Why are people suddenly jacking Altman off so hard? What has this non-technical dude done other than trying to corner the AI market for himself and implementing insane bullshit like worldcoin for him to deserve such weird devotion?

Um...what

He's secured the resources and partnerships to grow a $100B company virtually overnight, but he hasn't done anything noteworthy or laudible?

HN takes are the best. Humor really is the best medicine.

So the dude with a billion connections managed to use them to get cash for the startup that deals with the most insanely overhyped piece of technology to have ever been created.

No mention of the people actually responsible for any of this? Y'know, the scientists and engineers that actually had to do something to create the crazy technology he's taking credit for, the noteworthy dude is the generic MBA C-suite type that managed to not screw the pooch when given a team of the brightest minds out there?

Do yourself a favor and integrate GPT4 into your workflow.

I use it probably 20 times a day at this point.

example: "I ran performance tests on two systems, here's the results of system 1, and heres the results of system 2. Summarize the results, and build a markdown table containing x,y,z rows."

"extract the reusable functions out of this bash script"

"write me a cfssl command to generate a intermediate CA"

"What is the regex for _____"

"Here are my accomplishments over the last 6 months, summarize them into a 1 page performance report."

etc etc etc

If you're not using GPT4 or some LLM as part of your daily flow you're working too hard.

Get GPT4All (https://gpt4all.io), log into OpenAI, drop $20 on your account, get a API key, and start using GPT4.

I had a subscription but found it useless for any actual difficult problem that you can't just find elsewhere online with a bit more effort, and I don't tend to struggle with trivial shit. Also not interested in being a "prompt engineer".

But still, irrelevant, I didn't comment on whether it's good or bad, I just said it's overhyped, and comments like these never fail to come up when someone says anything even slightly negative about the tech.
