@iruletheworldmo Given that you’re saying “Mythos level” I think there is a logical flaw in what you say. Obviously Mythos is the first Mythos level model. Accessibility is another thing of course.

‼️huge open ai news 5.6 will 100% drop next week and will be the first mythos level model they’re a little panicked due to revenues and mythos coming up this will be an incredibly strong model, could easily name this gpt 6.

i’m excited to see these type of posts when ai cures all disease.

Am I stupid or is that literally correct

@legalfutures Is it just me? I always find these articles annoying because the picture with them is virtually always one of a judge or someone associated, rather than the actual subject of the article.

Barrister fined for accusing senior judge of misconduct loses appeal zurl.co/VHnPp

You think we’re better off out of the EU? When China is on the rise, Russian aggression faces everyone in Europe and Reform’s friends in the US are doing their best to destroy international order? This country wasted billions of pounds and billions of hours pursuing a policy that amounted to self-harm, for zero tangible benefit.

Streeting must be really out of touch if he think the rise of Reform is because people want to rejoin the EU. Much as I would love it to be different, that ship has sailed. We need to focus on making this country safe and prosperous and a great place to live as a vibrant independent country. Not fighting old battles that have been lost.

I’m a lawyer too. On Op4.5 I gave it all the cases it needed to know everything about an area of law, and it spent a long time assuming and not reading them. Lawyers need assurance that the model will read and digest every line - it cannot ever get a gist from the first 100 pages and assume the rest. Page 700 might be crucially important. I solved my issue with repeated iterations and grepping for key paragraphs and details.

@Aria_Churchill lmao - alright this s actionable thank you

When do you reach for other models instead of Claude? What can we do better? Hit me with all of your frustrations. dms open. If you can give me detail (e.g. specifics/transcipts) - it'll help a lot in finding out exactly what we need to do to improve the next model

@mcdermottkc_ I might restart my membership, which I cancelled out of disgust at the stupid jury tampering.

The Labour Party sending an email to members asking for help in Makerfield with a strapline of “Together, We Win in Makerfield” is surely beyond parody !

@sama I like both it and Claude, but recently switched to a team plan to be able to use agents. Now my rate limits are ruined…

codex is the best AI coding product and we want to make it easy to try. for the next 30 days, we are giving companies that want to try switching over two months of free codex usage.

@specialopsmag I dealt with a very senior member of the forces in a Court Martial appeal, who had a negligent discharge in exactly these circumstances. Insisted on the armourer examining the weapon - but it is always the operator’s fault.

Weapon clearing station gone wrong.

@CrawfordTartan @anon_opin So remember it by noting that the “e”s in “discrete” are distinct and separated by the “t”.

@anon_opin For my fellow cunts .. “Discreet (with double 'e') means careful, cautious, or unobtrusive, focusing on maintaining secrecy or modesty. Discrete (ending in 'te') means separate, distinct, or individual parts.”

Learn the fucking difference between "discreet" and "discrete", you cunts.

@sama Not viable for UK or EU lawyers who need data sovereignty and GDPR compliance.

big upgrade for codex today! try it for non-coding computer work.

Such an important video: the Chair of the Bar Council, Kirsty Brimelow KC, with a concise, point by point, summary of why reducing jury trials is not the way to reduce delays in the criminal justice system. @TheCriminalBar #JusticeNeedsJuries

@GaryMarcus Plainly important lessons for anyone using AI in production. A fairly basic point is to store your backups separately from the main data.

Total AI disaster, totally predictable

@emilysbremer So true. I find clicking send has the effect of immediately highlighting every error.

The best way to find typos is to reread the draft you’ve already circulated.

@zachrose51 And Chief Executive or Chambers Director

@EastMidsCounsel So your buyers tend to have titles like Managing Partner, Head of Chambers, Legal Operations Manager, Director of Compliance and Chief Innovation Officer, that sound right?

We just killed cold email: Introducing Draftboard. The world’s first AI Sales Director that outperforms any human. Comment your website and we’ll find you intros to 10 dream prospects for free.

@zachrose51 Right potential category for sure.

@EastMidsCounsel Alright - found some of your customers: 5 Paper Buildings. Sound right? Going to use these to track down real prospects at your dream customers and map intro paths to them

@johnsweeneyroar As a criminal lawyer, isn’t it basically a tenner? What changes is likely not the price so much as what you get for it.

Twitter: does anyone know what's the going rate for a bag of heroin in Clacton On Sea these days?

@TobechiOgazi You say that, but I am more than capable of seeing it flash up on the screen and still senselessly clicking send.

@EastMidsCounsel That feature has saved many of us from embarrassment. 😄 That is literally a life saver.

Lawyers routinely write "please find attached" and then send the email without the attachment.
