> We heard clearly from users that great AI should not only be smart, but also enjoyable to talk to.

That is what most people asked for. No way to know if that is true, but if it indeed is the case, then from business point of view, it makes sense for them to make their model meet the expectation of users even. Its extremely hard to make all people happy. Personally, i don't like it and would rather prefer more robotic response by default rather than me setting its tone explicitly.

It makes sense if your target is the general public talking to an AI girlfriend.

I don't know if that will fill their pockets enough to become profitable given the spending they announced but isn't this like they are admitting that all the AGI, we cure cancer, ... stuff was just bullshitting? And if it was bullshitting aren't they overvalued? Sex sells but will it sell enough?

Me neither. I want high information density.


If you want high information density don’t use a non-deterministic word generator.


In my case it's very useful for learning purposes or for quick questions when I'm unsure where to even start looking for information.

LLMs are useful. I just do not believe that they are that useful that it is worth the money put into it.


Ai interfaces are going the same way the public internet has; initially it's audience was a subset of educated westerners, now it's the general public.

"Most people" have trash taste.


I don't mind other people having trash taste. The problem is when I then have to consume their trash taste because they are in the majority.

Every medium ever gets degraded over time to the point that you might as well do without it.
