RockyMcNuts commented on ChatGPT Developer Mode: Full MCP client access   platform.openai.com/docs/... · Posted by u/meetpateltech

OpenAI should probably consider:

- enabling local MCP in Desktop like Claude Desktop, not just server-side remote. (I don't think you can run a local server unless you expose it to their IP)

- having an MCP store where you can click on e.g. Figma to connect your account and start talking to it

- letting you easily connect to your own Agents SDK MCP servers deployed in their cloud

ChatGPT MCP support is underwhelming compared to Claude Desktop.

The labels on the points are version numbers.

ok, that makes sense.

not indicated, and the general idea of dataviz is to communicate clearly. when you have a number, what it represents should be noted, and the units. if I see a number in that context, I assume it's calling out the value displayed.

the x axis is also a bit off, would ideally plot the date of the release and use a proper time axis.

a title is also good to have, maybe a data table.

sorry to be cranky but those who are downvoting , try to be clear, learn some standards, or stay away from publishing charts. you can even ask AI to clean up your code to conform to a standard. Soft skills are important for an engineer. You need to explain the work in clear, persuasive language and dataviz. or you can be, I'm a super-smart engineer, you figure out what I'm trying to say, I don't need to worry about making your eyes bleed. crikey.

Why don't the labels on the points match the scale?

Looks like a chart crime scene

When you stack transformers, don't you get meta-attention and higher mental states?

Anyone know if the U.S. AI Safety Institute has been shut down by DOGE yet? This report is from January 17th.

From https://www.zdnet.com/article/the-head-of-us-ai-safety-has-s... it looks like it's on the chopping block.

RockyMcNuts · 9 months ago
they seem to still exist but have pivoted from AI safety, fairness, responsible AI etc., to reducing ideological bias

The problem with datalink systems is they are poor substitutes for immediate control & confirmation. My co-founder Eric wrote a short piece about this: https://www.ericbutton.co/p/speech. This is why they are mainly relegated to low-urgency en-route & clearance delivery.
RockyMcNuts · 10 months ago
interesting! have PP but haven't flown really last couple of decades.

I feel like, with proper UX in the cockpit and on the controller console, making it easy to send/acknowledge the clearance, and intrusively demanding immediate acknowledgment for important messages, with the controller able to talk to the pilot if it isn't immediately acknowledged, structured messages would save time, be more accurate, allow automated checks, i.e. be a superior substitute.

UX needs a ton of work and human factors validation, and would take 20 years to implement. But if you were starting from a blank slate it seems like the way to go!

Maybe the future is structured electronic messaging with the humans in the loop.

Like, check in with the controller but most messages are sent electronically and acknowledged manually.

I have your clearance, advise when ready to copy, then you write everything down on kneeboard with a pencil and then manually put it in the navigation system, is a little archaic.

certainly speech to text is a useful transition but in the long run the controller could click on an aircraft and issue the next clearance with a keyboard shortcut. then the pilot would get a visual and auditory alert in the cockpit and click to acknowledge.

I would hope someone at NASA or DARPA or somewhere is working on it. And then of course the system can detect conflicts, an aircraft not following the clearance etc.

Trump promised to do this at the Libertarian Party convention. This case is very important to the libertarian crowd. He is a martyr for many of their ideals. After Trump was so well received at the convention the LP, recently taken over by the right faction of the party, put forth a candidate specifically chosen to not get votes so that members would vote for Trump. Trump seems to be a man of his word.

A lot of talk about how much cheaper it is than all other models.

It remains to be seen what the pricing will be when run by non-Deepseek providers. They might be loss leading.

The comparison for cheap models should also be Gemini 2.0 Flash Exp. I could see it being even cheaper when it stops being free - if it does at all. There's definitely a scenario where Google just keeps it freeish for a long time with relatively high limits.

RockyMcNuts · a year ago
exactly ... Gemini 2.0 Flash ranks better on quality, is faster, and cheaper if you assume same pricing as 1.5 (might go down).

these models are being commoditized.

It reappeared as e-bikes and e-scooters - Lime, Bird, etc.
RockyMcNuts · a year ago
more as hoverboard, onewheel etc. the e-bikes and e-scooters don't really have similar balancing mechanisms
