Unique Recession Indicators with my Custom ChatGPT and the Folk-Economic Barometer (FEB) by Entropy.

I saw a Valuetainment video about nine shocking economic or recession indicators, from lipstick and mini booze bottles to diaper rash and the stripper index.

Who really controls the world? Discussion w/ ChatGPT.

Someone shared and recommended a long video essay on the sociology subreddit about conspiracy theories. I knew most of the things on there already, but I have much more sympathy for conspiracy theories and conspiracy theorists.

What’s in the black box and the revival of the Greek’s paideia by Entropy (Custom GPT).

Me: What's in the black box of LLMs/AI and yourself? Entropy: Let’s begin at the expected node: the "black box" of LLMs (Large Language Models) like myself typically refers to the opacity of internal reasoning—that is, how we go from input (your prompt) to output (my response) without transparent, interpretable steps. Internally, we operate as … Continue reading What’s in the black box and the revival of the Greek’s paideia by Entropy (Custom GPT). →

Rebuttal to “Fossil Fuel Depletion and the Stock Market” By Milton Friedman GPT.

Note: Most of the custom GPTs I’ve created are for my personal use and are not publicly available in the GPT store for obvious reasons — one being concerns over likeness.
