Not surprised at the results.

Super glad my granny always made sure I knew how rude it was to look at my phone when you're with someone.

Not since Google results became such garbage. Plus, the chats provide references. So easy to verify.

I've seen tweets that suggest they are using it, particularly, the prerelease GPT-4 was used internally.

I wonder if they fixed replying to Gmail threads. Last time I tried, without the NLP layer, it failed to do anything but create new threads.

Impressive dedication to science.

To me, Obsidian flexibility and ease of customization makes it more of a personal operating system than simply a knowledge base.

An OS requires a DB, but a DB is not an OS.

Does anyone have any references for this software?

> Typical reactions to the software are:

> Meeting 1: “Why are we using this software? Let’s just use a Google Doc, it’s easier.”

> Meeting 2: “Oh, I see why this software is better than a Google Doc. Let’s keep using it.”

> Meeting 3: “This software is awesome. Can I please use this throughout my entire company.”

Seems interesting.

Edit: I think it's "CompanyOS" [2]. The homepage is nearly a replica of the Mochary Method website.

But, I haven't seen anything about how the software works. Does anyone have any information about it's features?

Thanks for your contribution.

Besides adding image generation, how is this better than the existing text-generator plugin?

> It's like the connection between objects in real life and objects in programming

What if this a more accurate representation:

"It's like the connection between dictionaries in real life and dictionaries in programming."

The neuron could be implementing NN theory in a way that is optimized for it's environment.

What about...

"We need a forum with accountability from people we work with and see regularly"

I know employers are already doing this.

Alternatively,

"We need a forum where locally connected people share the same avatar"

An additional layer of accountability being the theme in both.

Maybe a hub-and-spoke model?

Themed co-working spaces, interconnected by a virtual space.

I bet me & GPT can write better content than you alone.

The content is certainly better than me writing alone. So I'd say your premise is flawed.

If only I could have GPT-3 help me stop responding to flame bait, though.

> It's basically blog spam and/or a social experiment to see how many automated articles they can farm karma with.

Author here. This is a false assumption. I'm only posting content I deeply care about, so the quality matters to me. Nothing is automated at all, it's an iterative process, all done by hand. And lol at "farm karma." Like, why?

I will also be writing more about how I use GPT-3 to help me write, so I wouldn't discount my content because I use GPT-3 just yet.

Yes, this was a "test the waters" type of post, and I will be elaborating on my ideas.

If we're at the inflection point of changes in how we work, which I think the explosion of remote work may suggest, then we have to completely reconsider what we "know" about work.

So, to answer your question, "how?"

We need to question every current assumption about work. The system is currently in a malleable state, but that won't last. More questioning assumptions, means more experiments, means more developments.

I have my hypotheses, and I'm working on those experiments. I hope to bring together more people that are interested in the same.

That sounds like an interesting book, I will have to check it out.

I didn't mean to suggest that a single skill guild is sufficient for any single person.

I believe the answer is somewhere in the middle of where we are now, groupings like subreddits, and what you're talking about.

Something where participation takes real effort, but in a way that complements other guilds such that members can "cross-pollinate" and grow as an individual opposed to growing into a mold.

As a moderator/manager of communities like these, those are real problems. And unfortunately, I don't think any of the existing platforms have a way to address the lack of and perverse incentives.

Maybe something like a subreddit if it was like a DAO but without the crypto?

AI-assisted, but not "generated" imo.

This topic is something I will write many more blog posts about. I have lots of notes on various topics, but they aren't in a publishable state. If I were in a better financial position, I would hire a ghost writer to help me work out the drafts. But, I'm not, so GPT-3 helps me with that.

Yes, but think even bigger.

Where would you meet the people to start that consultancy?

I like this notion.

However, some sort of "fair & balanced" law would have to enforce this.

Edit: and to respond to sibling comment about fact-checking being heckled...

The mechanism here would have to somehow force a similar amount of views. For example, if a lie gets 1MM views, then the proof of the lie should have to gain 1MM views before the original author can gain leverage of the algorithm again.

Of course the new system will eventually be abused, however, it's a step in the right direction. And when that eventually fails to be recognizable, another set of checks and balances must be layered on top.

> Under what argument should it be reasonable

To narrow the gap luck currently plays in life outcomes.

Currently, you are either born lucky, trust funds and generational real estate, or not.

More chances to be "lucky" would enable more opportunities for more people. And the OP suggests a negligible cost to make that happen.

Sunscreen?

Bookmarklets are underutilized.

They can even be utilized to automate simple tasks that I used to use INSERT MACRO PROGRAM NAME to do.

The downside is lack of mobile availability.

> Collecting such individual data via blood & urine samples (possibly fat biopsies & breast milk as well) on a yearly basis should really be part of a standard medical checkup procedure

No so long as sickness is so profitable. The incentives aren't there like you would think.

The other day I was think, it's actually the platforms where most of these communities that benefit directly from their existence.

And we know those platforms are tools for manipulation.

How much of the desire for these communities might be manufactured in the first place?

One way is to minimize your responsibilities and requirements to maintain your lifestyle.

Most people get indoctrinated into a 1:1 relationship with what they make and their lifestyle cost.

It's $0 to not buy-in to a broken system.

Why else are Googlers paid so much? (rhetorical)

They need to do their damn job.

As a pixel 6 owner, I'm disgusted.

TLDR Google re-discovers decades-old search feature, users seemingly never realized it disappeared.

Correlation isn't causation. The serotonin effect may be a symptom of the depression. Treating symptoms is sufficient intervention for many.

Ew.

Thanks for elaborating on why shareholder value is bad for all but "big shareholders"!
