Disturbing replies to Tim Urban on Twitter: “What, if anything, do you regularly use ChatGPT (or another LLM) for that has provided a dramatic improvement over your previous workflow?”

Posted by jpluimers on 2024/01/24

Gotten there from the reasonable ChatGPT use below, I was negatively surprised what people use ChatGPT for and totally rely on the ChatGPT responses: [Wayback/Archive] Tim Urban on Twitter: “What, if anything, do you regularly use ChatGPT (or another LLM) for that has provided a dramatic improvement over your previous workflow?”

I think this is about the only reasonable ChatGPT use today: [Wayback/Archive] Barry Kelly on Twitter: “@waitbutwhy – minor scripts for things like ffmpeg or Image/GraphicsMagick – trying to do something with an API I’m not familiar with; often gets screwy when it’s obscure though Things I’m not using it for: any kind of creative writing. Execrable.

Remember that ChatGPT is a text generation model that averages the quality of the text in its corpus that was obtained in the past which means at it’s release, the “knowledge” was already dated.

How long will the free GPT-3.5 and GPT-4 based ChatGPT exist?

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/05/03

For a while now, there has been a free [Wayback/Archive] ChatGPT which works around the paid barriers by relaying the chat through 3rd parties.

I wonder how long it will exist.

The cease and desist letter was from OpenAI to the repository owner which – paraphrased – maintains the stance that the 3rd parties pay license fees to OpenAI, and that if these parties have issues with his tool basically scraping them, should contact the repository owner to work things out.

This is all part of a bigger discussion on license and copyright of what AI based LLMs (Large Language Models) which are sourced from a large corpus of text that we all publish for free on the internet without a way to track back from ChatGPT responses to which texts were used.

Two now 3 months old O’RLY book puns “Getting ChatGPT to write your code” / “Copying and Pasting from ChatGPT”

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/04/04

Earlier this week I got reminded of the “book” so many people seem to fall for via the Tweet by [Wayback/Archive] turbo (@turboCodr) / Twitter.

The image (and text) is in fact a parody both on ChatGPT and on the Stack Overflow meme it is based on (more on my opinion on both further below).

Back to the book title referred by [Wayback/Archive] turbo on Twitter: “Something something last tech book you’ll ever buy”.:

Deploying untested code at break-neck speeds
Essential
Copying and Pasting from ChatGPT
O’REILLY
The Practical Developer

Posted by jpluimers on 2023/01/26

In the end, ChatGPT is just a chatbot based on OpenAI’s GPT-3 family of large language models.
