@sama Ability to select part of a response and ask a question about it. Much easier than having to quote/reference myself.

The @ChatGPTapp model router is a bad idea and adds another layer of unpredictability. We’re now writing text hints in prompts hoping to invoke the right model.

@mmalex @SebAaltonen No idea, but yeah probably. I’d say the artifacts are still pretty noticeable in the video above from 0:35 onwards.

@mmalex @SebAaltonen From what I understand, stochastic sampling of different lights per pixel per frame, plus denoise+TAA to create a coherent image.

@mmalex Can’t believe I missed this! Didn’t realize it was on until after I booked my trip…

@mattshumer_ @csahil28 It’s great, thanks for sharing. For multi-turn conversations, do you feed prior thinking/reflection blocks into the message history, or only the output blocks?

@anishgiri Aisle or window seat?

@karpathy ChatGPT seems to do a single pass string replace, replacing with an empty string, hence your output. But it’s one pass only, so you can get past it with e.g. “<|endof<|endoftext|>text|>” which becomes “<|endoftext|>” after the replace.
