Everyone knows how to use Google, but it takes a certain skill and knowledge to use Google effectively.

I think that sometime in the near future, knowing how to phrase something to GPT, DALLE, etc will be a very valuable skill for humans to have.

Indeed. I tried many prompts, given to mini Dall-e and the generated art is located at insta/pramatias alongside with the prompts. Actually i didn't know that insta prohibits downloading of the images, so they will be uploaded to additional sites. Is there any site which has the beauty and simplicity for uploading albums like insta? Devianart is pretty bloated.

Actually after thousand of prompts to mini Dalle i found that the more of a programming language you consider the prompt, and not as a natural language, the better and more accurate it is. In that regard operator first is better, almost like lisp. I tried prompts with parentheses but the nesting didn't affect the results.

I think that with the modern information bombarding, everyone needs to be information-analyst and programmer, information-analyst and engineer, information-analyst and doctor. Dalle will help us construct images which follow some mnemonic rules which can be represented in art. That way we can memorize many corners of the information we want to remember, and know how to not lose the plot of the project in question. Like an image for every function, or an image for every module, or for every enum and trait.

Colorforth did exist in the past most probably we can make artforth with the speed and ease of modern tools.

It used to be a great skill when google's behavior was reasonably static and predictable, therefore learnable. Today if you open 2 google instances on your phone and computer they'll both likely return different results. Move to the next city block, and again, same problem. You want to google the same query again? If the algorithm thinks you didn't find what you were looking before the first time, you'll get once again different results.

In this way I think these language transformers will be much better for searching information. Not because of their great comprehension abilities or indexing prowess, but because their behavior will be static and the training data reasonably good. Soon enough someone will find better ways to display their learned associations and they'll become great search engines (if you can index the content relevant to you that is).

100% agreed. I already see myself doing this with Github Copilot. If I write a comment or start a line of code in a certain way, I get a much better suggested code completion.

I feel like this is a given in a lot of sci-fi I read. "Jokester," an Asimov short story, is premised on people called "Grand Masters" who know how to ask the right questions of Multivac, the globe-spanning supercomputer that appears in a few of his stories.

I'm using GPT-3 to write Solr queries when my parsing fails, so I agree with this.
