The government has nothing to do with Stargate.


Haha, Musk is probably fuming as we type.


They haven't because this might actually finally wake up at least part of the people and cause problems for Dear leader. Let's hope Trump doesn't fold immediately and give the situation more time to develop.


Time equals worse lack of manpower for Ukraine. Time is on Russia's side as it is.


Sure, but fish contain several times less iron per weight.


Nah, that's Musk 100%. Sam is still in the small leagues.


Wait, how does the pro improve remote play? I may have missed something.


WiFi 7 possibly?



Board found out about ChatGPT on Twitter? Maybe she did but I kinda doubt Ilya was in the dark.


It's likely that Ilya didn't think the launch was anything notable: https://www.businessinsider.com/chatgpt-was-inaccurate-borin...


One of my most valuable memories is when I dismissed ChatGPT the day it came out. I didn't bother trying it; GPTs were just autocomplete, and OpenAI had already stretched the limits of what autocomplete could do, so this ChatGPT would just be slightly better autocomplete.

Much like pg dismissing Facebook as lame when it first launched, I was exponentially mistaken: https://paulgraham.com/swan.html

> History tends to get rewritten by big successes, so that in retrospect it seems obvious they were going to make it big. For that reason one of my most valuable memories is how lame Facebook sounded to me when I first heard about it. A site for college students to waste time? It seemed the perfect bad idea: a site (1) for a niche market (2) with no money (3) to do something that didn't matter.

It's worth remembering that even the big successes often don't realize they're onto something -- you'll be less likely to dismiss the next big wave when you see it forming.

Some were primed to do so by Meta's Galactica: https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=33611265


Calling GPT autocomplete is an insult to autocompleters.


Funny:

It is a very fancy autocomplete indeed, but it's not like you missed anything on day 1.

The engineering they put around GPT to make it work as a smart translator and eloquent "brainstormer" and whatnot is impressive, but so far there's no killer app in sight. (The biggest bang for the buck seems to be Copilot.)


It is the killer app in itself. You might be underestimating it's impact and how much usage it's getting (not always for good things, not always for bad).

It's totally permeated many areas of life for people.


Yeah

>100 million monthly active users in January, just two months after launch, making it the fastest-growing consumer application in history

I've used it for some non trivial stuff. Legal advice and advice on launching a crypto project.


It definitely is a killer app and light years ahead any competing product. Github copilot is good but different use case to me. If you meant MSFT Copilot, well that I am not sure what benefit if any exists.


You mean ChatGPT? What's the use case that people pay for

I mean the thing you can use in IDEs, some people seem to love it. (And it's great for writing Terraform code for example.)


Interesting point. It's either that or Ilya also didn't mention it to the board. Seems unusual whichever it was.


Ilya was Part of the board, same as Sam and Greg brockman


Gemini Ultra is the model. Bard Advanced (which probably soon will become Gemini Advanced) is the whole product. Like GPT-4 and ChatGPT.


As far as I understand, Bard/Gemini Advanced (the product), is backed by Gemini Ultra (the model). Gemini comes in Ultra/Pro/Nano, and I don't think Bard/Gemini the web product is using Nano at all as that's designed for on-device inference.


Same, but I can access Advanced here anyway https://bard.google.com/chat


yup same here, I think subscribing 'works' but Google just botched the launch.
