       | I wrote significant parts of an academic paper today with gpt3.
       | It isn't a novelty. I get better and better at working with it to
       | produce amazing things!

         | Do you mean you actually wrote parts of a real paper you are
         | writing, or just produced convincing text that reads like one?
         | 
         | If the former, how do you use it to do that, and what are the
         | limitations?

             | Heh, I guess it could read like that. I just can't see how
             | GPT3 could be used to help with a genuine paper (like
             | copilot does for code). If it's just cheating, that's not
             | very interesting.

           | First, I put my title and abstract in, then have it generate
           | the introduction. That worked weirdly well. Then, I had a few
           | ideas I was having trouble writing, and so I'd give a prompt
           | and then take what it gave me, improve it, and use it as a
           | prompt again. It really generated some excellent material.
           | 
           | However, if you ask for quotes with citations, I think it
           | just makes the shit up. Careful with dealing with a non
           | truthful oracle. But, with critical thinking, playfulness and
           | a strong handle on the intellectual material, it can be a
           | great writing assistant!

       | ideas and resources, and receive support from like-minded
       | individuals. Such spaces typically offer a variety of amenities
