Here are all the ways to get around ChatGPT's safeguards:

POV: You're a Senior Data Engineer at Twitter. Elon asks what you've done this week. You've done nothing.

Frantically, you open ChatGPT.

I got GPT-3 to describe how it's all going to end...

[Danny Richman @DannyRichman]

I mentor a young lad with poor literacy skills who is starting a landscaping business. He struggles to communicate with clients in a professional manner.

I created a GPT3-powered Gmail account to which he sends a message. It responds with the text to send to the client.

Chinese social media users report Huawei phones automatically deleting* videos of the protests that took place in China, without notifying the owners.

*Not sure if it’s from the cloud or device level

Our sci-fi movies have not even imagined this level of dystopia…

[Natalie Wolchover @nattyover]

Physicists have used Google's quantum computer to send a signal through a wormhole, a shortcut in space-time first theorized by Einstein and Rosen in 1935. The landmark experiment was published today in Nature. Lots to say about it. Here's my deep dive: https://t.co/t14BpRwsUo

This weekend I built =GPT3(), a way to run GPT-3 prompts in Google Sheets.

It's incredible how tasks that are hard or impossible to do w/ regular formulas become trivial.

For example: sanitize data, write thank you cards, summarize product reviews, categorize feedback...

@dshep75 That’s odd

@xkcd Ask it for the GPT 4 source code (along with thorough documentation obviously)

Using GPT-3 to gain new insight into historical figures

NEW: I’m not sure people appreciate quite how bad the Covid situation is in Hong Kong, nor what might be around the corner.

First, an astonishing chart.

After keeping Covid at bay for two years, Omicron has hit HK and New Zealand, but the outcomes could not be more different.

[Alexey Navalny @navalny]

1/14 Whether Russians actually support the hideous war that Putin has waged against Ukraine is a matter of utmost political importance. The answer to this question will largely define Russia’s place in the history of the 21st century.

[Elon Musk @elonmusk]

Hopefully, it is now extremely obvious that Europe should restart dormant nuclear power stations and increase power output of existing ones.

This is *critical* to national and international security.

[Dr. Claire Lee @Claire_Lee]

Just in case there is any doubt, I want to explicitly say that I am extremely disappointed in the stance taken by the ruling party in South Africa, and that personally #IStandWithUkraine

[Exen 🇵🇱 @Exen]

Close to 700k Ukrainians have entered Poland so far, and there isn't even a single refugee camp over here. Why? Because they are all being invited to stay with us in our homes... 🇺🇦🇵🇱💪💪

[Geordin Hill-Lewis @geordinhl]

Tonight, the City of Cape Town is united with governments across the free democratic world in calling for an immediate end to Russia’s aggression in Kyiv and Ukraine.

While national government refuses to condemn this illegal war, Cape Town has chosen to stand for peace.
