whenever my ego grows too big I spend an hour with someone in Ops
@andrewchen 15 years of building community at @reddit between total strangers behind psuedonyms all over the world has me convinced that we still drastically overvalue in-person interaction. Plus, the tools are still being developed to make the remote experience better.
Today we open sourced GPT Explorer https://belay-labs.github.io/gpt-explorer/introducing-gpt-explorer @cathykaic @zan2434 @gdb @OpenAI #GPT3
In the meantime, Cade Metz hasn't published anything since June 16th aside from two (presumably pre-written) obits. The entire NY Times tech desk has also not published a single word on GPT-3, the biggest tech story of the summer. NY Times tech, are y'all OK?
