48% of productivity gains come from people doing things they couldn't do before. That sounds great but then you actually try to build something complex and it falls apart at the first real bug. One user scored a 2 out of 7 on productivity and said: "I had AI help me fix code on a website. But it took multiple passes to get the result I was after." That is literally my life.

@OpenAI Any plans to expand this to normal consumers on Plus and Pro plans?

@APompliano Isn't that the entire purpose of prediction markets? Legalized insider trading with a UI. I can't think of another reason that useless crap exists.

BREAKING: The Trump Administration is nearing a deal to "rescue" Spirit Airlines, per WSJ.
The deal involves a potential $500 million loan from the Trump Administration, receiving in return warrants to take a potential significant stake in Spirit.
This would add to the Trump Administration's stakes in Intel and various rare earth metal companies from 2025.

Interesting
US now extending the ceasefire for an indefinite length of time
The blockade will continue, so the economic pressure on Iran is still being applied
Some will see this as TACO
Others will cheer restraint vs resumption of kinetic activity
The key question here, IMO is: which party does time favor?

@SarahJa58058242 @missy73256 @DrCamiloOrtiz Looking back, were your parents wrong to do that? Did it teach you anything? Was that unhealthy?

@fekini @missy73256 @DrCamiloOrtiz Growing up I loved spinach, broccoli, peas, corn, carrots, and many other healthy foods. My parents fed me eggplant and onions bc that was their preference, and if I gagged on the food I went hungry.

@missy73256 @DrCamiloOrtiz Children can't because they don't know what is good for them. They would go for Pop-tarts, ice cream and french fries every time. They would also jump off a second floor if you gave them the option.

So either I'm stupid, or AGI is the most expensive marketing campaign in history and the hype exists to funnel money into a handful of companies. Because that has never happened before, right?
I asked AI to rank me against the global user base. It said top 1-2% globally. (AI told me so, but it is designed to agree with me, so who knows)
I use AI every single day. Multiple models, custom systems, optimized workflows and all the bla bla bla. I built a system with six independent AI experts that review ideas in parallel. Don't tell me I have the wrong setup.
IMO, what AI can do: research faster, analyze data, draft content, build prototypes, automate repetitive tasks. Useful. Not intelligent.
What AI cannot do: guarantee anything it tells me is true. Build a real product without a developer holding its hand. Stay coherent through a long process. Make a better decision than a human who actually understands the problem.
Here is what has happened when i have tried to use AI for real work:
- I was told that everyone can code now. So naturally, I am building an app. I can't read code. The AI gets the basic version working. Then I try to add complexity and it breaks. I test, find bugs, send them to Claude for review, cross-check Claude's fix with ChatGPT, send it to Claude Code, push the update, and find a new round of bugs. This cycle repeats endlessly. I spend more time debugging AI output than it would take a developer to just build the thing. Hey, but at least it is cheaper.
- I tried to analyze my personal spending for the past year. The AI generated a beautiful document. It was wrong. I had to go line by line catching mistakes. It would have been faster to do it myself in a spreadsheet.
- I analyzed stock market data going back to 1970. I had already done this analysis by hand (took forever BTW). The AI's version was shallow. I had to guide it step by step to reach a conclusion I already had. It improved my final output slightly and made pretty charts. But the "intelligence" was mine. The AI was a formatting tool.
- I used it for SEO and content creation. It finds trending topics well, or at least makes me believe it does. It creates great outlines. But the actual visual content it creates is generic. I spend so much time editing that I question why I didn't start from scratch.
Every time a new model drops, a press release says it beat some benchmark. Then you use it and the same dumb mistakes happen. Context vanishes. It hallucinates with confidence. The problems didn't change, just the version number.
I believe that I am a more committed user than a lot of the world population (AI told me so, but it is designed to agree with me, so who knows). And I believe we are nowhere close to human-level intelligence.
Follow me if you want to waste your time and get no value.
P.S: This post was written by AI. Every idea is mine. AI just organized it and made it look pretty. Which is kind of the whole point.

@DividendMil I totally agree with you. And I seriously don't know how to explain to my kid the reason why they need to learn trigo in school. I can't tell them that the only reason is just so they can pass their exam.
