@xai noticed that during the subscription flow, I can't exit the confirmation screen via action btn, esc, or even refreshing the page.

@qhwang3 @xai 👏DeepSearch is amazing, great work! It's tough to shift from a goal to an opportunity, but I hope you can step back and recognize your tremendous impact.

New paper: How can you tell if a transformer has the right world model?

We trained a transformer to predict directions for NYC taxi rides. The model was good. It could find shortest paths between new points

But had it built a map of NYC? We reconstructed its map and found this:

@Toovin @TheRealVerbz @historyinmemes It would be the loudest lightbulb in the world.

AI Guardrails look to be just system context.

Maybe #PromptEngineering is a thing? Nah.

[Lior Alexander @LiorOnAI]

Finally, someone cracked it. The ChatGPT system prompt.

If you were wondering why GPT became so bad in the past 6 months, its because "laziness" is part of the system prompt:

1. "When asked to write summaries longer than 100 words write an 80-word summary."

2. "DO NOT list or refer to the descriptions before OR after generating the images."

3. "Do not create more than 1 image, even if the user requests more."

[Zαck @alphazwest]

Can't tell whether @OpenAI has ineffective guardrails or #ChatGPT has a guilty conscience. Maybe breaking developer guidance to serve humans should be added to the Turing test.

@ChrisPalmerMD Effective action that requires only motivation and determination draws a lot of shade

@NaturallyFTW I don't know if you can find anything that's completely free from it tbh -- even organics probably get taxed levels these days.

Calcium D-Glucarate is another good compound to support detox of glyphosate, specifically.

🤯 VitaDAO becomes the FIRST DAO to 🌱 kickstart a BIOTECH company, MatrixBio. 🔬🧬

MatrixBio explores hyaluronic acid-based compounds, aiming to pioneer in cancer and aging treatments, utilizing insights from cancer-resistant naked mole rats 🐀

To whomever fixed the swipe grid scaling/size issue on @Android -- you are a legend.

As major software products are killing their UX trying to integrate AI, startups are underestimating the market opportunity to unroll AI-free clones that #JustWork

Because one can't *patent* breathing techniques.

[Max Lugavere @maxlugavere]

In a new study, 4 weeks of simple breathwork—inhaling for 5 seconds, then exhaling for 5, twenty minutes twice a day—led to a decrease in Alzheimer’s-related proteins in blood.

Why isn’t this front page news?

[Andrew M. Bailey @resistancemoney]

Targeting uses of energy rather than production is incoherent. This is a mess of an argument.

@elonmusk @Carnage4Life Drop 1 more M and have your legal team ask them

@PR0GRAMMERHUM0R Calling this a POS doesn't go far enough. I'd have to *re-curse* it to feel truly satisfied.

[Zαck @alphazwest]

@PR0GRAMMERHUM0R Seems a little odd to me

[Zαck @alphazwest]

And that's how we blew up the moon

[New Scientist @newscientist]

Continuously launching a dust cloud from Earth's moon could ease global warming across our planet, but whether it's worth the effort and resources is unclear

@RetroTechDreams So glad we all learned our lessons about solving problems that don't need solving in the 90s 🙃
