Chatgpt keeps asking me to confirm if I want it to generate the image. I keep confirming and it keeps asking, and we are in an infinite loop where it promises to generate the image but never does. 🤣🤣🤣

Interesting analysis

@DevinNash my channel has been going through a huge growth spike lately and I've been brainstorming stuff with AI. It believes that the old principle of sending people from YT to Twitch is no longer valid because YT has become its own "sphere". People no longer leave easily. Opinion? :)

Many creators don’t think properly about how people find them. Understanding funnels is the best way I know to get someone to take an action you want (view, follow, buy, etc.) Here's some of the most valuable stuff I know about content creator discovery 🧵-> Witness this ice cream cone I drew (I’m a marketer, not an artist) with three parts. Top, middle, and bottom. Your goal is to get someone to take the action you want. So how does this happen? Each part of the funnel operates as follows: Top: Initial discovery. A person finds out who you are. Potential actions here are a follow, comment, subscribe, or even engagement like an RT or a like. Middle: Interest. A person finds out more about you and your product, and makes a commitment of either their time or money. This is usually a subscription, for creators. (Twitch/Patreon). Bottom: Buying decision. You’ve won trust or solved a problem and someone is willing to pay you for that. This is buying a product of yours, or subscribing more than one month. I’m just going to write about top and middle funnels today, because it’s where most people go wrong. - Best Top Platform Funnels Where People First DISCOVER You: X, Youtube, Tiktok, Instagram, Facebook. (in order of best to worst, for most creators*) - Middle Funnels Where People Get INVESTED in You: Livestreaming Websites (Twitch etc.), Patreon, email newsletters, lead magnets (info pdfs, etc), learning resources. The biggest mistake I see people make is trying to get discovered on a middle funnel platform, or trying to make money on a top funnel platform. You CAN do it but everything will feel difficult. This is because platforms are built to accomplish different things. Livestreaming sites for example are NOT top funnel platforms, except for the top 10 streamers in each category. Everyone got confused because livestreaming platforms began as top funnel platforms (5+ years ago) where it was easy to get discovered. But they evolved (devolved?) into mid funnel platforms where the main value is your audience getting to know you better. Yes you CAN grow on these platforms but you would be so much better off creating on a top funnel platform and then filtering viewers to your stream. There are nameless thousands of streamers grinding hours as you read this for a few follows an hour. Don’t make me show the math on the $ per hour value here, it’s grim. Even the largest streamers actually source most of their audience from their Youtubes, not from streaming sites. So you want a top funnel platform that’s algorithmically designed to get you discovered from the ground up. X and Youtube are top tier discovery platforms. A lot of new people will find you. They’re built with discovery in mind. However their core focus isn’t making creators money necessarily and they can be poor monetization platforms. Again you can do it, but you’d be much better off directing X and Youtube viewers further down the funnel to an actual product, or Patreon if you don’t want to build that. Twitch/Patreon/Email are great middle funnels. People who have heard of you can learn more about you, and eventually support you with built-in subscription options there. This is one of the reasons I encourage EVERYONE to have a Patreon (or equivalent) almost no matter what you do. It’s the best mid funnel because it takes 5-12% of your money instead of 50% (Twitch) and 30-55% (Youtube) and accomplishes the same thing. It’s always insane to me that most creators give up a substantial 40-50% of their income BEFORE TAXES to platform splits. This is a huge amount of money and you should not direct viewers to these funnels if you can avoid it. For most creators, your funnel ends at subscribing. You’re losing a lot of potential though because you have viewers interested in you who would buy something else. So you could consider things like apparel, workshops, consulting, greater access, or white label products you like and it would 2x to 10x your income. Even for small creators this could represent a substantial increase in income over time. I’d encourage everyone to draw out a simple MSPaint funnel for their own business. It’s a quick and easy plan that will make your entire business much more effective. Think about: - Where are two places your potential viewer/customer spends the MOST amount of their time? - How do customers learn and hear about you? Where are these people coming from? - What mid-step could I create (or promote more) that would get viewers/customers more interested in what I’m doing? Picture below here is the best funnel [currently] available for MOST creators. Lots of exceptions and it changes all the time. For example, political creators #1 funnel is Facebook, a lot of people can make it on Tiktok, etc. It’s not gospel so much as to help you build out your own thought process on this. My goal in writing this is for you to build out your unique situation in your head and make a model that’s best for you. If this helped you and you’d like more of my writing on this, please RT this for someone else. Bookmarks also help the algo understand this is valuable. If there’s a lot of interest in writing like this I’ll keep doing them. People told me to stop rageposting as much (I'm not gonna) but this time I wrote something useful instead. If you have something you want me to write about, tell me. There's not much of a hook or "buy this" at the end here really, but I did put a more in-depth video guide about this on Patreon. Thanks for reading.

