@adamwathan @themkmaker I'm really enjoying it, but found it quite confusing to get started. I only knew about the UI picker (my favourite thing) from a screenshot on here, so would be good to have that in the email/landing page?

@SelectivePress @s8mb @edwest They just cut this budget substantially unfortunately

@WillManidis @zebird0 https://t.co/v4tN1ydufA - has been true for a long long time

GPT-3 output seems to spell everything correctly.

I guess correct spelling is a kind of Schelling Point?

Maybe to proove your writing is human-generated, you need to inlcude a load of wierd typoes?

@GaryDelaney Fun fact, one of America's other big chip companies actually did start as a potato chip company: https://t.co/WBO4YNXNAw

@Austen This is exactly how it works for every school in the UK

@BenRamanauskas @hmtreasury The real move would be to voluntarily increase your Council Tax bill.

@koomen @aloo I think there's some fear left over from the "GPT-wrapper" days that allowing the user access to the system prompt is revealing that the emperor has no clothes.

But I don't think that's accurate - as you say the tools and the UX are where the real value lies.

@s8mb It also never considers the counterfactual, e.g. typing on a laptop is worse for the environment than using AI: https://t.co/3amr5wV3Hk

UK driving test prices haven't changed in 16 years, over which time inflation was 57%.

Now there's a ~6 month wait-time for a driving test and 100s of private companies selling "fast track tests" - basically ticket touts.

Who could have predicted it?

@davepl1968 Try standing on the mirror and looking down

@JamesDLamming Not sure this is right.

Tech makes things cheaper, and that makes it more widespread, not necessarily more decentralised.

It also makes things more centralised, e.g. the world's largest data centre has as much compute capacity as all the world's smartphones combined.

[Tom Neill @TomJNeill]

@Altimor @itsurboyevan There's also a decent argument that by making existing models go further/do more, you reduce the risk that people are caught unawares by latent capacities

@LukeTryl What happens if it's a tie?

I would guess Alexander and Frankie know that Leanne and Jake is the most likely end, so can't they pair up and stop it?

[Tom Neill @TomJNeill]

@steventey @dubdotco @tremorlabs Nice, I'll look into that over the next few weeks. We already have event hosts using dub for generating short links so might as well automate that process.
