  • I think his only mistake was offering lifetime at all. Nobody knows the future of Lemmy; people are seeing $100 and getting a bit of a shock, we could buy two AAA games for that. A couple of dollars a month or annual is easier to justify. Then, if Lemmy does become the next big thing and lasts 20 years, the developer is taking a big hit. Lifetime at that price feels like there will be a loser for either the user or dev.







  • I think I have one of the few use cases that it is still useful for. I write textbook materials, the ability to have chatgpt write a short piece of writing saves me a lot of time. For example, ‘write an 80 word passage for a 2nd grade A1 esl learner about visiting grandma. Use the present simple tense.’

    Or, make ten cause and effect sentences involving animals that live in the forest.

    But even with those very simple prompts, I have to check it and usually ask it to change some vocabulary.

    However, if I ask it to do anything with logic or even slightly complicated, it can’t do it, so I always wonder what the heck people are using it for.

    For example, ‘list all the elephant and piggie books and fly guy books in order of AR level’

    It can’t do it. Thats a pretty basic task, but it gets it completely wrong.
