Jeff Bezos famously only allowed 4 different answers to a question at Amazon: 1. Yes 2. No. 3. A number 4. I don't know, but I'll know it by X If you're uncomfortable saying option 4, you've got work to do.

It is weird to see how the messiness of cultural knowledge production gets even messier in the age of AI. This is a great example: a joke from the Far Side that made its way to actual mental health sites to AI taking it seriously. (Of the LLMs I tested, GPT-4 got the joke)

I have been saying prompt engineering is going away & this paper shows why In a preregistered experiment, GPT4 was better able to solicit user preferences by just asking them questions than users were able to articulate in prompts, with less mental effort arxiv.org/pdf/2310.11589.pdf

Trying to understand the instructions on my new electric toothbrush, in case you wanted to know what that loud wailing was about. The drawings - they make no sense. ๐Ÿ˜ญ (I'm totally new to this so I'm clueless. But you'd have thought they'd allow for that.)
