I was thinking the other day as a kid I would always pester my parents with questions like "how does lightning work?" etc etc. My world view was formed with answers based on what they understood. And sometimes I'm sure they'd just make something up when they didn't know the answers.
Anyway, I guess that's so different now when kids have internet devices in their hands and now even moreso with an AI assistant that has the worlds knowledge
It would be ironic if we spent so many resources prompting and scouring the solar system for intelligence that it extinguishes ours. Those humans and their dopamine hit fueled curiosity O_o
Life seeded out of the way, far out in the uncharted backwaters of the unfashionable end of the western spiral arm of the Galaxy around a small unregarded yellow sun.
Life has launched an interstellar probe that will be in range of your sensors soon.
Would you like to write a fun research paper on the subject?
I guess the discussion would turn into a philosophical one about what the other person's conscience even means, and/or if other people are indeed conscient :)
I'd say it's a lot higher than this. This is just the reported numbers.
I live in London and I'm fairly careless. Yesterday when I hopped onto a bus a driver told me I was crazy for holding my phone out infront of me and that it would be snatched if I kept that up.
I could list 10 people I know that have had their phone stolen at some point in the last few years. I've also seen it happen several times. It's very common.
There's a bit of a difference to me between a calculator and writing.. Creativity. Words aren't just a vessel for ideas. If there were different calculation structures etc and space for people to develop their own styles and approaches to calculate things, then sure.
A person's writing style is developed through what they read. And if human's writing style becomes more homogeneous through AI then that's sort of a shame.
The web_search tool and MCP discovery is essentially a global directory.
Now when I ask ChatGPT for a product, it does a web_search tool call and then gives me a link to a webshop product page. But next step would be automatically using the MCP of that webshop to embed checkout inside chat.
afaik Claude already has a "discovery" tool for official Claude connectors, that's why a lot of companies are rushing to get on the marketplaces.
I know that bc I'm the founder of https://manufact.com and we helped a ton of companies with that.
