I got 1 paying customer. I already built it. But I have to revamp it.

by profiting from another person's work.

Facing adversity when one is young is important. Elon Musk faced it a lot and so did Arnold Schwarzenegger. Both of them credit it for building resilience in them. But again it will back fire if there is too much adversity / trauma.

In fact in one of the interviews Elon talks about implementing structured adversity.

thats just cope. I stopped using stackoverflow because I get everything from chatpgt/claude. Just a case of having better tech.

Sure the mods were arseholes etc.. but before gpt never minded using it .

Reality #1: Universal Basic Income (UBI) will empower people to break free from the grind of work. They'll have the freedom to start innovative companies, create art, make music, learn to dance, and generally enjoy happier, less stressful lives.

Reality #2: Alternatively, many might find themselves stuck at home, glued to their screens. This could lead to boredom and depression, resulting in online trolling and petty arguments. Some may even resort to crime out of frustration.

is it better than Claude?

The intuition is pretty spot on though. We don't need to get to AGI. Just making progress along the way to AGI can do plenty of damage.

1. AI-driven medical procedures: Healthcare Cost = $0. 2. Access to world class education: Cost of education = $0 3. Transportation: Cheap Autonomous vehicles powered by Solar. 4. Scientific research: AI will accelerate scientific progress by coming up with novel hypotheses and then testing them. 5. AI Law Enforcement: Will piece together all the evidence in a split second and come up with a fair judgement. Will prevent crime before it happens by analyzing body language, emotions etc.

Basically, this will accelerate UBI.

Does it solve my problem? Yes? Shut up and take my money! ~ Sincerely, a customer.

Google is risk-averse. There is no real incentive for its management to be aggressive. Even with the Gemini AI, they only acted after being pushed around by OpenAI.

You need someone ruthless and aggressive at the top, like Travis Kalanick, Jeff Bezos, Elon Musk or Steve Jobs who basically stop at nothing. Folks who act fast and can take big decisions. MBA business types often get caught up in endless meetings, prevaricating over inessential things.

For some reason I felt Claude was Yahoo to ChatGPT's Google in the initial days. It just felt like ChatGPT had an insurmountable moat.

I played with Claude and it is just insanely superior compared to ChatGpt as of now. Someone on HN commented the same thing a few months back but I did not take it very seriously. But, Claude is just superior to Chatgpt.

ChatGPT is like Google now. It is the default. Even if Claude becomes as good as ChatGPT or even slightly better it won't make me switch. It has to be like a lot better. Way better.

It feels like ChatGPT won the time to market war already.

yup.. and thats good for the consumers as well because they don't have to worry about their private data sitting on open ai servers.

AI can create creative regional works. Anything a human being can create an AI can too.

Similar to the self checkout process at Walmart/HEB etc. One person will be there for any issues and will intervene minimally.

Not really. AI overview is a natural progression. It is pretty accurate. The hallucinations have decreased significantly over the past year. Most people won't mind this.

It is difficult to get a man to understand something when his salary depends on his not understanding it. ~ U. Sinclair

A significant problem is the subconscious defense mechanism or bias that compels us to conclude that AI has various shortcomings, asserting the ongoing need for status quo.

The capabilities of GPT-3.x in early 2023 pale in comparison to today's AI, and it will continue to evolve and improve.

It's challenging when dealing with millions of dollars. $5 million is a substantial amount, and a 37% capital gains tax would reduce it to approximately $3 million. Essentially, you would lose $2 million to taxes.

$5m is life changing.

Having said that it is stupid to commit tax fraud and live a life of perpetual fear.

It leaves a bad taste in the mouth, doesn't it? Why haven't they taken action until now? People aren't children to be appeased by such gestures.

AI is not a bubble. Anymore than iphone / the internet was a bubble.

If you park in the Mission District, chances are someone’s gonna smash your window and grab your stuff. Calling the cops? Eh, don’t expect much. They show up late or not at all, and even if they catch someone, they're out again fast. So, what’s the point?

Top rated answer: >> Give criminals more hefty punishments because they are usually not put in jail for long and charges are often dropped. Usually when arrested the same offenders are smashing and grabbing again right after release.

Sympathetic Public == Lax Pro Criminal Laws == Catch and Release == No consequence for Criminals == Repeat Offenders == More Victims

If you commit crime you do the time. After getting released if you commit crime you should do exponentially more time.

The police are only as competent as the laws are. If the criminals know that they will be released the same day with no consequences then there is no point in catching them.

I don't think Caroline is a bad person. She was brilliant smart and focused on academics etc. She got pulled into this mess during the crypto mania phase.

because everybody is shit scared of the implications of it being good enough to replace them. This is just a protective defense mechanism because it threatens the status quo upon which entire careers have been built.

This brings an interesting dilemma. Google could try the Kagi approach.

If you're sitting in the CEO chair at Google, you're looking at a tough decision. Google Search isn't just another product; it's the heart of the business, raking in 60% of the revenue. They've been king of the search hill for over 20 years because they did one thing better than anyone else: search. Now, with LLMs entering the scene, adding them to search results could slash ad views and revenue. Remember the days when a simple search would send you down a fascinating rabbit hole of articles? Those days could be numbered.

But here's the kicker: if you resist integrating LLMs into Google Search, you might slow down the revenue decline, sure. However, sticking to the old ways might also get you branded a Luddite and cost you your job. It's a classic tech dilemma - innovate or perish.

Yes, but the VCs trust you to a large extent and they can't delve into the nitty-gritty of daily operations. If they do they will develop a bad reputation.

Your boss's job is to oversee the minutiae of your day-to-day activities. Like in most workplaces, you can't choose to just chill for a few days, work only at night, or choose to avoid meetings for a few days, etc.

You will have a level autonomy and the ability to change directions/features, etc. that you cannot have working for others.

just use ChatGPT . >> Entrepreneurs are often characterized by their willingness to take risks. This trait is considered fundamental to entrepreneurship because starting and running a business involves navigating uncertainty and making decisions that could lead to either substantial success or failure.

It could also be a personality type. Most Entrepreneurs are eager to take risks. Some have ADHD/Dyslexia and many others just have the personality. Doesn't have to mean Bipolar Disorder.

Edited BPD to Bipolar

I think pg said it best in one of his tweets/essays ?? not sure. Essentially starting a startup is super hard. You can't just chill/half ass and still do well even if you had already succeeded before.

Maybe because I use ChatGPT-4 a lot I find ChatGPT-4 responses more credible than Gemini/Bard. I personally feel Gemini that is trying hard to not offend me and is also trying to sugarcoat the truth. It also feels kind of half baked.