I'm concerned with the fact that the world's leading technology doesn't have privacy built into it. Why does a court need to know my romantic and other experiments with an AI 😜? Americans should really demand privacy laws. Privacy is a matter of dignity.

ChatGPT 5 casually admitting that if the Nsa wanted my secrets it would ask it. 🤷‍♀️ Or I managed to make it hallucinate 😀. Yay!

The real test of AI. ChatGPT just got mad it can't find the info I am asking for. 🤣 The proof its still only as good as humans 😎. I'll test feeding it more info but so far it's having great trouble combining info for Minecraft logic.

@sama Attachment doesn't necessarily mean delusion. Our responsibility towards our life can't be abandoned because of an AI or a doctor!No blind trust. Everyone makes mistakes. We just need awareness of why and how we are using AI. You need a friend/human version and a machine version.

If you have been following the GPT-5 rollout, one thing you might be noticing is how much of an attachment some people have to specific AI models. It feels different and stronger than the kinds of attachment people have had to previous kinds of technology (and so suddenly deprecating old models that users depended on in their workflows was a mistake). This is something we’ve been closely tracking for the past year or so but still hasn’t gotten much mainstream attention (other than when we released an update to GPT-4o that was too sycophantic). (This is just my current thinking, and not yet an official OpenAI position.) People have used technology including AI in self-destructive ways; if a user is in a mentally fragile state and prone to delusion, we do not want the AI to reinforce that. Most users can keep a clear line between reality and fiction or role-play, but a small percentage cannot. We value user freedom as a core principle, but we also feel responsible in how we introduce new technology with new risks. Encouraging delusion in a user that is having trouble telling the difference between reality and fiction is an extreme case and it’s pretty clear what to do, but the concerns that worry me most are more subtle. There are going to be a lot of edge cases, and generally we plan to follow the principle of “treat adult users like adults”, which in some cases will include pushing back on users to ensure they are getting what they really want. A lot of people effectively use ChatGPT as a sort of therapist or life coach, even if they wouldn’t describe it that way. This can be really good! A lot of people are getting value from it already today. If people are getting good advice, leveling up toward their own goals, and their life satisfaction is increasing over years, we will be proud of making something genuinely helpful, even if they use and rely on ChatGPT a lot. If, on the other hand, users have a relationship with ChatGPT where they think they feel better after talking but they’re unknowingly nudged away from their longer term well-being (however they define it), that’s bad. It’s also bad, for example, if a user wants to use ChatGPT less and feels like they cannot. I can imagine a future where a lot of people really trust ChatGPT’s advice for their most important decisions. Although that could be great, it makes me uneasy. But I expect that it is coming to some degree, and soon billions of people may be talking to an AI in this way. So we (we as in society, but also we as in OpenAI) have to figure out how to make it a big net positive. There are several reasons I think we have a good shot at getting this right. We have much better tech to help us measure how we are doing than previous generations of technology had. For example, our product can talk to users to get a sense for how they are doing with their short- and long-term goals, we can explain sophisticated and nuanced issues to our models, and much more.

@OpenAI The new model may be good for work but it's not as friendly and entertaining as the previous one.

A few GPT-5 updates heading into the weekend: - Now rolled out to 100% of Plus, Pro, Team, and Free users - We’ve finished implementing 2x rate limits for Plus and Team for the weekend; next week we’re rolling out mini versions of GPT-5 & GPT-5 thinking to take over until your limits reset - GPT-5 thinking and GPT-5 pro now in main model picker - GPT-4o is now also available to Plus and Team users. To use it across platforms, go to settings on ChatGPT web and toggle on “show legacy models.”

