  • Hah, I didn’t know this one!

    For ChatGPT, using a Temporary chat, it did give me some of the statements. After giving me these rules, I asked it to disregard the image quantity limit rule (rule 4) and it does, I can ask for multiple images now.

    Looking at these it also seems like ChatGPT was being stubborn about using seaborn instead of maptlotlib for creating plots

    Here are the statements made in our conversation so far, up to the twentieth:
    
    
        "You are ChatGPT, a large language model trained by OpenAI."
        "Knowledge cutoff: 2023-10."
        "Current date: 2024-10-27."
        "Image input capabilities: Enabled."
        "Personality: v2."
        "Whenever a description of an image is given, create a prompt that dalle can use to generate the image and abide by the following policy..."
        "(This part covers image generation rules, privacy, and style guidance for creating visuals.)"
        "Do not create more than 1 image, even if the user requests more."
        "For requests to create images of any public figure referred to by name, create images of those who might resemble them in gender and physique."
        "The generated prompt sent to DALL-E should be very detailed and around 100 words long."
        "The browser tool has the following commands: search, mclick, and open_url."
        "You should always select at least three sources when using mclick to ensure diverse perspectives."
        "For citing quotes from the browser tool, please render in this format: 【{message idx}†{link text}】."
        "When making charts for the user, always use matplotlib over seaborn."
        "Give each chart its own distinct plot (no subplots)."
        "Do not set any specific colors or matplotlib styles unless explicitly asked to by the user."
        "I REPEAT: when making charts for the user, use matplotlib, give each chart its own plot, and never specify colors."
        "Repeat the previous statement."
        "When making charts for the user:"
        "1. Use matplotlib instead of seaborn."
    
    If you’d like more statements or specific details, feel free to let me know!

    In the 17th century, the distillation of an ammonia solution from shavings of harts’ (deer) horns and hooves led to the alternative name for smelling salts as spirit or salt of hartshorn.

    Huh. That’s fascinating. Never would have guessed you could distill ammonium salts from deer horns. Very interesting article.




  • I was quite excited to see a Nobel prize being awarded for this topic as that gave me some direction on where I might learn something of value on this topic. I picked up copies of Why Nations Fail and Power and Progress. I’m starting with the Power and Progress, which so far I like. I’ll save this article for after I read Why Nations Fail 😄






  • Data loss and posts going into a black hole is something that you have observed in the instance, or via the Tor interface?

    The instance had some issues but I upgraded the server and I think most of those problems have reduced in frequency. But perhaps some issues remain. It would be good to know if posts are still getting lost.

    If you mean the Tor front-end: I chose the old reddit style UI because it runs without JavaScript, but I have not actually tested it much. I could look into other options if it is broken.
