I'm doing free zoom hangouts on Thursdays/Fridays teaching people how they can utalize different AI tools and giving people a crash course to get started. Let me know if you would like to be involved

Holy fuck

Humanity's last exam

Deep Research might be enough for me to pay for Pro right now

Replaced Google Assistant with Perplexity Assistant and have remapped my Bixby Key to be ChatGPT advanced voice. Who wants to know how to do this?

Deepseek is fantastic BUT it's MASSIVELY overhyped. Don't fall for the BS, the people I see posting about it I know for a fact aren't following the space closely at all. People think the AI bubble has burst LOL its hardly even started.

Deepseek won't hurt OAI in the long run.

Deepseek is open source.

OpenAI have already pulled apart the DS model and learning what might work better for theirs

Deepseek don't have access to OpenAIs weights

OpenAI already have better models just not released yet

I like DS but let's be real

Australia Day feels off. It’s become a day for performative patriotism and thinly veiled racism, celebrating something built on the dispossession and harm of Indigenous peoples. If anything, it should focus on progress, reconciliation, and inclusivity. "True blue Aussies" are just weird man

Returning to my roots and getting back into some band portraits

Didn't realise how long it had been since I was last doing this but It reminded me just how much I missed it

I waste so much time engaging with stuff that pisses me off. I'm just going to block stuff that annoys me now. I expell way too much energy being mad about stuff outside of my control

So day 1

A Nazi salute

Searching for # democrat on major social media platforms has zero results

Speaking poorly of Trump on Tiktok is now flagged as hate speech

I'm not even in the USA but this sort of shit playing out on the World stage is terrifying

Deepseek R1 is on par with OAI o1 and it's opensource.

That's absolutely mind blowing

The speed of progress in the space is so damn crazy.

Said it before I'll say it again, AGI within 5 years or less

You don't accidentally throw out a Nazi salute

Barnacle Geese are crazy, their chicks hatch and then just get them to just freefall off a cliff and maybe survive

Tiktok creators mad the platform is banned.

You don't own that audience.

This is why an email list will always be the king of sales and marketing. You need to diversify your audience and understand that a platform can be shut down at any moment

Using Chatgpts new Task feature to give me a little pep talk each morning.

We can use available tech to help us be kinder to ourselves.

I'm incredibly self deprecating and having a little prod each morning will help me rewire that

Oh man just wrapped up my 3rd year as the Parkes Elvis Festival photographer. It's the 2nd biggest Elvis Festival in the World. Hundreds of events, thousands of photos and very sore feet but friends and memories for a lifetime. I'd be lost without this Festival now

Cameras packed ✓
Running shoes ready ✓
Blister band-aids stocked ✓

Back for another wild week at the Parkes Elvis Festival! Can't wait to sprint between stages capturing legends tearing it up again. My feet already hurt but the Elvis magic is worth every step! 📸👑

Almost at the end of New Year’s Day, and I’m done with the faux altruism. We wear fast fashion made by exploited workers, use gadgets built by child labor, and stream music on platforms that fund military companies. Let’s face it—we’re all kinda a bit shit. Let's try be nicer to each other.
January 1, 2025 at 11:28 AM
Been my own worst critic this year - that little voice constantly saying I'm not enough. But tonight, I'm making a different kind of New Year's promise: to be as kind to myself as I'd be to a friend. I know my worth, I know my potential. In 2025, if you're not lifting me up, you're in my way

This is absolutely fuckin mind blowing

OpenAI are absolutely demolishing the competition. Not even by a little bit, like they are so far in front
December 20, 2024 at 11:31 PM
There's a huge number of people arguing we won't see AGI within our time.

O3 by OpenAI is a significant leap. My money is on AGI within the next 5 years if not sooner

Righto Google Turn it up

"Willow completed a standard benchmark computation in under five minutes that would require conventional supercomputers approximately 10 septillion years (10^25 years) to solve - a timespan that exceeds the age of the universe"
