[Harvard Business Review @HarvardBiz]

Many managers view strategy as a complex subject, but at its essence it boils down to three questions: Where are we now? Where do we want to go? What is a credible path to get there? https://t.co/pSZoVUBC6y

Managers who know how to coach employees:
- Ask questions instead of providing answers.
- Support employees instead of judging them.
- Facilitate development instead of dictating what needs to be done. https://t.co/MvAIUuwUhe

Rob Lynch described on X (Twitter) an interesting experiment on a phenomenon that Ethan Mollick labeled the "AI Winter Break Hypothesis"

⚗ OpenAI's GPT-4-turbo over the API produces (statistically significant) shorter completions when it "thinks" its December vs. when it thinks its May (as determined by the date in the system prompt). I took the same exact prompt over the API (a code completion task asking to implement a machine learning task without libraries).

I created two system prompts, one that told the API it was May and another that it was December and then compared the distributions.

🔬 For the May system prompt, mean = 4298

🔬 For the December system prompt, mean = 4086

N = 477 completions in each sample from May and December t-test p < 2.28e-07 To reproduce this you can just vary the date number in the system message. Would love to see if this reproduces for others.

🛋 We've heard all your feedback about #GPT4 getting lazier! We haven't updated the model since Nov 11th, and this certainly isn't intentional.
Model behavior can be unpredictable, and we're looking into fixing it.

To be clear, the idea is not that the model has somehow changed itself since Nov 11th. It's just that differences in model behavior can be subtle -- only a subset of prompts may be degraded, and it may take a long time for customers and employees to notice and fix these patterns

💵 So back to work - GPT-4 won't be much help for now, unless you can motivate it - Theia Vogel recently reported that ChatGPT gives longer responses if you 'tip it $200. So Even bots are tip-shaming. [no joke either...]
