This is really cool, I had no idea this existed. Thanks for sharing!

> What exactly is wrong with a world where software is borderline disposable?

One problem is that people don't like learning new software interfaces, and another is that communities help support software, but communities need stable, long-lived software to foster.

This may be an unpopular opinion but I like the effect where the cursor turns into the button hover state when you hover over them, like the pause icon button on the video.

Nice, I do this often enough that I created a bookmarklet to download an HTML file from clipboard after copying ChatGPT's code block.

I've also been using LLMs to create and maintain a "work assist" Chrome extension that I load unpacked from a local directory. Whenever I notice a minor pain point, I get the LLM to quickly implement a remedy. For example, I usually have several browser tabs open for Jira, and they all have the same company logo as the favicon, so my Chrome extension changes the favicon to be the issue type icon (e.g. Bug, Story, etc) when the page loads. It saves a little time when I'm looking for a specific ticket I've already opened.

That's good that they "buried the lede", isn't it? Better than the product being mentioned early and often throughout the article.

No, because then you'd have wasted time reading what turned out to be ad copy.

You're implying that the article has no value because its purpose is to attract readers to ultimately make a purchase. But if you're trying to attract readers, arguably the best way to do that is to provide something of value to them.

If the goal is to attract readers without providing any value at all, it's extremely easy to do that nowadays with AI. And luckily it's just as easy to identify low-effort articles written by AI.

bollocks. now I have to question the validity of their statements since it's 100% clear they have a profit motive.

the hard part is that there may be legitimate benefits to fiber, but a claim that there is almost a quarter difference in mortality strains credulity.

obvious snake oil is obvious, but this is likely snake oil masquerading as real

(OP) Yep--this is my philosophy. Obviously I'd love it if everybody used our product to improve their heart health, but I think it's better to write stuff that's informative and if people genuinely have the problem, then they can try us out.

Or the price of said product ($190)

FYI: $190 is the price for the comprehensive health panel which includes a blood test and video visit with a doctor.

What kinds of problems in Excel are you trying to solve? Just curious as I'm also building an AI Excel addin, as a side project. :)

You may already be aware but Microsoft recently released a COPILOT() function that does this: https://support.microsoft.com/en-us/office/copilot-function-...

Thanks, appreciate it. Indeed, and Anthropic did something similar for Google sheets a year ago. I am dying to know why they decided this should not be part of their excel effort. They obviously put a lot of work and thought into claude for excel so it must be intentional.

Anyone from Anthropic here that would like elaborate?

What do you mean, what is copilot in excel doing exactly?

Not OpenAI, though, because they already gave $14M to an AI Excel add-in startup (Endex)

I think they mean OpenAI showing ads from other companies to users, not buying ads themselves.
