do you have a very strong opinion about how companies should work?

"No"

Okay, does Dario Amodei? He thinks more than half the workforce should "just" be replaced. That's a strong opinion! Do you see what I am saying?



I can't speak for other people, but our strong opinion about how companies should work is to reduce the massive amount of chores and tedium that exist in our work days today.

With the company GPT, we want to tackle things like: 1.) having to answer a repeated question from a colleague, 2.) answering questions to coworkers that are purely informational, and eventually 3.) things like standup updates, written updates to leadership on status, etc.

I think human interaction at work is one of the most valuable experiences if you're lucky enough to have good colleagues and interesting work. But I think they should almost entirely be around creativity, decision-making, debate, etc. rather than sharing information that exists elsewhere.

Your product is a bot that SPEAKS as an alternative to OTHER PEOPLE talking.

See... is that really a strong opinion? Like look what I asked you. How should COMPANIES WORK?

I'm being a little funny about this. I guess my point is that, there are a lot of Grapevines, including all the companies whose technologies you use. Paul Graham invests in all of them, and so he will be fine. But what about YOU? A soft and friendly Enterprise Sales tone... like give me a strong opinion. People at Google and Meta have better sales teams and technology. But they don't have strong opinions. Do you get it now?


what's your point, you ask for strong opinion without any context, what answer do you expect?


I don’t think anyone knows what you’re saying.
