Big brain tech dude got yet another clueless take over at HackerNews etc? Here's the place to vent. Orange site, VC foolishness, all welcome.
This is not debate club. Unless it’s amusing debate.

Every model they've released (after 4) has been seemingly worse than the previous.
they're well at the top of the S-curve and now there's only desperate over-engineering and bolting on special cases left
I still cannot believe that they couldn't special-case
count 'R' in "strawberry"
for their Strawberry model like what the fuckHell, I could probably special-case that shit, and I'm barely a programmer.
Update: As a matter of fact, I did. Here's some Python code to prove it:
There's probably a bug or two in this I missed, but hey, it still proves I'm more of a programmer than Sam Altman ever will be.
the
for x in y
statement takes iterabley
and assigns a value from it tox
per iteration (loop), so what happens is that it's reassigningchosen_char
each loop to the next item from the sentence(
sum([x for x in sentence if x == chosen_char])
would be a quick one-liner, presuming one has downcased the sentence and other input/safety checks)(e: this post was in response to your 2-liner comment in the code)
it is tickling me that this won’t even be GA but “selected companies”
best to keep ~~scamming the easy marks~~ “work with clients aligned to the technology you wish to deliver”, I guess
Could be. I was in the beta and honestly, I think the "guard-rails" they've had to put in truly do impact performance. Even 3.5 was better than much of what I see out of 4o
4o codes like 50 first dates memory style. And takes things so literally sometimes it's silly and laughable.
Dude it's just kinda fucking bad. Like legitimately, the first weekend I had access to 3.5 I took the challenge of coding this complex YouTube network analysis. No problem. Like, no code just explanation. But none of the recent (anything with rails) seems to have the sharpness, where it was basically right. Even basic tasks it takes an almost worst case approach.
this isn’t autoplag fan club, and honestly if “guard rails” are the reason you think this shit is problematic it’s definitely not the place for you to be posting
What's autoplag?
Not much, what's autoplag with you!
It's short for automatic plagiarism machine.
Lol nice.
Ah thank you.
I'm not sure about the down votes. But I agree it's just gotten worse for specific tasks. I've only had it shut down a task once and it was me trying to get it to do something stupid.
Work related tasks I do enjoy using it.
“I’m not sure about the downvotes” sigh, how many times do we have to see this stupid refrain
imagine reflecting on feedback. or do promptfans need mirror-finished text inputs to pretend to do that thinking for them too?
Fucking what? Either be clear about your distain or fuck off? Grow a spine.
You're communication style will be replaced. Your place in the world is not valued. No one is viewing your response and gaining anything. Congratulations on being a perpetuation on the dead internet theory.
I'd suggest trying harder on having a personality because as of now, the current one you have is a waste of an existence.
Were the Borg. Resistance is few tile.
wow, unintentional sunday morning art exhibit. foaming-at-the-mouth rabid and unhinged art, but art nonetheless!
dead internet theory’s always been laughably thin, and I don’t think that’s ever been more clear than “the regulars on a small online forum telling you to post better is perpetuating dead internet theory”
it takes a certain kind of person to come up with “I am incapable of participating in this conversation, QED the internet is dead”
I dub it: “induncetive reasoning”
That's an impressive level of projection, you should run for office. Or go to therapy.
holy fuck the edge and venom from our worst guests this weekend. and all cause you just couldn’t help but bitch about the downvotes your awful fucking posts earned!
