I'm curious about times you've seen a prompt or the results of the prompt being extremely creative, original or mind-blowing in some way that tickled something in you. Images, videos, audio, text, doesn't matter.<p>For me, it was simulating a Linux terminal in ChatGPT, but I'm struggling to find other novel ideas that make me go, "oh, you can do that".
Two best:<p>CHESS IS A FUN SPORT, WHEN PLAYED WITH SHOT GUNS<p>COWS FLY LIKE CLOUDS BUT THEY ARE NEVER COMPLETELY SUCCESSFUL.<p>These are from MegaHal that entered 1998 Loebner Prize Contest. MegaHal was able to produce mind-blowing insightful sayings but most were just bs.<p>It seems that creativity is easy for computers. Just push randomness through some generative algorithm. Curating and selecting the best output makes all the difference. The ability to select, critique, and understand what is generated and what the meaning is is much harder.
I wouldn’t say it’s terrible but it’s certainly not great.<p>Perhaps @brongondwana can shed some additional light on it but from what I recall speaking with a friend there a few years back that it was just postgresql full text search - I’m not sure if they have anything like elasticsearch etc…<p>I must say it would be really nice if I could cmd+r like I do with zsh+fzf.
I was surprised out how you can define arbitrary grammars using arbitrary formulation and it would follow it. Of course you have to redo the prompt every time there is an update... such a pain<p><a href="https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/flow/chat/prompts/dm.cue#L27">https://github.com/hofstadter-io/hof/blob/_dev/flow/chat/pro...</a><p>What surprised me is that you don't need all those "fancy" specialty libraries to do this (like MS/Guidance), I originally did this before they came out, and they seemed to limit the possibilities
