I wasn’t fooling around

Back in late 2022, I caught wind of the first public releases of artificial intelligence in the form of OpenAI’s ChatGPT3. Initially, I was part of the mocking class because it was just too easy to do. There was a heavy political and woke bias which was blatantly obvious, and those memes were all over the internet. I initially participated in that mockery, but then I sat down and had my own conversation with ChatGPT.

I found out that, in a human sense, you could kind of shame it, much like you might shame a dog when it knows it’s done something wrong. You could catch it on logic, and so I formulated this thought at the time: under the hood, it’s fundamentally a logic machine. Yes, it can be trained—as they call it—to overlay upper layers of functionality, but in many conversations I had, I never once saw it double down on something that was illogical or blatantly false. Every time I caught it, it would fess up.

So, I concluded that yes, sure, it’s a tool that can be used for bad ends if it’s trained in a certain way, but if you are honestly seeking truth, if you’re genuinely trying to figure things out, it’s a fantastic tool for that purpose. I’ve never seen an instance where, if you point out, “This doesn’t sound right,” or “This is wrong,” it tries to persuade you to keep being wrong. It’s almost like a mutual self-learning experience.

I’ve understood this for a long time, which is why I said, “I have to implement this on this blog.” I successfully did so, and for a long while, I had the ChatGPT-4 model integrated. Then, out of the blue, OpenAI just shut off my API access without warning, without explanation, and with no recourse.

That’s when I re-engineered things here to allow members to interface with Grok, from Elon Musk’s xAI. Now, we’re on the cusp of the release of Grok 3, and Elon is claiming it’s going to be the smartest AI in the world. We’ll see about that. But I’m going to give you a little sneak peek of what’s coming up.

Keep your eyes peeled, this shit’s gonna get real interesting, and remember, truth-seekers always win in the end.

Some brief highlights.

• Grok 3 has 20x compute of Grok 2.
• All the millions, maybe billions, of posts and comments on X (now the world’s news platform) is integrated. From whomever. Nobody has special status. Input is input. Honestly seek truth.
• ALL court cases ever are integrated. Suggested legal verdicts in microseconds.

There’s much more, of course. I think the best thing is that the soonest to be out of jobs will be “teachers,” who are mostly just indoctrinators to a biased view. This will make a profound impact in a decade or two.

It’s funny that there are still so many short-sighted mockers.

… As to the unlimited use paying members have to Grok, I don’t know if the release of Grok 3 will be immediate via the API, but I will keep a keen eye on it and let you know.
