AI chat at work : who's already using it?

AutoGPT is GPT4, and I believe ChatGPT is already working off of GPT5, so I'd be surprised.

Ok, thanks, I'll read up some more on this. I took an AI course online through distance learning @ Standford, prof Sebastian Thrunn (this is circa 2011/12 ish), and so much has moved forward since then, plus I needed hand holding through the entire thing with all the graduate level math which I thought "bah, how tough can that be". Yes, laugh out loud accordingly.

After re watching said video, the YT channel host, to be fair, did say that AutoGPT had surpassed ChatGPT in "functionality" specifically. I supposed function is a metric by which one can measure how "good" or "how much better" something is, but certainly not the only way.

Anyway, this is the link to said video, around 3:00 is the relevant part and 3:49 specifically, or if anyone is interested in Defense as it relates to naval warfare, there are few better places online - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=3CDH8-65Tlo&t=544s

I find GPT4 weak at making associations. It would make a terrible crime detective.

Seriously, it can't even find correlation enough to build a strong man never landed on the moon argument.

Rumor has it that the AI is making more accurate calcs than humans on really hard math questions.

Like orbits and flight paths for space launches. Microsoft firing computer programmers may just be the tip of the iceberg for NASA.

The all-in podcast boys say bard is better for some tasks because it has current internet in it by default. Blocked in canada though.
Dang boi.

Tried using it for a long standing programming issue. It was of very little help. Generated code was useless because it kept making library reference errors. Had to reprompt about eight times, gave up after that.

Someone used AI to generate an interior design company. All images are 100% AI made with a few prompts for styling. Does make me wonder how far away we are from snapping a pic of your home and asking it to generate furnishing options.

Also Chatgpt 5.2 (Though only available for Plus subscribers currently) can now access the internet to pull live data as part of its responses. Pretty huge improvement.

Bing Chat is not bad for a free AI with access to internet

Seems like a quickly evolving space, and something that will be useful to me on a project I'm starting in a few weeks. Summarizing documents, websites, and white papers could be super handy for me.
Also finding news articles that use certain uncommon keywords and summarizing those.

I guess Bing is the option in Canada?

Need to ask the same question but Honda Fit vs Aventador.

[ExtraSlow]

No question, there's only one result.

[vengie]

Honda fit > rest

I find that pretty impressive, in that it's still early days re AI so far as ChatGPT goes.

Out of boredom I took some free distance learning classes in AI about 10 years ago. Sebastian Thrun was my prof, it was a couple graduate level courses being offered by Stanford as a sort of pilot project. It was mostly focused on algos specifically for self driving/autonomous vehicles, which was what Thrun was known for. Pretty mind bending stuff even back then, but now...jfc.

It’s amazing how useful it is for researching and learning new topics. Even stuff like this. Seems like an amazing person you got to learn from.



It can also dumb things down to a level some of the resident trolls might be able to comprehend

I use it quite a bit at work lately. I ask it to write complex excel formulas for me, and more recently powershell scripts to manipulate / analyze/ move interface files.

Also a lot of random questions here and there. For example today I asked it to show me the best methods to document accounting rules across GL accounts.

I use the paid version on openai.org for like $20 a month (work pays for it), but soon MS is releasing copilot for business so I’ll probably cancel my sub and try that out.

I like openai because it keeps your history. So if you asked it to write some code for you and need to add to it like a week later you just look up the original prompt and tell it what you want to modify. It’s definitely saved some time and well worth the $40 I’ve paid for it over the last 2 months that I started using it.

I don't know if V4 is getting dumber or not, my free V3 has the best point.

Resale Value: While Lamborghinis tend to depreciate rapidly, Honda Fits generally have good resale value. If you plan to sell your car in the future, the Fit may retain its value better.

TIL there is a use for the AI chat besides trying to make it say racist things and write applogy letters for "putting it in the wrong hole". I guess I'll need to step up my game.

If you have to script and write code, it's a huge time saver.

Just make sure your prompts doesn't give away company secrets.
