How to Stay in Love.Stay curious about your partner. Don’t assume you know everything about them. Each day, remind yourself what drew you to them, and ask yourself what still draws you to them. Hug them as often as you can, and DON’T STOP FLIRTING WITH THEM.— The Psychotherapist (@dedoyinajayi) June 9, 2023

“Dear Twitter,
I made a thing and I'm pretty pumped about it 🤓
It's a prototype of @softspacehq that lets you build a 3D knowledge map of whatever you're obsessing about *really* quickly.
(Yes yes there's #AI involved)
(Yes you can download it!)

François Chollet on Twitter
“"It's autocomplete" is not a helpful analogy to understand LLMs. A LLM is more like a database that lets query information in natural language. You can query both knowledge, and "patterns" (associative programs seen in the training data, that can be applied to new inputs).”

“what if it was easy to find long, monotonous blocks of our writing and ✨spice them up✨?
for clarity: this is showing using a green -> pink color scale to highlight short and long sentences. For a paragraph with very similar-length, long sentences, we ask for a spicier version.”

“🔍 Alternative Search Methods
Generic word search in applications makes it super hard to find something you vaguely remember. Depicted below are 4 different types of searches that a user could use to find content that seems hard to find.

“As a writer, this is mostly what I use ChatGPT for: to identify & then avoid narrative & stylistic clichés. If I have a vague idea for a story or I'm stuck on a line or scene, I ask ChatGPT how it would finish it, and then I do... not that.”
Louis Anslow on Twitter
“Hyperlinks take you somewhere on the web.
An ultralink could take you somewhere in the semantic universe.
Example: I create & use a neologism for observed phenomena. An ultralink would use ChatGPT to expand on concept, pull in other similar concepts on web. Create canon.”

Vision Pro comes with persistent World Anchors for objects, not just apps, so objects stay in space where you left them last! One step closer to an object-based metaverse where we live amongst smart, unique, interoperable 3D objects instead of living inside mega apps… pic.twitter.com/2uWdDB9mtr— aidan (@Aidan_Wolf) June 7, 2023

Top take-aways from the Vision Pro announcement:
- It's early days, the real innovation is going to be once it's out and people can figure out what AR native experiences are.
- Staying connected to your local environment and people is really a big deal to comfort and helps a lot for social acceptance, it's already hard enough to not take shit all the time from non-tech obsessed friends/family who think you look like you are snorkling inside when doing VR at home.
- Being very integrated with the existing ecosystem and paradigms is the way to go, even if you want to feel like they haven't pushed spatial enough in their UX, compatibility with 2D is hugely important to being useful
- Their hardware has more innovation in it than all other products they have combined
- The lenticular pass through eyes are pretty cool, we'll see if it's worth it or works well
- I was really surprised that they came out with realistic avatars, was expecting some more like animojis, but realistic (if it actually works) is definitely going to be more mainstream initially
- I actually think the mundane things like cooler tv watching environments/movie-theatre quality is amazing. Was years ago on Oculus, but is WAY better when done in AR
- I'm now bored of typing, leaving it at that.

“improbable” matches can happen if you’re strategic, bold, persistent, ask for what you want, enlist other people in your search most people don’t have the guts to really do this and follow through, which makes it a remarkably effective filter https://t.co/Z34RVwDkwY pic.twitter.com/XlAcJMDQYR— Visakan Veerasamy (@visakanv) June 2, 2023
