This is gonna sound crazy and very hyperbolic and out of control, but I really believe it when I say that the new feature that ChatGPT just released last week is actually larger than actual ChatGPT itself and its memory. And if you ask anyone from Silicon Valley, if you ask me last week, if you ask the random investor off the street, they would have told you last week that AI and intelligence was rapidly decreasing to zero. It was becoming commoditized. And these large language models that were paying tons of money, into training these things are losing money. But I think that all changes beca
Well, it's really interesting. You're you're stoked, and I'm kind of, like, having an existential crisis, Josh. Like, okay. So, like, to summarize what you just said, I think OpenAI just won the race, the the AI model race, and that's because memory is the moment. Right? So, like, I I'm I'm serious. Like, so the TLDR, right, is
firing this week.
Chat GPT can now reference chat history, so your entire chat history, all the different chat windows, conversations you've had with it, to get a better picture of who you are and give you a more personalized experience. That's what the the corporate tagline says. Right? But there's a much more important and, like, in my opinion, sinister reckoning behind this, which I I actually documented here in a tweet, which is people are about to just confide their darkest and most personal secrets, fears, concerns to this model. Right? And what do they get in exchange for that? Well, they're gonna get a
we put some, let's get into the details of, like, this actual Sure. Memory update because I think it's it's one of these things that it's actually a very incremental, like, marginal change that I think Josh is getting very long term, like, bullish, excited about the implications of that change. So I I have my ChatCBT page pulled up. So you guys are now all looking into a window of my recent conversations with ChatCBT. And each one has, like, these different every time I opened ChatGPT up, it opens up a new chat. It opens up, like, a new log, a new stream of, like, dialogue with ChatGPT. And I
Well, the the the point around this is, if you look at all those chats on your sidebar, David, those are essentially, really supercharged Google searches. Right? Mhmm. You know? Mhmm. You're asking about Ethereum's market cycle. You're you're looking at some random theory. Right? But the the model doesn't, like, track your personality or your thoughts or your moods or your kind of, like, vibes across either of the chats. Right? So there's a really important context that's missing kind of between those different chats. Right? And at the end of the day, what people really want, and technological
there's no, like, deep, like, breakthrough in terms of technology here. There is this is more of a mechanistic change with how OpenAI ingests and interprets and manages the data that you give it as you are using ChatTpT. So that's that's why it's a pretty subtle change. But, like, you know, some small, like, small but, like, precise and targeted changes can lead to, like, very big outcomes. So I understand that. Josh, why do you think that this is such a big deal? Like, why why are you saying that this is the biggest update since ChatGPT itself?
Yeah. So for the first part, there has been memory in ChatGPT before. It's just been short form tokens. So it would remember sentences about you. It's like, this is David. He's this old. He's a male. He lives in this place. And it kind of has this general overview. But the new technology breakthrough i
