@UberUKI_Support I ordered with Uber Eats yesterday but it auto-completed the wrong address for delivery. I tried to change it immediately but your chatbot misunderstood the request and then when I tried to cancel it said I'd be charged the full amount. Can you help please?

Congratulations to @SpaceX for the IFT-3 test.

This is still one of the most iconic shots of every Starship launch.

@Rainmaker1973 It may be too far beyond present technology to get it cheaply down to Earth. But why not carefully crash it into the Moon before there are too many people there, and get several benefits?

With many 🧩 dropping recently, a more complete picture is emerging of LLMs not as a chatbot, but the kernel process of a new Operating System. E.g. today it orchestrates:

- Input & Output across modalities (text, audio, vision)
- Code interpreter, ability to write & run programs
- Browser / internet access
- Embeddings database for files and internal memory storage & retrieval

A lot of computing concepts carry over. Currently we have single-threaded execution running at ~10Hz (tok/s) and enjoy looking at the assembly-level execution traces stream by. Concepts from computer security carry over, with attacks, defenses and emerging vulnerabilities.

I also like the nearest neighbor analogy of "Operating System" because the industry is starting to shape up similar:
Windows, OS X, and Linux <-> GPT, PaLM, Claude, and Llama/Mistral(?:)).
An OS comes with default apps but has an app store.
Most apps can be adapted to multiple platforms.

TLDR looking at LLMs as chatbots is the same as looking at early computers as calculators. We're seeing an emergence of a whole new computing paradigm, and it is very early.

This 🤯 is a very big 🤯

I have access to the new GPT Code Interpreter. I uploaded an XLS file, no context:

"Can you do visualizations &amp; descriptive analyses to help me understand the data?

"Can you try regressions and look for patterns?"

"Can you run regression diagnostics?"

It is hard to overstate how much practical AI adoption is about to grow by Microsoft putting AI into every Office app (take a look at the thread).

The huge productivity gains that have been seen in early controlled AI trials, and the changes to jobs that will result, are coming.

I can't prophesy whether @BorisJohnson's prophecies or @DanielJHannan's https://t.co/vNk9MAcPCH will come to pass. But I can say that the world view underlying the former is true, while the one underlying the latter is false.

It's up to us.

A better AI makes fewer mistakes.

A better AGI makes *more* mistakes. And corrects some of them by creative and critical thinking. Or by creatively seeking out interactions with the world and thinking about those. Or sometimes by creatively thinking about what other people say.

Excellent report on the decline of #CrystalPalace @luxmy_g @BBCNews Spent 12 great years living in CP and the sports stadium was a big part of that. Tragic that the authorities have let the stadium fall into ruin. #InvestNow ✌✌

@antonioguterres Unlimited growth is the only possible solution to the reality that is an unending stream of problems life encounters. People must grow knowledge to discover more resources in the battle to survive in an uncaring universe. Finiteness anywhere, is death: https://t.co/V8exYCYmK1

this new system from AI21 is *exactly* what I have been arguing for: Deep Learning as one tool among many, and it looks like it may signal a huge victory for Neurosymbolic hybrids over pure Large Language Models.
