       | 
       | We need an AI curriculum bot - that will keep track of all the
       | AIs or LLMs on can talk to...
       | 
       | I actually had chatgpt write up a syllabus for me... and that was
       | interesting
       | 
       | But we need to be able to canonize an AI engineering learning
       | path now that's evolved due to the massive amounts of tangents
       | one can take with whatever LLM /AI path one can follow...
       | 
       | Imagine navigating this stuff as a smart 17 year old version of
       | yourself?

         | managed to combine really large amounts of current info, in a
         | way that was efficient to consume.
         | 
         | compare and contrast to "too much information" including hype,
         | ads and heresay, constantly.
         | 
         | lastly there is no "we" in AI. The problem with AI is not AI,
         | it is the intentions, capabilities and actions of the humans
         | behind it.
         | 
         | Papers, please! next in line

         | events you need to be able to go around OAIs censors. Even
         | better you can implement and fine tune your own LLM- I can see
         | all these resources available but don't have the know how to
         | take full advantage of them.
         | 
         | Maybe this disparity goes all the way up- can we know there's
         | not some Singleton out there creating AGIs already?
