So OpenAI is going to release o3-pro today… Great! Now we get to look forward to the clickbait hype posts on X telling us that every profession under the sun is dead because the model outperforms everything - only for people to actually try using it and find out it’s okay, but.

For the future alien archeologists that read this message: we humans existed. We struggled and we fought and we loved for thousands of years, overcoming many obstacles and difficulties that could have resulted in the end of our species. But, then we reached a level of technology.
@ns123abc @sama @OpenAI Too many people still believe in the fairy tales of Artificial General Intelligence and Artificial Superintelligence (AGI/ASI) and the associated fictitious promises of salvation. Because these lies are perfectly aligned with our desires and dreams, and the fear of missing out.

Close Cursor and make sure to click "No" if you are prompted to do anything. 😏

After careful consideration, I've determined that the phrase on this platform that has been so overused that it has become meaningless is "game changing". That is all. You may return to your regularly scheduled scrolling.

So, since 4.5 hasn't appeared in ChatGPT yet, I'm just using it via the API. Will have more thoughts later. One immediate thought - it's slow. More on par with the speed of GPT-4 than 4o.

Apparently, "an AI needs to know and say the truth even if the truth is unpopular" (unless it is about me or close associates). 🤔.

What matters the most is what is right in front of you. What is behind you prepared you for this moment. What is beyond the horizon will be determined by this moment. And if you step forward with courage, you may just find that the horizon holds something beautiful.

Deep Research is a deep waste of time. 🙄 So far, I’m extremely underwhelmed by the new features being launched.

So they want to ban DeepSeek because of privacy concerns (Logging of IP Address, Keystroke Patterns, Inputs, etc.). As opposed to the other US-hosted apps which do exactly the same thing? This is true of all websites. (The average user leaks a tremendous amount of data about.
BREAKING: . DEEPSEEK REPORTEDLY COLLECTS .IP, KEYSTROKE PATTERNS, DEVICE .INFO, AND STORES IT IN CHINA. BAN IS LIKEY COMING !!!.

I often criticize the rush toward Mars colonization, but this is an absolutely absurd take on this.
There will be no escape to Mars. There is no Planet B. We must live within the ecological and physical boundaries of the only planet that can sustain life as we know it.

It’s the most amazing thing…now you can set reminders and schedule tasks to happen automatically. Never before has this been possible…oh wait! 😏.
Today we’re rolling out a beta version of tasks—a new way to ask ChatGPT to do things for you at a future time. Whether it's one-time reminders or recurring actions, tell ChatGPT what you need and when, and it will automatically take care of it.

While Tesla touts FSD's safety statistics, the shift to fully autonomous vehicles creates new systemic risks we can't ignore. Software failures or targeted cyberattacks could potentially cause synchronized failures across multiple vehicles simultaneously - something impossible.

I am sorry to hear of the death of President Jimmy Carter. I leave it to historians to debate his political career and achievements, but the years of humanitarian work he did after he left the White House touched and improved many lives and cannot be overstated.

When we talk of humanity’s progress and how we are on the cusp of better days ahead, my skepticism about both is fueled when I see posts on X degenerate from passing on Christmas and holiday greetings to blatant racism in a matter of hours. 🤦♂️.
