This is amusing. What would happen if you gave GPT-3 free rein at a Unix prompt? Tried this just now (manually mediated as a precaution). It executed a couple of commands, then it tried to exit the shell and hallucinated the subsequent interaction. :D

Next, Dante proceeded to install vim (incidentally, he was predicting the output of the yum install command quite accurately, including the sizes of install files, lol)
Then he tried running it, lol. 😆 (He predicted it would not work, haha)
I decided to give him a helping hand and let him see what vim would have looked like if he could have run it. :)
And I showed him the result of the :help command:
If you get this far in the thread, I just want to say… Reversible computing will be the only way to keep the efficiency of digital compute improving after around 2030, and it needs much more attention. 😊✌🏼

You playing with fire, my man!
Like I said… it’s human-mediated (for now) 😉

lol yeah I mean I love today’s AIs, but the people who are scared they are gonna take over the world overnight and turn us all into nano-dust are just, frickin delusional 🙄
