Learn in simple terms how ChatGPT works and why people are still needed robbie.antenesse.net

It's more important than ever to understand what ChatGPT and other AI tools like it are actually doing when they talk to us and write for us. I worked with some Large Language Models and GPTs and dug into what they're doing, and I wrote this article. I try to explain in the simplest terms possible what modern AIs actually are and how exactly they construct their content so we can move past the fear and confusion about what AI is capable of and start using it for what it's actually good for. Please arm yourself with knowledge and understanding, and share this with someone who worries about AI taking over their job (or even the whole world)!

    Holy smokes, 2?? Obviously see inside empty containers and teleport up to 7 inches!

    I'd give anything to be able to tell at a glance what boxes I don't need to open when looking for something and get out of nearly any tight spot or tangle.

    I compiled a master dictionary of all the unique words from pu and ku and made an Anki deck to use! https://ankiweb.net/shared/info/1075479788

    Last month, I set out to collect all of the unique words in the toki pona language, including new words from ku and a few common combination words, with thorough definitions tied to each word into one master list. This deck is compiled from the dictionary section in pu merged with 2 other dictionaries I found online: - http://tokipona.net/tp/ClassicWordList.aspx - https://devurandom.xyz/tokipona/dictionary.html - https://devurandom.xyz/tokipona/13.html I also pulled a couple definitions from jan Misali's video on ku: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=n3p4-GFXrkM Finally, the master list itself is available in text format here if you're interested in that instead of the shared Anki deck: - [toki pona ku.txt direct download](https://hub.alamantus.com/index.php/s/CHKqqeFg7GF795c/download) _Note that the list and deck do not include country names and other proper nouns that had examples given in pu and ku, only the distinct toki pona words._ (I tried posting this the other day, but the original flashcards service I was using, Flashcards.io, stopped working for sharing decks, so I figured it was high time I just used the correct software—it was much easier than I expected!)

    I really enjoyed jan Misali's old 12-part YouTube series: https://www.youtube.com/playlist?list=PLjOmpMyMxd8T9lZjF36c4mn4YgwZ4ToT6

    They're working on a new one to reflect changes and updates to the language over the years and currently have one episode out: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=2EZihKCB9iw

    I have a whole section on my personal site for free ideas! robbie.antenesse.net

    They're all video games right now, but I love them and would love to see them become a thing. I have a couple other ideas rattling around that I might add soon, but I'm holding on to them in case I suddenly get extra time and inspiration.

    How to Leave Google Photos robbie.antenesse.net

    I wrote this comprehensive guide about how to handle Google Takeout in order to export your Google Photos before Google's free high quality photo storage goes away next year and how to subsequently make your export usable. It's intended for all audiences, but the overall message skews toward de-googling. It also includes a link to a program I wrote to help people trying to take the steps in the post so they can skip the hard work if they want. :)

    Just my personal portfolio and blog. I don't post too extremely often, but I've got a post I'm working on that'll go live soon! It's nice and light, and I love the style no matter how "old web" it might feel :D
