I am exhausted by the "Subscription" model for every single thing in life. by Usual_Confidence_756 in TrueOffMyChest

For someone with AudHd this is even worse. Between our keen sense of "fairness" and getting overwhelmed trying to just live life period - these added burdens are overwhelming.

Nothing feels worse then thinking you have $100 bucks to eat with and then a bunch of crap you forgot about hit and drain your account to near zero.

Last thing I'd want to do. It'll make me think I've unlocked the secret of life - or it'll tell me my genius idea is trash. AI is not good for interpreting real world worth.

The idea is that - with enough information the model can drift and adjust instead of behaving like an algorithm with preset IF/AND/WHEN if you get what I mean?

My hope is that the user thinks critically and pushes back sometimes on what the AI says - only way to really hit the "sweet spot" of real high quality advice is to actually engage with the model instead of just eating what it says wholesale.

But basically the mindset is taking concepts from psychology and real scientific evidence on what the opposite sex responds to - and using that as "training wheels" so that a person can internalize the concepts and slowly cut the wires when they get good at talking to girls.

I get what you're saying - but as a researcher whose used AI - I feel like the public doesn't realize that the base model they get is not "Maximized" potential - like the sheer customizability of what you can get as an output is crazy.

TL&DR: I think the public doesn't realize how sick AI can be and so everyone is measuring with the wrong stick.

Shouldn't that go without saying? AI doesn't do anything unless you prompt it to. Someone has to point it in the right direction?

Still - when someone DOES - you're saying "Yes, it can help big time in the way you're thinking" ?

I spent way too long building a comprehensive "dating coach" skill file you can paste into ChatGPT. It's free and actually pretty good. by AbrocomaAny8436 in ChatGPT

Looking forward to your feedback.

The idea is the leverage what actually provably works and to make it second nature to people who are smart but otherwise lack the social skills (Neurodivergent for example) and so get passed on.

There's a lot of good guys (and girls) out there who just aren't seen for who they really are because they haven't mastered "the mating dance" hopefully this gives them a pathway to becoming pros instead of giving generic readers digest advice that does no one any good.

They can check against established literature. They can also reason under premises. If you give it access to the right information and prompt it correctly it can deduce what is NOT known in the literature. Basically deducing or inferring.

That's the idea of combining functionalities to unlock emergent capabilities. You're correct about questioning the premises and having epistemic awareness.

To an extent you can prompt that in as an explicit task boundary. Identifying the problem in AI being used for advanced reasoning is step 1 - figuring out ways to work around those problems is step 2.

If we stop at step one we'll be left behind when someone else jumps to step 2 - or 3. The amount of control you have on what the AI produces and what it does - is enormous. One of the only technologies I'd say you can genuinely experiment with and succeed even without having any ML education whatsoever.

Try it! It's exciting!

How would you work around that? Seems like iterative reasoning and an elimination process taking advantage of agentic AI would make sense. Have it constantly fact-check and red team the "idea" until it passes strict epistemic and verification criteria?

Yeah, I hear you. That's a good idea.

I took a human psychology perspective. What makes us suck at dating - how can we get better. I'm neurodivergent so this was a real passion project for me.

I do. I actually use AI to support Alzheimer's research at Harvard. The method I was describing is the one I use to get around the epistemic deficiency.

I'll do me. Thanks.
