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.

But...

I notice that I have like a visceral response to being scolded by a computer.

And I think, you know, that's a good learning from deploying or from creating a system and we can improve it.

Treating our users like adults is a thing I say very frequently inside the office.

GPT-4 has enough nuance to be able to help you explore that without...

and treat you like an adult in the process.

GPT-3, I think, just wasn't capable of getting that right.
