Greetings,

If you don’t like ChatGPT, why don’t you go and build your own? No, seriously, with LibreChat you can set up your own version of ChatGPT. It might be more powerful than the original, especially considering that GPT is prone to anxiety.

• Open-source, self-hosted ChatGPT alternative LibreChat is customizable and lets you use multiple different models (GPT, BingAI, PaLM2, Claude) – it even has plugins, like web search and image generation. - GitHub
  
  
• With 500 lines of pure C code, OpenAIs Andrej Karpathy created a program to run a baby Llama 2 model on your MacBook – “just a weekend project” to him, and a wonder of software engineering to me. - GitHub
  
  
• Maybe ChatGPT isn’t getting dumber, but we’re getting better at noticing its mistakes – as long as OpenAIs models are closed-source, scientists will have a hard time verifying either hypothesis. - ArsTechnica
  
  
• You can change GPT3.5 outputs and increase its bias by making it anxious – using computational psychiatry, researchers found that the model responds stronger than humans to anxiety-inducing questions. - arXiv
  
  
• A whistleblower claims that Shopify has been quietly replacing support agents with AI, resulting in worse support for smaller customers – an interesting case showing the influence AI can have on an established brand. - Twitter (soon to be “X”) 
  
  
• AI is adding more workload and causing workers to feel like guinea pigs – managers that implement AI should pay closer attention to how these tools affect their frontline workers, because it’s not always positive. - CNN
  
  
• ChatGPT’s new feature, Custom Instructions, lets you specify how ChatGPT should behave and it will remember it for all your conversations (not available in the UK and EU yet). - OpenAI
