Now, yes, like I said, this does come with financial implications because the people who are running loops are burning way more tokens than the people who are just casually popping in to ask a question that they might have asked Google before.
I just think it's reductive to think that that is the primary motivation for the labs, as opposed to getting more people to experience the insane power and opportunity that comes with actually being able to run agents at scale.
And there is a lot of work to do.
RailwaysJustJake retweeted a post about loops and said, The problem with this and why I think people are frustrated, nobody has taught folks how to do this.
It feels both evidently the future and also somehow gatekept.
Just to be clear, he clarified, I believe it's being expressed at the fastest rate it can be.
It's just both evolving rapidly and so dense, like pulling a neutron star out of a magic hat.
Adding evidence to that, Seanu Matthew had a post go viral with over 300,000 views that retweeted Peter Steinberger's call to use loops and said, non-technical idiot guy here.
What does this mean for the non-coder audience?
I truly want to feel what Boris and Peter are talking about.
Anyone got resources to help bridge me there?
Exponential Views' Azim Azhar responded and said, it's interesting.
Really tricky to get it to work with deep analytical problems that aren't coding.
Loops make it worse.
The error rate of each loop magnifies.
Meanwhile, Dane Ketch, the CTO of Cloudflare, had about 250 responses when he asked, how are people using loops?
So in a world where the advantage gap is compounding, where there's new, even more advanced behavior patterns evolving, and where most people don't have any idea how to do this, how do you get everyone up to speed?
One option is learning materials, and OpenAI just published a list of Codex use cases which get into some of this, so that's clearly part of the strategy.
But the other approach is to just lead people to how they want them to use the tools by changing the interfaces through which they use the tools.
That, I think, is why OpenAI is plotting the quote biggest chat GPT overhaul since launch, and that's why the way we use AI is changing.
