alt Hacker NewsIt is not a tool. It is an oracle.
It can be a tool, for specific niche problems: summarization, extraction, source-to-source translation -- if post-trained properly.
But that isn't what y'all are doing, you're engaging in "replace all the meatsacks AGI ftw" nonsense.
If I was on the "replace all the meatsacks AGI ftw" team then I would have referred to it as an oracle, by your own logic, wouldn't I have?
It's a tool. It's good for some things, not for others. Use the right tool for the job and know the job well enough to know which tools apply to which tasks.
More than anything it's a learning tool. It's also wildly effective at writing code, too. But, man... the things that it makes available to the curious mind are rather unreal.
I used it to help me turn a cat exercise wheel (think huge hamster wheel) into a generator that produces enough power to charge a battery that powers an ESP32 powered "CYD" touchscreen LCD that also utilizes a hall effect sensor to monitor, log and display the RPMs and "speed" (given we know the wheel circumference) in real time as well as historically.
I didn't know anything about all this stuff before I started. I didn't AGI myself here. I used a learning tool.
But keep up with your schtick if that's what you want to do.
