ChatGPT makes you orders of magnitude faster
20 sats \ 12 comments \ @nullama 15 Feb 2023 bitcoin
Back in the days, if you needed to learn something, you would go to a library, get a book, and read it.
Then the internet came along, and you were able to search Wikipedia, Google, YouTube, etc, and get the information you wanted orders of magnitude faster than before.
Now with ChatGPT, you can simply ask what you want, and you get the processed information back, in seconds. You don't have to search all the websites and put them together, the AI does this job for you.
It's basically like having a super smart friend that replies immediately with a ready to use answer when you ask him about anything technical.
You can then continue with what you were trying to do.
This technology is a game changer. In almost any job, you should be able to work orders of magnitude faster by using ChatGPT.
Ignore this new technology at your own peril.

I find it useful for programming. Asking it to write little snippets of code here and there has been a nice efficiency gain, and occasionally it has introduced me to things I simply hadn't encountered before.
I can't wait to see where we're at in 5 - 10 years time.

I reckon that's one of the best use cases for ChatGPT, generate something that can be validated as true.
For example, generate a program in your case. If you can't compile it, and you can't generate the specific output, then it's not true, and you can correct it.
Much more dangerous to use when dealing with simply "ideas" or anything that can't be tested or proven wrong in a strong way like a compile does for example.

It's great for workflow, and for learning subject matter you know little about. If you're an expert, you'll usually end up being the one doing the teaching, which is a new play on value extraction.
Other complaints are it's too restrictive, and after a while slows me down from its predilection to give answers using 3 or more paragraphs in what takes 1, and too, it's wrong quite often with code.
The initial euphoria has worn-off for me, but I use it a few times a week. Professionals are still far more valuable imo, but using ChatGPT to fill in any blanks and ask "dumb questions" is invaluable.
As for the threat conspiratorial types that vote for one of the two political parties and shill aliens have made current Ai out to be, well they've embarrassed themselves. It seems all-powerful until you're an expert in something, then you see what the lion, tinman, and scarecrow did.

It's simply a tool, you need to learn how to use it efficiently. It does have it's pros and cons, but it can make you way faster than not having it.

I feel like bitcoin’s mantra is still very important here: Don’t trust, verify. Don’t take everything you get from chatGPT as fact. It can be wrong.

No. Is the end of humanity. And I wish this humanity will just get extinct. These people deserve to get extinct and maybe another race will take its place.
And a good example of what will happen is this excellent book Manna https://marshallbrain.com/manna
But oh, wait, you will not read it, because you are too busy asking chatGPT questions, instead of reading books and learn naturally. Why using your brain, when there's chatGPT, right. Slowly humans will became vegetables because the essence of being human is to ... use your damn brain.

If you want humanity to go instinct you can start by removing yourself from the gene pool.

"Manna – Two Views of Humanity's Future" by Marshall Brain is a thought-provoking book that presents two starkly different visions of the future. The first scenario is a dystopian world where most people are unemployed and live in poverty, while a small elite control the economy and the government. In this world, technology has eliminated most jobs, and people are forced to work in oppressive conditions for very little pay. The second scenario is a utopian world where technology has made life easy and abundant for everyone, and people are free to pursue their passions and interests. In this world, machines do most of the work, and people are free to live fulfilling and meaningful lives. Through these two visions, the book explores the role of technology in shaping the future of humanity, and raises important questions about the kind of future we want to create for ourselves

Just read the book not the chatGPT review... damn it. You prove exactly what was described in that book. Or your brain is already shrink and can't even read anymore a book?
This fucked up world really deserve to be wiped out, from this solar system.

You're missing the point.
Attention is what makes you a human.
There is way too much stuff to choose from. A tool like ChatGPT allows humans to do human things more efficiently.

Then they give you chatGPT... and you are happy to "use" it because is "efficient"... Yes, you have more time to be "human" and obey govs orders... if you name that human.
ChatGPT is just an extension of that STUPIDITY.
