What if instead of trying to build an infinite amount of regular sized clips, the superintelligence tries to build a single infinitely large clip? 👀

Jake here thought he was pulling quite the stunt! Jake generated a bunch of AI garbage, put it on the internet, and stole a competitor's traffic because search is miserable.

Jake made the internet measurably worse for... twitter likes? Don't be like Jake.

Results here are interesting. Most people (including those who know prompt engineering) are nice to chatGPT. This could be:

1) it sounds human; people act accordingly 🤖
2) awareness of (very) thin impact on accuracy 📈
3) fear of being turned into paperclips in the future 👀

When using LLMs or chatGPT, are you nice to the model when making requests (think 'please' and 'thank you')? Do you consider you know some amount of prompt engineering?

(Would appreciate if you could share this poll for reach/awareness 🔥)

The vast majority of people out here criticizing Ilya Sutskever for making a crazy hard decision have absolutely no idea what they'd do in those shoes — and let's face it, will probably never face such a consequential question. It is crazy to watch.

If I was Satya I'd be drafting up the contract for a full OpenAI acquisition right now, and I'd bet *so* much money that that's been in consideration all day.
