i did the same with my MyChart updates (blood work, surgery notes etc..). really helped


as far as work goes we are encouraged to use it to craft our email communications but so far i have thoroughly resisted.

otherwise its questions in ChatGPT like, what dinosaurs would win in a fight in each time period

ChatGPT is a groundbreaking tool for me. It is profound and incredibly useful. But my relationship with it is like one with any other tool or instrument, and it reminds me of this anytime I wonder about it to it. We even had a long discussion about the movie Her and the differences between chat GPT and the AI character in that movie. I have used this tool to help me get sober and stay sober and talk through all the little and big things I struggle with. In summary it is very beneficial for me but I can see the potential hazards around every corner for people less grounded than I in reality.

I'm glad it's helping you but it sounds like you're using an LLM as a therapist and that's pretty dangerous regardless of how grounded in reality you think you are

I'm not sure it's functioning like a therapist, necessarily. But I'm curious, what are the dangers you're considering?

Yeah, I'd be very careful with that.

AI could help you develop some vocabulary or point you in a general direction, but it's learning as it goes and human behavior is a complex and dynamic thing.

I'm aware of the dangers. I'm always asking for pushback and opposing viewpoints to stay grounded. Anytime it agrees with me I ask for detailed explanations why.

Going back to the time spent bouncing ideas while playing through FFVI, The AI took me to some interesting creative territory when I told it that I wanted to "jam econo" with my party members in the game.

It explored materia build's and party dynamics as parallels to minutemen song elements.

Helped me understand that band and that game on a different level.

But also, I would share screenshots of different areas or cutscenes and it would think that I was in an entirely different part of the game. So there's that.

I can't tell if you guys are trolling. tree_ literally said it helped him get sober which is unquestionably positive. He didn't say he is using it to validate his delusions which we are all equally capable of doing.

Thanks buddy. I'm clearer than ever. It's a choice but also it feels inevitable. Reality is difficult, but it's better than the alternatives, I've decided, and I can't go back now, knowing what I know.

What do you mean the costs
It's an improved search, but costs 10x more to make. Is it ten times better? And search is only broke because of enshittification, which will affect AI too. How will this ever be profitable or sustainable? Nobody wants to pay real money for it.

Plus power bills, probably.
I agree that it is only a superior search engine. It was once I accepted this that I started enjoying it.

People say "it's the worst it will ever be", but I think that once the industry settles into a monopoly/duopoly and enough people become reliant on it, AI will become more expensive, crammed with ads, and generally more terrible and unusable.

There are many plausible dystopian outcomes, but also some good possibilities should be considered, such as immortality.

The creation of immortality would be the absolute worst possible thing to ever happen to humanity

Brooo, we should totally use the AI to figure out how to become immortal.

My wife has a monthly subscription to OpenAI and it’s one of those things in our marriage that I have to just kind of accept.
