There's already adverts on social media for ChatGPT AI services of various trustworthiness. They claim their AIs can construct and implement “the” winning trading algorithms for anyone, for a fee, of course.

This issue isn't on GPT per se, but many can't yet see the difference between plausible applications and those which aren't. With each fantastical story about what ChatGPT managed to do, it's hard to blame them.


Too many high paid super intendents who have very little impact education. At least in Oklahoma. Yukon, Piedmont and Atoka (smallish towns) have SIs making 180k which is absurd salary for this state.

https://sde.ok.gov/sites/default/files/documents/files/FY20%...


So this salary being higher than normal, which I'm not refuting, is casuing what educational problems?


Salary available for those who actually teach.


Is 180k high for people I assume have a masters degree and 10+ years of experience?


It is high if they don't have any skills that people would willingly pay them that much for with their own money.


In Oklahoma and with tax payer dollars? yes.


Honestly 2 of these per person and 5 for the turn,flop,river - and we have a texas holdem game without cards and shuffling - just chips...

so a 6 person game, 12 of these + 5 ~ 17 of these ~ $450 ~ about the cost of real nice chips and cards...


Well, you could also 'just' put an iPad in the middle of the table for public game state (like turn, flop river in Poker), and everyone has their smartphone for private game state (like your hand in Poker) and you can play most boardgames quite nicely.

Instead of the iPad in the middle you could use a TV screen, too, but then you can't directly interact with that via touch screen.


hey, yeah! The commenter about the iPad is also right, but, there's something satisfying about the physicality.

That said, you can play poker with a deck of cards and a pile of beans.

But yeah, I'm looking for something somewhere between Poker and an iPad.

See my other comment, a lot of interesting mechanics are available.

I'd sell you a poker set if you want to impress your friends :D Email me: jonah@wyldcard.io


One card pp might be adequate for the hold cards. It's easy enough to represent two cards on one little screen. Feels tidier to me.

For holdem, you ideally need a plinth that can "deal" cards upside down. Maybe it's more general to have a plinth that can update cards in either orientation.

Congrants jonahss on your art. Thanks for sharing.


2nd behind Android if we're counting mobile OS's. But still ahead of computer/laptop/desktop OS's.
