🏗️ J'ai travaillé fort avec des gens de Construisons Montréal pour sonder les partis municipaux sur leurs propositions pour construire plus de logements. Jetez-y un coup d'oeil!

Oh good, ChatGPT is getting "erotica for verified adults" later this year

We made ChatGPT pretty restrictive to make sure we were being careful with mental health issues. We realize this made it less useful/enjoyable to many users who had no mental health problems, but given the seriousness of the issue we wanted to get this right.

Now that we have been able to mitigate the serious mental health issues and have new tools, we are going to be able to safely relax the restrictions in most cases.

In a few weeks, we plan to put out a new version of ChatGPT that allows people to have a personality that behaves more like what people liked about 4o (we hope it will be better!). If you want your ChatGPT to respond in a very human-like way, or use a ton of emoji, or act like a friend, ChatGPT should do it (but only if you want it, not because we are usage-maxxing).

In December, as we roll out age-gating more fully and as part of our “treat adult users like adults” principle, we will allow even more, like erotica for verified adults.

Fun fact: despite the enormous land mass, the population-weighted density of Canada — basically the density experienced by the average person — is the same as Denmark and close to the Netherlands.

Canada and Denmark are 3,000 people per km², while the Netherlands is 3,400/km².

Not sure it will enshitify in the traditionnal way, because their business model are more based on a "pay as you go" model. They don't make enough money yet though. We'll see I guess

Émilio Gonzalez @res260.bsky.social · 9d

This is what I'm proposing. The only different thing from now is that the default, when you create your account, is more restricted. You can then decide that your default settings are different for your posts

Émilio Gonzalez @res260.bsky.social · 9d

I don't think so. Most (I'd say more than 95% ppl) truely dont care about replying to posts of ppl they don't know.The 5% who care are mostly ppl like you and me who tend to be a higher degree of "terminally online" and tend to have more emotional responses (idk about u but this is the case for me)

Émilio Gonzalez @res260.bsky.social · 9d

I disagree, I like seeing replies from people I don't follow. This is one way to discover new people to follow!

Émilio Gonzalez @res260.bsky.social · 10d

Change the default reply policy to "mentionned users + your follows + users who follow you" instead of "everyone". This would probably fix some problems

I wonder what the solution is to reducing the number of unhoused people… What if we offered them a permanent house? Wouldn't they just them become unhoussed-less people? Just… people????

Just a thought idk

Émilio Gonzalez @res260.bsky.social · 10d

This is one of the craziest NIMBY article I have ever read. It's about the chinatown business community coming together to oppose a potential social housing project.

"Chang cites unhoused people, drug users and people with mental health problems as reasons why residents feel unsafe."

Montreal Chinatown groups oppose proposed social housing project

A collection of organizations in Montreal’s historic Chinatown neighbourhood says a proposed social housing project needs to be reconsidered.
