The official ChatGPT thread - the next big thing?

[Bo Diddley]

I asked it to write about making Kraft Mac and CHeese in the narrative voice of Nephi:



As I set out to fulfill the commandment to prepare a dish of Kraft Macaroni and Cheese, I knew that I must seek the guidance of the Lord in all things. For it is through following the word of God that we can achieve the blessings that He has promised us. And so, with faith and devotion, I gathered the necessary ingredients: a box of macaroni pasta, a packet of cheese sauce mix, and two cups of milk.

I brought a pot of water to boil, adding salt as I had been instructed by the Lord, and placed the macaroni within. I cooked it until it was tender, as directed, and then drained it, returning it to the pot once more.

Next, I added the cheese sauce mix and the milk to the pot, stirring it together until the cheese sauce was well combined with the macaroni. I let the mixture cook for a few more minutes, until the cheese sauce was thick and creamy, as the Lord had ordained.

Finally, I transferred the dish to a serving plate, and sat down to partake of the holy sacrament of macaroni and cheese. As I ate, I gave thanks to the Lord for His goodness and mercy, and for the blessings that He had bestowed upon me. For through His guidance, I had been able to prepare a dish that was both delicious and fulfilling. And so, I praised His holy name, knowing that He would always be with me, guiding and protecting me, now and forevermore. Amen.

I get that. When it comes to the Brethren, does anybody else miss Marvin J. Ashton a little bit?

I was chatting with my doctor son about this. One of the most time consuming and tedious jobs parts of his job is all of the data entry and documentation he hast to do for each visit with a patient. It seems to consume every spare minute he has both at work and at home. He said some doctors are able to hire a personal scribe who follows them around with a laptop and listens in on each visit and does a lot of the data entry for them. There's a cost to that, but it allows the doctor to see more patients. Well, it turned out turns out that AI could be a major game changer for the medical industry. He said that IHC is testing a new app where you can turn it on on your phone at the beginning of a visit and it listens to the entire visit and at the end you just tell it to summarize for you and it creates an appropriately crafted and formatted summary of all of the pertinent medical information from the visit that is typically required for the physicians data entry. He didn't opt in on the trial, but the other doctors he works who have tried it say it works unbelievably well. He said one doc was almost in tears telling him about it. I'll let you know when we get a full report after he tries it.

Very cool. Yeah, I see a lot of potential value in it.

Is it Deepscribe? My SIL is looking at this for his practice.

Yeah, I see AI automating a lot of dumb tasks and even killing some low paying jobs. For example, Apple started using AI to narrate audiobooks. I have been playing around with AI object detection on the side. It is actually to the point where it is very useful. The problem right now, however, is the accelerator chips (like Google Coral) are kind of hard to come by due to the chip shortage.

OpenAI, the startup behind ChatGPT, discusses tender offer that could value it at $29B

OpenAI says that its ultimate goal is for its technology to achieve what researchers call “artificial general intelligence,” which is a state where AI can fully mirror the intelligence, creativeness and thoughtfulness of humans. Altman, in a December interview with the Journal, said that OpenAI’s tools can potentially have a transformative effect on society similar to that of the smartphone. He believes AI can be used to come up with solutions to some of the largest challenges facing the scientific community today.

In the meantime, though, OpenAI clearly needs more money if it wants to get there. The company claims to be generating “tens of millions of dollars” in revenue and believes it is on track to hit $1 billion in annual revenue by 2024, Reuters reported previously. However, Altman has also stated that OpenAI intends to avoid going public or getting acquired.

“ChatGPT has really opened people’s eyes to how far AI has progressed,” said Holger Mueller of Constellation Research Inc. “It’s reached a point where it’s no longer clear if a human or an AI has performed the work. So it’s not surprising that this has caught the eye of investors who want to get in early. OpenAI is a tricky case, though, because it doesn’t want to go public, so a tender offer is the most viable way for investors to jump on the ChatGPT AI bandwagon early.”

At its best--presently--it's like an egg sandwich at Starbucks, which is no substitute for an egg sandwich with fresh made egg at your favorite New York deli. And it may get your order wrong because the ingredients may be wrong, garbage in garbage out.

I read the other day that Google is in full-on panic mode right now. This is the first real threat to their search engine dominance. They are scrambling to catch up and offer similar features, but they are way behind.

I'm not talking about it as a search engine. It may be better for that than google. All it's doing is surfing and synthesizing.

I think you are grossly underestimating what ChatGPT could become. What’s wild to me is that I always pictured AI would come for the service and production type of jobs. In actuality this thing presages the loss of white collar jobs. How long before it can beat a human lawyer in the courtroom? It’s got to at least raise an eyebrow in your world.

Dr. Sbaitso could beat a lot of human lawyers I know.
