🚨 Our new paper: we know that GPT-4 generates better ideas than most people, but the ideas are kind of similar & variance matters
But it turns out that better prompting can generate pools of good ideas that are almost as diverse as from a group of humans https://t.co/LkGsU0VC7S
NEW: we don’t reflect enough on how severe the housing crisis is, and how it has completely broken the promise society made to young adults.
The situation is especially severe in the UK, where the last time house prices were this unaffordable was in ... 1876.
Brexit has had a hugely negative impact on the UK car industry

"The great problems we have – energy, climate change, defence, inequality, our dependence on production from China – will all be solved by massive investment. Companies that are geared to this renaissance of capital spending will do well." https://t.co/xyD3l93sVX
This JMP is 🤯
Firms are getting *more* specialized and that is causing concentration to rise.
This is a very different story from the popular narrative about conglomerates taking over the world

Curious: have you found ChatGPT useful in doing professional work?
If so, what kinds of prompts and answers have been helpful? Detailed examples greatly appreciated! Broader answer also appreciated
Not in theory, but where you've really *done it*, in your work
Thanks!
This is a critical point. New AI releases tend to look impressive based on examples that go viral on Twitter. But that's not the full picture. For many applications, even a 10% failure rate is too high.

There's no question that these models are quickly getting better. But their ability to sound convincing is getting better just as quickly, which means that it's actually getting harder for even experts to spot when they do make mistakes.
People are excited about using ChatGPT for learning. It's often very good. But the danger is that you can't tell when it's wrong unless you already know the answer. I tried some basic information security questions. In most cases the answers sounded plausible but were in fact BS.
@girdley Good thread and CoS role can absolutely be a career and skill accelerant (I have the data).
But, the role can vary dramatically in focus and responsibilities (second to the CSO in my experience), and if the mandate and set up is not defined and aligned well it can go poorly.
