We have all had those days when we were looking over all the items in our refrigerator and cannot decide what to cook. I can't tell you how many hours of my life I have wasted due to this seemingly simple problem. This is what inspired me to create ChefGPT.
In late 2023, OpenAI, the company behind ChatGPT announced that they were opening the door to allow users to create their own Custom GPTs that can be used by others in ChatGPT. OpenAI laid out a plan to open a GPT Store to allow developers to showcase their creations and allow other ChatGPT Plus customers to make use of their custom GPTs. Over the past few weeks, I have been working on a number of custom GPTs that I plan to list on the ChatGPT store when it goes live later this week. As part of this launch, I will be publishing a series of blog posts to highlight my GPTs and provide tips and instructions on how to make use of my GPTs. I have been dog-fooding my custom GPTs for the past few weeks and there are some genuinely fun and useful GPTs that I cannot wait for people to try.
On a late Friday night blog post, OpenAI, a leading AI research lab known for its groundbreaking work in artificial intelligence, abruptly dismissed its CEO, Sam Altman. Regardless of whether you liked Sam Altman or not, this news sent shockwaves through the AI industry, followed by several high-profile resignations in protest following the announcement. Several sources close to the matter described the termination of Altman as "a coop", and this personally does not sit well with me. While I generally advocate for minimal government intervention in private businesses, there are certain situations where this stance must be reconsidered. The case of OpenAI's sudden leadership change is one such instance. This blog post argues that the federal government should view this development as a matter of national security, given OpenAI's significant impact on the U.S. economy and technological landscape.
In today's rapidly evolving technological landscape, Generative AI often sparks concern about widespread job displacement. However, it is important to debunk the notion that it aims to eliminate jobs entirely. Instead, Generative AI is a catalyst for personal and professional growth, encouraging individuals to evolve and pursue more fulfilling endeavors.
Throughout history, advancements in technology have rendered certain job roles obsolete. Telephone operators, pony express riders, and many others have experienced this shift. However, these advancements have consistently led to the creation of new jobs, rather than inflating the unemployment rates.
In today's world, Artificial Intelligence (AI) is no longer just a buzzword; it's a part of our daily lives. Whether you're asking the Google Assistant for the weather forecast or using a chatbot for customer service, AI is there to assist you... But have you ever wondered how these interactions feel so smooth and natural? The secret lies in two key techniques: Conversation Design and Prompt Engineering. While these terms may sound technical, they're the backbone of making AI more user-friendly. These two concepts form the backbone of most AI powered customer centric products that leverage large language models, Artificial Intelligence and Generative Artificial Intelligence (GenAI). Let's delve into what each of these means and how they differ.
