I mean, we're happy to admit when we're wrong.

We want to get better and better.

I think we're pretty good about trying to listen to every piece of criticism, think it through, internalize what we agree with.

But like the breathless clickbait headlines, you know, try to let those flow through us.

We do have systems that try to figure out, you know, try to learn when a question is something that we're supposed to – we call it refusals, refuse to answer.

It is early and imperfect.

We're, again, the spirit of building in public and –

And bring society along gradually.

We put something out.

It's got flaws.

We'll make better versions.

But yes, the system is trying to learn questions that it shouldn't answer.

One small thing that really bothers me about our current thing, and we'll get this better, is I don't like the feeling of being scolded by a computer.

I really don't.

A story that has always stuck with me, I don't know if it's true, I hope it is, is that the reason Steve Jobs put that handle on the back of the first iMac, remember that big plastic bright colored thing, was that you should never trust a computer you couldn't throw out a window.

Nice.

And of course, not that many people actually throw their computer out a window, but it's sort of nice to know that you can.

And it's nice to know that this is a tool very much in my control.

And this is a tool that does things to help me.

And I think we've done a pretty good job of that with GPT-4.
