I believe specifically for Microsoft, they did bundle a default replacement for chatGPT in a lot of different places (Bing chat, Copilot) which use OpenAI models! But the end product is notably worse than native interface. There is a bare-minimum-level of usability required.

For chat apps, good enough is good enough. For something as universally useful and easy to use as ChatGPT, the bar is higher. I don't want to comment on the financial feasibility, but whatever Microsoft put out has been a complete flop even when free, making ChatGPT $8 subscription seem worth it in comparison

> But the end product is notably worse than native interface.

That was my point - a lot of superior products were eaten by poor bundled replacements.

Last I checked, copilot has more users than ChatGPT simply because users are using it from within Excel, Word, Outlook and Teams, without even knowing that they are using copilot. It's bundled into Windows.

Right now, copilot is more useful to users than ChatGPT because it is embedded into their workflows.

Copilot doesn't have users. They're rebranding their non-llm offerings as copilot to make it not look like a failure

ChatGPT and all the competitors have the exact same UI and UX.

Honest answer: The pain of setting up an encrypted container. This seems simple, single use and immediately ready to use after downloading.

What if the app set up an encrypted container for you in a similar "immediately ready to use after installation" fashion?

As a developer, I don't want apps to set up containers on my harddrive, but as a end-user it would be same

Maybe another company will take over at time. Why does one company have to stay perfect and on top of game for eternity?

The Silo is a book adaptation, not a new IP.

It's "new" IP in the sense there has been no previous tv show or movie and that is not attached to a large existing franchise. It's not marvel or Star Wars.

That's what I met to convey. Apologies for that.

Can you elaborate on how you use it? I tried googling any mention of it and failed (all reddit posts were deleted). I installed it into sublime but it didn't seem to do anything

To write a blog post! "I used AI to solve this challenging problem" gets more traction than "I solved this challenging problem"

Most universities do not contain sufficient capacity to host both the conference and the overnight stays of thousands of people. Even a major university would face significant disruption by hosting a conference, it is simply not built for it. Building venues at each university doesn’t make sense either because it doesn’t have 100% utilization.

Conference venues provide incentives by having cheap venue rent and minor discount on housing and the city makes money by having more people do fun things in their down time.

Purely from efficiency, disregarding politics or “waste” or “delusion”, conference centers are built for a very rational reason - it makes sense and saves money for event organizers.

also, to answer the original question: yes they are

well that really depends on the metric right?

do you care about quality of life? literacy? about social justice? about women's rights?

or about who has the most richest billionaires or the strongest military?

or who has the best american football teams?

Not every people care about the same things. Some people would rather live in a country that treats others as shit, and take pride in that and absolutely don't see the point why other other countries have some better metrics on some they may consider useless stuff like education.

EDIT: I mean, I know it sounds silly, but failure to understand that there are so many people who literally don't give a shit about why education matters, or why empathy matters is the reason we are in this situation. We took for granted that there are universal values, and organized our societies around goals oriented towards those universal values and in the meantime we got this resentment brewing in part of the population that got exploited by populist forces

This bug can be mitigated via inflation.

That makes it worse as I have to budget enough money for the worst [best?] case life.

The table row with 6k figure refers to high efficiency, not high compute mode. From the blog post:

Note: OpenAI has requested that we not publish the high-compute costs. The amount of compute was roughly 172x the low-compute configuration.
