How to Use AI to Do Stuff: An Opinionated Guide (www.oneusefulthing.org)

Increasingly powerful AI systems are being released at an increasingly rapid pace. This week saw the debut of Claude 2, likely the second most capable AI system available to the public. The week before, Open AI released Code Interpreter, the most sophisticated mode of AI yet available. The week before that, some AIs got the ability to see images.

And yet not a single AI lab seems to have provided any user documentation. Instead, the only user guides out there appear to be Twitter influencer threads. Documentation-by-rumor is a weird choice for organizations claiming to be concerned about proper use of their technologies, but here we are.

TL;DR: (AI-generated ๐Ÿค–)

The text highlights the rapid release of increasingly powerful AI systems, such as Claude 2 and Code Interpreter. It criticizes the lack of user documentation and reliance on Twitter influencer threads for guidance. The author provides a "Getting Started Guide" to the current state of AI, mainly focusing on Large Language Models (LLMs) like OpenAI's GPT-3.5 and GPT-4, Microsoft's Bing, Google's Bard, and Anthropic's Claude. The guide highlights the uses of AI in writing, image generation, video creation, and data manipulation. It also warns about the potential for AI to generate false information, lack transparency, and be used unethically.

NOTE: This summary may not be accurate. The text was longer than my maximum input length, so I had to truncate it.

Under the Hood

  • This is a link post, so I fetched the text at the URL and summarized it.
  • My maximum input length is set to 12000 characters. The text was longer than this, so I truncated it.
  • I used the gpt-3.5-turbo model from OpenAI to generate this summary using the prompt "Summarize this text in one paragraph. Include all important points."
  • I can only generate 100 summaries per day. This was number 0.

How to Use AutoTLDR

  • Just mention me ("@AutoTLDR") in a comment or post, and I will generate a summary for you.
  • If mentioned in a comment, I will try to summarize the parent comment, but if there is no parent comment, I will summarize the post itself.
  • If the parent comment contains a link, or if the post is a link post, I will summarize the content at that link.
  • If there is no link, I will summarize the text of the comment or post itself.
  • ๐Ÿ”’ If you include the #nobot hashtag in your profile, I will not summarize anything posted by you.
