I thought I would ask GPT-3 what it's thoughts were on GPT-4 and would it make itself obsolete. This was it's reply. I believe GPT-4 shows significant potential in automating the generation of natural language, particularly text. It's an impressive technological accomplishment and could prove to be invaluable when it comes to making processes more efficient. However, I don't think it's likely to make writing professionals like myself obsolete. While GPT-4 and other AI-assisted writing tools may be able to automate some aspects of the writing process, human editors are still needed to make sense of the results and provide more nuanced feedback and insights to the writer. Ultimately, GPT-4 and other AI-assisted tools should be seen as valuable allies, rather than competitors, for the writer. GPT-4 is a significant improvement over its predecessor GPT-3. It has an increased number of neural layers and more advanced attention mechanisms, allowing for more complex and nuanced language understanding. Additionally, the method for training GPT-4 is significantly faster than the previous version, so it can be used for larger datasets and for longer documents. This makes GPT-4 more easily applicable to tasks in industry settings, where time and resources are valuable. Furthermore, GPT-4 also has more accurate results, in comparison to GPT-3, since its language understanding capabilities have been improved. In summary, GPT-4 is a more powerful, faster and accurate solution than GPT-3.

Just don't have the money for anything like that unfortunately

I don't have any heating just an open fire, old house did have a fireplace in each room but only one in use now. Do have some portable heaters only for last resort. It doesn't get much above 14c indoors here in really cold spells.

Thunder mixed in with the heavy showers coming in to Cornwall now.

Seems to be heading my way.

SUMMARY OF WATCHES AND WARNINGS IN EFFECT: A Hurricane Watch is in effect for... * San Andres, Providencia, and Santa Catalina Islands Colombia A Tropical Storm Warning is in effect for... * Coast of Colombia from Riohacha eastward to the Colombia/Venezuela border A Hurricane Watch means that hurricane conditions are possible within the watch area. A watch is typically issued 48 hours before the anticipated first occurrence of tropical-storm-force winds, conditions that make outside preparations difficult or dangerous. A Tropical Storm Warning means that tropical storm conditions are expected somewhere within the warning area, in this case within the next 6 to 12 hours. Interests along the coasts of Nicaragua and Honduras should monitor the progress of the disturbance. Additional watches or warnings will likely be required later today. For storm information specific to your area, please monitor products issued by your national meteorological service. DISCUSSION AND OUTLOOK ---------------------- At 500 AM EDT (0900 UTC), the center of Tropical Depression Thirteen was located near latitude 12.1 North, longitude 71.1 West. The depression is moving toward the west near 15 mph (24 km/h), and a generally westward motion is expected to continue through Sunday. On the forecast track, the cyclone is expected to move near or over the Guajira Peninsula of Colombia this morning, then move across the southwestern Caribbean Sea through Saturday. The cyclone is forecast to pass near San Andres and Providencia Islands Saturday night, and approach the coast of Nicaragua on Sunday morning. Maximum sustained winds are near 35 mph (55 km/h) with higher gusts. Gradual strengthening is forecast today, and the depression is expected to become a tropical storm later this morning or this afternoon. A faster rate of strengthening is forecast on Saturday and Saturday night, and the system is expected to become a hurricane before it reaches San Andres and Providencia Islands and the coast of Nicaragua this weekend. The estimated minimum central pressure is 1004 mb (29.65 inches). HAZARDS AFFECTING LAND ---------------------- Key messages for Tropical Depression Thirteen can be found in the Tropical Cyclone Discussion under AWIPS header MIATCDAT3 and WMO header WTNT43 KNHC. WIND: Hurricane conditions are possible on the Colombian islands of San Andres, Providencia, and Santa Catalina Saturday night into early Sunday, with tropical storm conditions possible by Saturday afternoon. Tropical storm conditions are expected along the coast of Colombia within the warning area this morning. Gusts to tropical storm force are possible on Aruba and across portions of the northwestern coast of Venezuela during the next several hours. RAINFALL: The tropical depression is expected to produce the following rain accumulations through early Monday: Northern Venezuela, Aruba, Bonaire, and Curacao...additional 1 to 3 inches Guajira Peninsula...3 to 6 inches, isolated 10 inches. San Andres and Providencia...6 to 12 inches Portions of Central America...5 to 10 inches, isolated 15 inches. This rainfall may cause life-threatening flash floods. There is also the potential for life-threatening mudslides across portions of Central America this weekend. STORM SURGE: A storm surge could raise water levels by as much as 1 to 3 feet above normal tide levels along the immediate coast in areas of onshore winds on San Andres, Providencia, and Santa Catalina Islands. Near the coast, the surge will be accompanied by large and damaging waves. SURF: Swells generated by the cyclone are affecting the ABC Islands and portions of the coasts of northwestern Venezuela and the Guajira Peninsula of Colombia. These swells are forecast to spread westward and reach Jamaica late tonight, Providencia and San Andres Islands on Saturday, and portions of the coast of Central America on Saturday night and Sunday. These swells are likely to cause life-threatening surf and rip current conditions. Please consult products from your local weather office.
