Absolutely, every single one of these tools has got less interesting as they refine it so it can only output the platonic ideal of kitsch.

That ChatGPT can be more useful than a web search is really more indicative of how bad the web has got, and can only get worse as fake text invades it. It's not actually better than a functional search engine and a functional web, but the companies making these things have no interest in the web being usable. Pretty depressing.

To be honest, as someone who's very interested in computer generated text and poetry and the like, I find generic LLMs far less interesting than more traditional markov chains because they're too good at reproducing clichés at the exclusion of anything surprising or whimsical. So I don't think they're very good for the unfactual either. Probably a homegrown neural network would have better results.

Yeah, it's always a combination of factors and I have no doubt the stress didn't help, but the idea that OpenAI would put a hit on some guy no one's heard of over his opinions on copyright infringement is laughable. Let's not do that.

my personal theory is he refused makeup because it's an unnatural affectation that could have compromised his bioengineered skincare immortality routine

Humans can't help but return to questions the presocratics already struggled with. Makes me happy.

One particular safety concern is that venture capitalists might covertly pursue misaligned goals, hiding their true capabilities and objectives – also known as scheming. We study whether venture capitalists have the capability to scheme in pursuit of a goal that we provide in-context and instruct the capitalist to strongly follow. We evaluate frontier financiers on a suite of six agentic evaluations where capitalists are instructed to pursue goals and are placed in environments that incentivize scheming.
