Bumping this now that we've had a few days to try out ChatGPT Agent. Are we doing the thing? (I have not, so far, found a Thing for it to try and Do.)

For those looking to understand the issue I found this excellent and I agree with most of it.

*once again looks over at the Days Without a Crashout sign on my desk and grits teeth while getting back to writing up the generalized reasoning model that speaks in broken English and got IMO gold, I'm having a totally great day how are you?*

Okay, definitely not otherwise taking any capital gains for the next three years just in case. I wonder who else will do likewise.

A preschool (this is real) requires that all students get checked for lice before coming the first day. You do this by taking them to a place people check kids for lice. Does this make the risk of lice on that first day:

If anything, I worry that thought experiments train people to expect counterintuitive or difficult answers, because only those get written up. Philosophy courses ought to *start with* "Is it okay to kill a guy for a bagel? No."

Polymarket has acquired QCEX, a CFTC-regulated exchange and clearinghouse, for $112 million. This paves the way for us to welcome American traders again. I've waited a long time to say this: Polymarket is coming home 🇺🇸🦅

Debating how I feel about this - I was going to cover the IMO result tomorrow but if this is true then there's a strong argument to wait until Google's results are verified so as not to reward defection. Thoughts?

...and back to work on building it, then, I guess.

Was playing around with the new agent feature and used this prompt just to see what would happen. I promise I did not write the part that’s circled, it gave that command on my behalf 😳

I'd like to see them try.
