ChatGPT

The move shows how software developers in many industries beyond Silicon Valley see state-of-the-art AI like GPT as a technical advancement allowing them to automate tasks that used to require a human.

Yes, I also posted about the Bloomberg LLM a few weeks ago. It's going to be a foundational technology (much like IT digitalization in the 90-00s, mobile revolution in 2010+), every institution and Fortune 500 company worth their salt will build their own LLMs. So as to fully capture the value of their proprietary data and not leak confidential data to their competitors (ala Samsung to OpenAI last week).  

Expecting Chip, Cloud, and IT Infra investments to recover sooner than expected for this new AI capex cycle.

"Fortune 500 company worth their salt will build their own LLMs. So as to fully capture the value of their proprietary data and not leak confidential data to their competitors (ala Samsung to OpenAI last week)"

what does this look like? Engaging a vendor such as OpenAI or building in house?

The business model for companies like OpenAI sounds very sticky if companies rely on their LLMs but using their own proprietary data.

I am interested in how you improve 10x as a student (since I am also a student at heart) with ChatGPT. That is one hell of a productivity gain!

I am one old geezer. Besides old fashion reading/reflection (with the occasional light bulb going off), imitating people better than me, and questioning uncommon sense, I welcome all avenues that the rate of personal improvement can be accelerated.

Mostly as a personal AI tutor. For example, if you hit a roadblock regarding a topic a hand (be it engineering, sciences, economics, learning a new language etc.), or struggling with context when reading a research paper (what this technical jargon means in this context), asking ChatGPT often shed insights that you can immediately investigate further via Google or other sources. You are no longer bounded by simply, Google + Youtube + Wikipedia + Wolfram Alpha.

Roadblocks (conceptual, knowledge or otherwise), is often the rate limiting factor during self-study.

ChatGPT and similar AI assistants, disproportionately favors the self-motivated; has the potential to further narrow the gap between the privileged and the have-nots.

Broadly speaking, IMHO the internet democratized information, and ChatGPT has the potential to democratized knowledge.

Hi Wildreamz,
As per your advice, I have been using ChatGPT since then and I have to say it indeed does improve productivity, maybe not 10x yet as I am only scratching the surface. But I can now finally see where all this hype is going. Personally, my online behavorial patterns are changing - less google.com, more ChatGPT... Of course I still go to Google to search for locations, reviews and the weather tomorrow. In fact booking.com probably paid a fee to Alphabet for linking their booking site to my location search and then Youtube used my search queries to show me related videos.

After the invention of printing press (books) and discovering covid19 forcing everyone to put their talks online (youtubes/podcasts), now we have an AI bot as personal aide.

Hi Weijian,

Indeed. Right now ChatGPT haven't even been able to connect to the internet. There is a lot of untapped potential. 

Would recommend trying perplexity.ai if you need an internet connected version, or ChatPDF if you need a PDF reader. Also pay for the Plus version if you haven't.

This is a great time to build, things/business/career/further studies etc. and/or integrate ChatGPT into your everyday workflow. 90% of the world haven't even started using ChatGPT yet. The compounded advantages early adopters get will be exponential.  

On Google, I do feel that their risk is elevated now, since there is a data advantage for early movers in this. All user input and feedback will be used to train their LLM to make ChatGPT better, and I estimate they have at least 1 year head start compared to Google, in terms of usability and adoption.

Time is ticking on Google to come up with a viable, competitive product.

(vested in Alphabet)

Does anyone use ChatGPT to summarise articles or ChatPDF to summarise long PDFs?
How do you verify the generated information without wasting time reading the entire original text yourself?

Depends.

If it's a brand new subject that you have completely no pre-existing knowledge about, better to read more. If it's a subject you already know a lot about, and just want to get up to speed. Then the summary helps a lot to get to the most important points.

For example, if the summary is unexpected (say you are summarizing Fed minutes, and Fed cut raise instead of raise rates, which you were expecting), then you can ask the PDF (via ChatPDF) about why, what's the rationale etc. The key is after the summary, keep asking follow-up questions to the PDF to verify that the logic flows (from your existing knowledge, to what's said in the PDF).

You can even upload a second article, with conflicting information/opinion, and ask ChatGPT to compare and reason why is there an apparent difference.

Thank you for the suggestion

Have to admit those wine lines are catchy, and the opportunities are like the advert of the internet, social media, sharing economy..

AI-Generated Junk Is Flooding Etsy

So I asked ChatGPT to come up with some funny shirts about loving wine. “Wine Improves with Age, I Improve with Wine,” it offered. “I Make Pour Decisions.” “Sip Happens.” “I Only Drink Wine on Days That End in Y.”

It’s all about spotting an opportunity. Steven Hornyak, a proprietor of an Etsy shop selling collections of prewritten ChatGPT and Midjourney prompts, supplements his teacher’s salary with about $300 a day in profit. His most popular products are a ChatGPT Etsy-listing generator—a detailed prompt that users can input into ChatGPT to help them create Etsy product listings that are optimized to appear in Google search—and a collection of 2,500 Midjourney art prompts. “The secret sauce is that once you learn how to engineer prompts, you can create prompts that generate other prompts,”
