Meta putting up tents to house data centers is the most Elon-like thing they have done in a long time.

@AutomateShow How long until the robots advance enough that they will want to take selfies with the humans?

@chrisuniverse @emollick posted about the AI Innovation paper I mentioned: https://t.co/rpCZQsXiW7

[Ethan Mollick @emollick]

Paper shows that AI (in this case a diffusion model) accelerates innovation. Among key findings:
1) GenAI increases novel discoveries: a 39% increase in patent filings!
2) It boosts the best performers by acting as a co-intelligence
3) It takes away some of the fun parts of work

Somewhere in California:
"No, no, we're not going to call it Mostly Harmless Superintelligence, Inc."

"Well then, how about we call it... Safe Superintelligence, Inc. so people know that it is... safe?"

AI is creating more jobs.... for CSS developers who make shiny AI buttons. ✨

@QuickTechPro @timsandle The article mentions the University of Minnesota, while overlooking perhaps that the University of Minnesota has had a DMARC reject policy for multiple years and is one of the only 7.8% of EDUs with that status.

Today's hypothetical airline:
"You check, we fly" airlines. The latest in low cost airlines, where you do the maintenance for a lower fare.

@kevinbaker Using it that way is a choice. They can just as easily ask ChatGPT to question their question and assumptions, so that they will have an opportunity to learn something. Tell them it's like practicing a musical instrument, they need to put in the time...

Three findings from a trial use of a GPT-4 tutor for Harvard's intro CS course:
1) Students found it useful (88% found it helpful) & used it a lot
2) The AI made mistakes, even with RAG (81% accurate)
3) It was pretty cheap
Lots of potential but R&D needed https://t.co/3Q13zvkhFf

@d_feldman How about teaching your criteria for inclusion in the list to a custom GPT (with web browsing abilities)? I think the custom GPT app store is opening this week. That way you could have it keep itself up to date.

[Jeffrey Williams @jtw995]

@FrankieS2727 @AlexReibman @yikesawjeez Same! I've learned some things that don't work while building 4 custom GPTs. I'm happy to join a hackathon, and I'm looking for opportunities to present about AI and the future.

[Jeffrey Williams @jtw995]

@gdb Will you review them like you would with externally developed apps, or will you lean in and publish guidance and sample prompts to help staff make them compliant with various compliance standards like GDPR, FERPA, etc and to use corporate SSO instead of local authentication.

[Jeffrey Williams @jtw995]

@gdb Future citizen developers may instead be citizen GPT-4 prompters. Is this likely? YES. People are already doing it.
The real question is what are you going to do and what is your company going to do to address the security risks introduced by the new apps?
