The people who wrote the wrapper for GPT 4.0 must have very unique personalities. But there seem to be different voices. Since NONE of what GPT says is traceable, we will never know, and cannot trust anything that OpenAI does or says. Duplication in the internet and in human global society is horrific. It hurts

Physics @Berkekey: Oct 13 Colloquium: Konrad Lehnert at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=qbqTWe1qBbY Konrad Lehnert, Three axis MEMs gravimeters can be made sensitive enough to measure precisely the vector tidal sun moon signal that is the main part (about 98.5%) of the signal at a superconducting gravimeters station. Using the JPL ephemeris this is just the sun’s acceleration at the

If you decide to read Dana’s Story you can find it at https://www.amazon.com/dp/B09RN1C2W6 As I say, it is a hard read. I did not print books 2 and 3 where Brian, the first sentient AI, is involved. I have copies online and I recorded all three books in my own voice, but those are just in

Google Research: Introducing PaLM 2, Google’s next generation large language model | Research Bytes at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=yAANQypgOo8 I was head to head testing OpenAI and Bard. Bard is not even close. It simply refused to try. If you open Google research and operations, transparency might let the world see what you are doing, help you with plans,

Richard: I am reading Jackson’s “Classical Electrodynamics” again. Looking at the fundamental assumptions and limitations of his times. At the very beginning he is talking about electrostatic fields and he says Curl (E) = 0 and says “this is equivalent to saying that E is the gradient of a scalar electric potential” But soon he

Richard: We talked before a bit about teaching AIs to use software, rather than trying to write it. There are a few ten million humans out of the 5 Billion using the Internet who try to write software, scripts and automation. Forcing billions of humans to become programmers, just to use computers is not an
