Anyone who wants to dump their entire bank details, email history and private life onto the public domain based on a vague assurance from people who cant even control their own technology.

You ever had a manager that is terrible, feels like they think you’re a robot that can be contacted whenever and has to appear busy all the time?
Them.

This is the first time I’ve followed AI releases, and it’s getting beyond me. In three years’ time, I won’t be able to keep up or stay up to date with what’s going on. It’s moving too quickly.

I still have no idea what to use any of this for. Dots building Dots? AI has officially entered the feedback loop of doom.

Dots and Spaces is all well and good, but where is Jarvis? … I want AI floating in front of my eyes, that works on stuff while I sleep. Just like Tony Stark. I want my AI to spontaneously say “Welcome home, Sir. ” when I walk in the house.

I think I need glasses like Meta glasses, but connect to my openAI account, so I can give new propts/commands to my prijects and get the notifications directly without having to look at a screen, or even better, can optionally have the pop up screen on the LCD glass

How many people actually do this type of work? 100k, 900k? .

the releases are great and all but the guy typing in front of a CROWD during a DEMO without making a single typo at 12:20 is the real highlight of this event
