I compared insurance quotes last week. Needed cover for 2 brands, 1 company. Opus jumps up and down saying both brands need listing on the policy schedule. Human broker said not.
I told opus and it's the usual "thanks you're right" bollocks because it bothered to read in more detail and found that all business activities are covered.
Sadly oversold. I hold little hope for the vision model either now.
Title should be:
"Fable is now included on Max plans (up to 50% of weekly limit) if you actually have any usage left after when you thought it'd be taken off you yesterday"
An example: It just suggested that I shouldn't raise the price of my saas because it'd complicate the arithmetic if I did 0 -> $100k YT channel instead of sticking to $20 p/m.
It's just a complete moron, like all of them.
It really is painful watching.
I've often had to paste its output back in to ask it what it actually means. Weird.
I think the main thing is just fatigue. There's so little variety. Each model has its preferred idiolect which everyone becomes tired of due to ubiquity. That's the worst part. It's like always eating fast food.
This bottleneck will always have to exist unless companies just accept AI defaults, with predictable outcomes.
Christ HN isn't what it used to be
Or if they're retards. The fact this still comes up is weird. A printing press isn't conscious, so why would an LLM be.
Don't forget, some of the bros are overly excitable. Like that twat who reckoned a Google model 5 years ago was conscious.
I know you're trolling, but when you watch a movie do you constantly narrate "A man in a dark coat has just entered the scene and just said '...'"? Of course not. You just watch it and you're obviously conscious (although your statement demonstrates shocking lack of self-awareness).
God knows what other nonsensical bullshit you believe.
1. a universal consciousness,
2. an energy that works through everything, and
3. that we can tap into both.
Been a slow journey from atheism to this, but mainly based on reading countless first-hand descriptions of enlightenment, mostly related to Kundalini experiences and psychedelic-induced. Reported experiences often fall into such similar categories, sometimes with the same symbology it's either something weirdly evolved in us (for no evolutionary advantage I can see), or some people gain access to deeper levels of reality.
Personal experiences for me that tipped it were:
1. My own Kundalini experiences (not the full-blown transcendental kind yet, but energy surges, meditation phenomena)
2. Receiving remote shaktipat, where energy was projected into me. One of the most surprising was when I was just lying down and a woman 10 miles away sent energy to me for half an hour. It was unmistakable, and wasn't possible she had subconsciously influenced me as she barely spoke to me until after the practice apart from telling me to lie down and relax.
Also, I recently worked out how to 'drop my mind' like Zen practioners talk about. Realised that's the core of concentration-style meditation. Good feelings start to arise on their own.
It's a personal journey (and ultimately the only one that counts), and the mind gets in the way, but each to their own.
