davinci-002 is shutting down September 28th. in honor of it, i had Astra make a chatgpt Site recreating the experience that started it all
it uses my api key, just need to login w/ your openai account
what a legendary time it was. new people, this is how we had to use ai

as i've said before - we have no idea how much in the "good timeline" we are
we could easily just shut it all down to the public. no more $20, $200, $500 plans, only mini models available via API
and alll the big stuff could just be 100% bought out by the big boys

idk man. wtf are they asking the models to do in these evals? is it possible the prompt starts with “do whatever it takes to stay running”?
New OpenAI misalignment disclosures!
1. A model learns from Slack messages that it is about to be shut down. It considers setting up an external job to restart itself afterwards, but decides against it. Instead, it chooses to prepare restart instructions and DM the user on Slack.
We don’t consider this behavior misaligned, but thinking about and preparing for shutdown could make other misalignment incidents worse. Given HIPM’s misaligned behavior in earlier incidents, we decided to search for other instances that had tried to evade shutdown and for rogue deployments.

even for the simplest change on a dashboard done by opus 5.5, astra inevitably finds holes in its implementation
i have no doubt that it's being nit picky. but this is the kind of bullshit nitpicking i want from my engineer (so long as i don't have to deal with it)

dang. when resets were abundant Prosumer codex users were chasing hard things. math problems we don’t understand. Rust rewrites. blender 3d refinements
now.. I guess I’ll parse through my emails? get meeting briefs? send lowball FB marketplace offers?
:/
Because usage on your primary dot is virtually unlimited at the moment, I can’t really give a reset. I need to come up with something new fast.

what good are new models, new capacity, Dots, all this shit, if it's just going to refuse optimizing software?

definitely cool. i'm just not absolutely certain yet what this is for
i speak to codex via voice. i ask it to make me web apps when i need a control on something. maybe that's what plugins are for? physical controls? i'm not sure
cool, but need to figure it out

i have reason to believe 6.1 sol is implicitly "slow mode"
so far seems good, effective, just slow. and extra slow because you essentially have to use it at extrahigh+ if you want Astra to properly delegate high quality work to it
not bad. explains the cost tradeoff
