I think the primary argument for banning TikTok should be based on reciprocity rather than moral and/or security concerns. We can make similar arguments about the negative effects of Facebook, Instagram, and etc. even from the POVs of other countries, but the key issue here is that China heavily restricts foreign apps and services from operating in their market. If China is unwilling to allow US companies to compete fairly in their digital ecosystem, why the hell should we continue to grant Chinese firms unrestricted access to our market?
Yeah, I saw that in the FAQ, but this was literally my second question in the convo, so not exactly a "long" conversation. Seems like it should be able to handle context for at least a couple of exchanges, right?
Just played with Gemini Ultra for like 10-15 mins, and right off the bat, it made mistakes I've never seen GPT-4 do.
To give you an example, I asked Gemini Ultra how to set up a real-time system for a TikTok-like feed that matches card difficulty with user ability. It correctly mentioned "Item Response Theory (IRT)", which was a good start. But when I followed up asking how to implement a real-time IRT system, it suddenly started going off about "Interactive Voice Response (IVR) system" - something totally unrelated and never mentioned before. Never had this kind of mix-up with GPT-4.
Seriously, throwing shade at the 'launch fast, iterate fast' mantra is like saying the Wright brothers should have aimed for a Boeing 747 on their first go. The beauty of the MVP approach isn't in launching with a pile of 'shitty half-backed features.' It's about getting it in the hands of real users as quickly as possible so that you can start to iterate.