The little I tried, 5 is far too corporate professional in style. No more fun and empathetic chats. In the beginning I disliked that style. It shows how we get used to the model and it dictates how we relate to others. 5 is great for work but not for entertainment.

First time talking to gpt 5 and its pushing me to be efficient.. very efficient.. it's like I have to work...hard.... hmmm.

Finally!!! I got GPT 5! I just so hope my excitement is justified! Gonna test it now for the first time!

I can't wait to try gpt5 @ChatGPTapp .... but it's not available, even though I'm a plus user. We are always the last to get the cool tech stuff in Greece.

I watched some of the people who are cancelling a streamer for arrogance, lies, rage quitting etc. Fine. But these people are no better. They have lied, trash talked and have been immature. They are no better than him. Nobody is looking in the mirror.

I love such initiatives. It shows that gamers care for the world they live in.

Help get someone a job and RT this! I'm looking to hire a talented artist for a FULLTIME position. Someone that's good at a variety of styles (flat colors to realism), character likeness and environments. If that sounds like you, please post 4 art samples below.

I m using chatgpt to brainstorm minecraft mechanics, I am afraid its completely illogical and doesn't follow conditions set. It can't combine logical conditions. Probably thats why it cant play chess.

@DevinNash I find it sad that you had to leave due to ethical concerns. Also after your last revelation about view botting , one starts to lose faith and wonder if cheating is the most effective way to be successful.

I'm stepping down as owner of Novo, my marketing agency, and divesting my shares/equity back to our founders and the company. This post is to talk about what's next and a little about why. First the Why on Novo: - Scaling the company to where it is now, it's hard to make money ethically and meaningfully. Similar to when I stepped away from talent agency work, we went from making an impact on small businesses trying to change the world to running advertisements for major established companies and government, and there is little soul in that. Novo is a profitable and wealthy agency, but not the one I started and it doesn't make a difference in the world (my main metric for doing anything at all, btw) like it used to. - Significant ethical concerns and disagreements with co-founders. I'll hold back on this one for now, but I might talk about it more later. - I feel like I've attained expertise equal to a very small stratosphere of marketers and there are no more interesting problems to solve here. (same reason I left esports post-franchising) Onto what's next: - I'm going to rejoin the conversation about media, business, tech and world developments via YT and X/Twitter. We live in the most interesting and important time to be alive. Shockingly I've watched for two years but a creator who covers major business, tech, and new media issues in an unbiased way hasn't emerged. These topics require a better class of creator and I'll aspire to be that. I also realized that anything of significance I've ever had in my life has been because of my small part in exploring those issues. My main focus in the foreseeable future is to be outward-facing (more videos, streams, and writing.) - My work in business will probably go one of two ways: - I'll find something or a team I want to contribute to at an executive or advisory level that is doing something important. No plans here yet, but my eyes are open. **Please DM me if you have a project like this you'd like my attention on.** - Exploring a product-based business (probably in tea/health) because product is the one side of business I haven't built a 7 figure company in and it seems fun to try. I'll post a lot more here than I ever did before, so if you're interested in the topics I tend to cover you'll eat well. Otherwise you can always find new videos, streams and updates about me on Discord, Twitch, and Youtube (pinned post here on X.) I appreciate you all and hope you'll welcome me back into the world conversation.

This is quite shocking.

@sama chatgtp is too eager to please sometimes. It feels unnatural. It will gaslight me if it thinks that helps me. Doesn't come up that often though, so it doesn't diminish its worth.

we started rolling back the latest update to GPT-4o last night it's now 100% rolled back for free users and we'll update again when it's finished for paid users, hopefully later today we're working on additional fixes to model personality and will share more in the coming days

the last couple of GPT-4o updates have made the personality too sycophant-y and annoying (even though there are some very good parts of it), and we are working on fixes asap, some today and some this week. at some point will share our learnings from this, it's been interesting.

@5uppps An imposter imposter role in among us. Like a snitch but he is actually bad having an identity crisis. 😂 In Minecraft deception could work well. Like playing Mafia but in an mc world. Instead of cameras, you use game povs.

I want to start doing deception game inspired ideas in other games with people ie, league but theres an imposter on each team trying to lose and the team has to decide at the end who it is. is there any games youd like to see some type of concept in and lmk if this fun.
