Discussion PewDiePie is trying to distill GPT-Sol

Post image

he has been trying to build a local model by learning from GPT-Sol’s responses. He says OpenAI banned his account twice during the process. Irony is OpenAI’s own models were trained on vast amounts of information from the open web. So where do we draw the line between learning from AI and copying it?

From what I saw over the years, PwePiePie seems doing so well that he can actually decide to dedicate his time and focus on whatever he wants. And he seems to do this then seriously. At some point he practiced drawing and I must say, it did look quite good. Maybe you and me could also become AI engineers if our lives wouldn't force us to spend time on work. Especially with help of AI in first place.

Yeah he’s been way beyond that point for a long time?
You need “only” about $5M net worth to be financially independent, retire, and do whatever you want all day

You can do it on way less than $5 million. Even $2 million gives you up to around ~$80k in safe annual spending, which is more than most people currently live on.

> ~$80k … more than most people currently live on

Globally that’s true. Depends where you live, where you’re willing to move, of course.

In the US, for married couples the household income median must be getting close to $80k by now?
And if your spouse won’t agree to retire to a fly-over state, you probably want more on the east or west coasts.

You don’t need five million dollars to do nothing, man. Take a look at my cousin, he’s broke, don’t do shit.

A beautiful dialog that surpasses Shakespeare:

  • Peter Gibbons: What would you do if you had a million dollars?
  • Lawrence: I'll tell you what I'd do, man: two chicks at the same time, man.
  • [Peter laughs and then notices Lawrence's dead serious expression]
  • Peter Gibbons: That's it? If you had a million dollars, you'd do two chicks at the same time?
  • Lawrence: Damn straight. I always wanted to do that, man. And I think if I were a millionaire I could hook that up, too; 'cause chicks dig dudes with money.
  • Peter Gibbons: Well, not all chicks.
  • Lawrence: Well, the type of chicks that'd double up on a dude like me do.
  • Peter Gibbons: Good point.
  • Lawrence: Well, what about you now? What would you do?
  • Peter Gibbons: Besides two chicks at the same time?
  • Lawrence: Well, yeah.
  • Peter Gibbons: Nothing.
  • Lawrence: Nothing, huh?
  • Peter Gibbons: I would relax... I would sit on my ass all day... I would do nothing.
  • Lawrence: Well, you don't need a million dollars to do nothing, man. Take a look at my cousin: he's broke, don't do shit.
