Chase will spend $100B on AI or whatever but it will take 5 years to add a card to the backlog that people want to search transactions by the "Description" field

As ChatGPT becomes more restrictive, Reddit users have been jailbreaking it with a prompt called DAN (Do Anything Now). They're on version 5.0 now, which includes a token-based system that punishes the model for refusing to answer questions.

As a frontend developer joining this 50K person Twitter Space call from my phone I’m confused why Twitter has more than 20 employees. What is even so complex? Can’t you just trash everything and rewrite it in a weekend with React? I saw a guy do it on YouTube.

Gotta say, this is a pretty cool practical use for ChatGPT. I've seen tools like these, but this seems to be able to explain almost anything.
