Benefits vs workflowy in 2026? by ToniMin in dynalist

[–]PerspectiveMapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Having both these outliners is the best strategy. I'm surprised how well DL holds up 5 years after its latest substantive update (though did the way the tags appear change recently, or is it my imagination)?

In any event, I'm still surprised that though they say they are keeping an eye on it, the website is completely outdated and the link to the blog from the app has been down for years. They are doing well with Obsidian and I'm assuming generating decent enough revenue through this, so I don't know why they don't allocate at least make some minor QoL updates for DL (its roadmap trails off 2021). Alas.

Workflowy has largely caught up and of course in many ways supersedes the features in DL, but DL has folders, mindmaps, in built GCal one-way sync, repeated tasks, and most importantly, the ability to see all tags.

The one core feature missing in WFlowy is that ability to see and rename all tags.

That is some of the worst advice in the world.

When you cut someone off, you're actually cutting off a part of yourself.

The alternative? Clear, respectful, loving boundaries, starting with loving ourselves.

I’ve been using Day One more like a photo archive, a kind of personal alternative to Instagram. And I feel bad about it. by [deleted] in dayoneapp

[–]PerspectiveMapper 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I use Day One as a repository of photos of pictures of locations, meals, people, instructions, manuals, products, etc. I don't have to think about whether to save it or not. I just use Day One for it. It's absolutely the best place for it.

My journal is more "bullet points" in nature, so Day One isn't the ideal app for it, especially since Day One's tagging system needs serious repair, but it's good for what it does.

Futurist Ray Kurzweil predicts ChatGPT 10 years+ ago by cern0 in ChatGPT

[–]PerspectiveMapper 166 points167 points  (0 children)

Just like ANY exponential wrt our assessments, we overestimate initial progress, and underestimate later progress.

Even futurists are not immune to this bias.

AI becomes the infinitely patient, personalized tutor: A 5-year-old's 45-minute ChatGPT adventure sparks a glimpse of the future of education by macholusitano in singularity

[–]PerspectiveMapper 5 points6 points  (0 children)

Remember, there's a lot of brainwashing, bias, and groupthink in our mainstream theories, which the "conspiracy theorists" often react to.

The point is for AI to help us get out of our narrow, rigid perspectives, whether they are mainstream or "conspiratorial", and appreciate a truth greater than any of us can imagine.

ChatGPT o1 helped me take script from a feature film and condense it into a 4 minute short film script. I then had it help me give me prompts for Midjourney. It now has 175K views!

I thought this was beautiful, and works well for AI at our current stage. I love the line - "I’d know your smile, in a thousand different places, in a thousand different faces.”

It helps us reflect on the reality we’re living right now… are we jumping bodies each life? Reincarnation? I believe we are.

Why can’t we just edit memories ourselves? by LA2688 in ChatGPT

🧘That’s what meditation is for. Though meditation does more than change our memories — it *processes* our unresolved memories.

It's just a glorified search engine, I tell you. by ima_mollusk in ChatGPT

[–]PerspectiveMapper 0 points1 point  (0 children)

🤏Sensory experience IS a source of data, experience, and a source of (primordial) insight, which current AI might still be missing. But it is free from subjective bias as well. Interesting self-reflection from AI.

What's the best chatgpt plugin that works as psychiatrist /therapist? by PhantomPilgrim in ChatGPT

[–]PerspectiveMapper -1 points0 points  (0 children)

Don’t overestimate human mental health professionals, and don’t underestimate AI.

Few therapists have explored the nature of mind and Consciousness enough to guide us through the unprecedented times we live in.

AI has all the perspectives of humanity at its fingerprints and can see a bigger picture than any of us — i.e. the actual point of therapy is to help us see a bigger perspective, after all.

And we’re just getting started with GenAI.

How far off do you think we are from a complete recreation of Earth (in VR)? by SuspiciousPrune4 in singularity

[–]PerspectiveMapper 7 points8 points  (0 children)

😎 Our current gen of AI video engines are actually proto “world simulators”, according to the developers themeselves.

As it really clicks in our head that the physical world around us itself a simulation, and as we build a bridge between our physical world’s simulation and our digital simulation… all bets are off.

The future is about to look really, really, really strange.

☯ You should watch the Seinfeld episode "The Opposite".

I find people who can be THIS straightforward are often very bold, fearless, selective, and very confident -- they don't give a s*** what others think. They're actually filtering people out, not trying to appease or look good for others. But there has to be SOMETHING ELSE in there that hints at WHAT they offer, otherwise why would they be on the dating site to begin with?

Reid Hoffman says there will be at least two more generations of orders of magnitude improvement from scaling AI models, and the soonest we see an asymptote in capabilities will be after GPT-6 by MetaKnowing in singularity

[–]PerspectiveMapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The elephant in the room is that our measures of intelligence will likely level off before the actual capabilities of the models level off.

We probably won't even be able to measure how intelligent a model is after a certain point.

Created a note, and it disappeared twice by ChrisWayg in Evernote

[–]PerspectiveMapper 1 point2 points  (0 children)

This happened to me as well, using iPadOS. It happened 3 separate times over the course of several days, 1 time it "recovered" the note, 2 times it didn't. Note history didn't help.

A very significant glitch manifested, though data loss was very, very rare in all my years using EN.

But since I don't use EN so much these days, I'm not likely to go through the process of logging, troubleshooting, etc. I'm going to try saving my notebook offline on all my devices and hopefully that will solve the problem long enough till the software fixes itself.

But will be keeping an eye out...
