> But none of the tests actually test how fast can you learn

Some tests that actually test how fast can you learn are aptitude tests. I was given such tests by only two companies among hundreds of applications.

A software solution provided by the OS or language can make this hardware solution irrelevant.

One thing to try is disagree, put down "I told you so" collateral, and commit. If the party you disagreed with doesn't produce the expected result then they should lose something. Cost is a forcing function; without it there are no consequences.

It might be a combination of efficiency and generating value. If you're efficient enough to generate $1000/hr but the org has no opportunity or product for you that can generate this, efficiency in performance metrics alone doesn't move the company's bottom line.

Good job on building something cool and putting it in front of people.

The biggest flaw I see is that it generates marketing-speak. It fails to answer well the most important question.

Here's what it gave me:

"Beddit is developing an, engaging online forum that will revolutionize digital communities via structured discussions, dynamic networking and unique engagement tools. Focused on aligning the often chaotic world of online networking, Beddit offers users a vibrant and organized platform for connecting, learning, and growing. Key functionalities include advanced topic filters, an interactive voting system for significant contributions, as well as real-time discussion monitoring for maintaining quality discussions. As we further enhance our product, Beddit aims to incorporate machine learning for personalized user experiences, AI moderation, and predictive analytics to anticipate trending topics, creating the future of online forums."

Here's something better I wrote:

"We'll make a better Reddit. Users visit a website to post links and comments and we save them in a database. A background process ranks news based on number of views and puts them on the front page."

GPT-4s response doesn't say how the site works. The description above does.
