We got OpenAI's 2023 Form 990 IRS filing and there are some interesting details — such as that CEO Sam Altman received $76k in compensation last year, and Emmett Shear, who was interim CEO for a few days during Altman’s ouster, got $3,720. www.bloomberg.com/news/article...

The modest sum was one of a number of disclosures the nonprofit made this week.

Demanding that people go back to the office five days a week has been shown to punish staff who are lower-income, parents, and disabled. It is also not necessary for reporters and journalists who do much of their work in the field, on the phone, or on laptop computers that can be used anywhere.

Please help my family solve this Trader Joe’s frozen tamale math problem. If you eat the two tamales in the package, where are the additional 10 calories coming from?!

“After years of pushing out increasingly sophisticated AI products at a breakneck pace, three of the leading AI companies are now seeing diminishing returns from their costly efforts to build newer models.”

Hear me out: “Home Alone” still slaps! (Watching it with my 8yo this weekend and it with the exception of some obvious plot holes — like how did they happen to have all those mannequins just lying around? — it’s still so funny.)

I started using twitter actively about 6 or so years after signing up for it so if that’s any indication, I should get the hang of this one by roughly 2030. Roughly.

Guess who's back?👀 @shiringhaffary.bsky.social has the scoop on the return of OpenAI co-founder Greg Brockman, who took a 3-month leave from his role as president. This brings a key figure back to the C-suite amid an exodus of top executives. www.bloomberg.com/news/article... via @bloomberg.com

using LLMs as a search engine
Two men are having a conversation, one of whom is labeled with a ChatGPT logo. The other asks him "how many days are in a year" and the conversation grows increasingly heated as the ChatGPT man refuses to provide a simple generalized answer. Eventually, the asker throws a chair in frustration, and ChatGPT doubles down.
